Pop up Outlet for Countertop with 65W USB C Fast Charging - Recessed

Our review of this pop up outlet finds it best suited for kitchens, home offices, and conference tables where a clean, recessed power solution is needed. The single biggest reason to buy is convenience: it installs in a small 2.5 in to 3-1/8 in hole and hides flush when not in use, while still delivering a mix of AC and USB charging options including 65W USB-C fast charging. It is a practical pick for anyone wanting a compact, tamper-resistant power station that keeps a countertop tidy without sacrificing multi-device charging.

Key Features

• Compact fit: Designed for a 2.5 in to 3-1/8 in cutout, it fits small island and desk grommet openings to preserve surface space.
• Multi-device charging: Four AC outlets plus two USB-C and two USB-A ports allow up to eight devices to be connected simultaneously for shared workspaces.
• 65W fast charging: The Type-C ports support up to 65W output for faster power delivery to laptops and chargers that accept PD speeds.
• Safety built in: Tamper-resistant 15A receptacles, overload protection, and fire-resistant ABS+PC materials increase safety for kitchen and family use.
• Simple installation: The spring-loaded pop up mechanism and included 6 ft 14 AWG/3C extension cord make installation a straightforward drill, insert, and secure process.
• Recessed, clean look: When closed the unit sits flush with the work surface for a discreet, integrated appearance on countertops and desks.

Who It's For

This unit is ideal for homeowners fitting a kitchen island, renters who want a removable grommet power station, and small offices or conference rooms that need a tidy shared charging point. It will suit anyone who values a flush, pop up solution and needs a mix of AC and modern USB-C charging including 65W output.

People who require full surge protection, industrial power capacity, or specialized outlet types should look elsewhere; similarly, buyers wanting built-in network or audio connections should consider a different, more feature-rich desk module.
