Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin F8B015 Hide Away Cord Concealer White
Customer Review: Best wire capacity and length for the buck that I could find
Summary: 5 Stars
I have an 18 foot wall with the TV/Receiver in the middle and speakers out on the sides plus network, phone and power cables all running along the baseboard. I needed a product that could hold a lot of wires and came in decent lengths at a reasonable cost. This product by Belkin fit all the requirements.
As others have said, this product is not rigid and comes in a box that's about 5 inches cubed with the concealer all rolled up. I bought two of them, one to house all the cables running left of the TV and one for all the cables going right of the TV.
First thing i noticed is that there is a 1/2 foot discrepancy between what is advertised and what you get, it's actually only 7 1/2 feet long not 8 as advertised. So keep that in mind when measuring.
There are two adhesive strips, one thick one which is used to secure the concealer to a surface like the floor, baseboard or wall and one thinner one which is used to seal the concealer in it's rectangular shape.
I would recommend that you stick the concealer unfolded to your surface first. When I put together my first one, i unrolled it and then used the thinner strip to stick the edges together to form the shape of the concealer. However over the 7 1/2 foot run I ended up getting a corkscrew effect , it wouldn't go together flat. So I took it apart and then stuck it to the floor board, gathered my cables and then sealed the concealer up in it's rectangle shape and that worked great.
One thing to note is that it's somewhat difficult to add cables later. YOu don't want to break the seal too many times or the concealer won't seal on the edge and it'll just flop open and won't do it's job. So make sure your cable arrangement is pretty firm before you put them all in this product and seal up the edge.
In the one i have mounted right now (i've only done one of the two) there is a 16 gauge speaker cable, a two prong power extension cord, a speaker cable and an RCA video cable and there's probably still 1/2 it's capacity left for more cables. The other side which i haven't mounted yet because i'm not firm on the wiring will have two network cables, a 16awg speaker cable, a regular 2 wire speaker cable and a phone line cable and a cable TV cable. I'm not sure if that's all going to fit, it'll be close.
I've mounted this concealer to the baseboard which is white so it blends in really well with behind the concealer and the end result is very nice and clean. I looked at a bunch of different wire management products but nothing could touch the length and capacity you get for the money that this Belkin product gives you so i'm giving it 5 stars.
I almost forgot to add, the outside dimension when it's all folded together is ~3/4" on the narrow side by 1 1/8 inches on the wide side so the inside dimensions will be slightly less than that.
