They're not THAT big.
The folding wossname doesn't look durable enough for its target market, i.e. me; the traveller with lots of things to charge up, who will fold and unfold this thing a lot, and who will not treat it with any respect at all.
HOWEVER. The three-into-one bit has me delirious with joy. Hotels never put enough plugs in the right place. Never. It's a rule of the universe. |

No, not that big. Hyarge! (Agree with you re hotels though)

Hyarge?
haven't heard that before, and google wasn't helpful in deciphering its meaning :-)
Not that big? The face of the UK plug is 4.85 x 4.4 cm (1.9 x 1.7 in). A 3-prong plug in the US is 2.54 x 2.54 (1.0 x 1.0 in). Depth here can vary here as there's no fuse in the plug. |

Hyarge == huge + large, I think. IOW, very very big. :-)

We gots 240VAC going through it, and a fuse.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BS_1363 has more info on our plugs than you ever wanted to know.
It's not a daft design. Although anyone who has stood on one may disagree. |

The term 'over-engineered' comes to mind. :-)
