Made from durable plastic, the cord organizer is sturdy and has a sleek appearance that’ll keep wires out of sight, out of mind. The large box is long enough to house a five-outlet extension cord and is designed with two little openings on the back. This allows wires from your fan, hair iron, or computer to plug into the extension cord outlet inside without drawing attention. To buy: $27 (was $29); amazon.com. The cable manager box also comes with a lid that encases wires, allowing the whole thing to really blend into the background. And since electronics sometimes get hot, you’ll appreciate that the lid has ventilation holes, too. Additionally, shoppers confirm that the enclosed feature is ideal for those who have curious children or pets who like to gnaw on electronics. Really, it’s stylish and securing all at the same time. All you have to do is to put the fully-enclosed side of the box toward the front, and no one will be the wiser. It’s available in white and black and comes in sizes small and large; just keep in mind that if you’re planning to connect multiple devices, go up a size. People have used the cable box to hide network cables from the TV stand, work computer wires in their at-home office, and even electric toothbrush chargers and curling iron cords in the bathroom. “All of the cords under the desk in my home office for the computer, keyboard, speakers, printer, etc were a big jumbled mess,” wrote one shopper who also declared, “Everyone needs this!” They even said that “this cable box makes the area look so much more neat now” and confirmed that it’s “a million times easier” to clean under their work stations since they don’t have to get under every single cord. Another who lives in a small home and uses multiple surge protectors shared, “I really didn’t like how they looked being out in the open, but these boxes were a perfect solution to help hide them away. I have one in each size.”
