The Little Bob 6-pak

I highly recommend the Little Bobs. I have tried several cord management system including velcro wraps and plastic snap holders, to name a few, and prefer this one. It's the right size for smartphone and headphone cables. To use them, I quickly wrap the cord around my fingers, slide the looped cord off my fingers, and slip the loop into the Little Bob (the ends of the cord stick out of the LB). When I want to use the cord, I just pull out the looped cord. Trust me--you'll see how easy it is to use! Great way to keep all your cords neat and makes it easy to quickly see the end of the cord so you know what kind of device the cord is for (e.g., lightning, audio, micro...). Once in the Little Bob you can hang the cord by the loop, or put them in a drawer or backpack. The Little Bob holds the cord sufficiently tight so it doesn't slide of the cord. For the price, ease of use, and effectiveness, I'm very pleased/

This product is useful for some cords, but I have found Velcro ties to be more versatile. These may be better for certain types of cable, but in general, I like Velcro ties better due to the ability to wrap various size cords easily. Cords that have large connectors will not work easily with this product, and some cords won't work at all if they are too inflexible and have large connectors.

Ok... If I'm honest these are pretty much brilliant. As simple as they come, yet they fill a niche that you can't deny. I purchased these to help organize a charger carrying case that we take on trips with us. These are being used to secure USB cables inside of a series of elastic loops inside of a carrying case. You definitely get exactly what you'd expect. And they are all but perfect. Pros: - Inexpensive way to handle cord issues. - Keep you from over bending cords like you would often times trying to tie them etc. - Fairy rigid and durable, though time will tell. Cons: - Slightly smaller than I'd Hoped. - Have trouble holding medium to large lengths of USB cable without sticking way out each end. Overall happy with the purchase.

I've been using the Little Bobs for the past six months to organize my EarPods and changing cables for my iDevices in my messenger bag and around the house. I have to say, they are my favorite means of keeping the cables tangle-free and out of the way. I have tried the wire twists, various 'bones', and other gadgets, but these seem to work the most effectively. Just grab the cables by one end, fold, fold, fold, and slide into Little Bob! Other reviewers have commented about 'pinching' the cables or bending them to an unnecessary degree, but that has not been my experience at all. After several months of frequent foldings and unfoldings, all my cables still work like new and they are neatly and easily stashed in my bag.

These are okay, I thought they'd be more of a soft rubber, but they are more like a hard plastic and are in fact very bulky for the amount of cord you can put in them. If you had just the right amount of cord they would be a good space saver. The larger ones work good for utility cords, so far that's the only use I've found that I've been happy enough with them to keep using them.

They're quite stiff and have a bit of a rubbery texture that grabs cords so you really have to crush both tube and cord and fight with it to get the cord through. And because of the shape and inelasticity, there is a narrow range of stuff that is the right size. In-ear eadphone cords are too small and fall out easily, but an iPhone charging cord needs sharp, small radius bends and a lot of shoving or tugging to get it in or out. And small bends are terrible for the wires inside, so the little bobs aren't really for electronics, near as I can tell. Shoelaces? Perhaps someone can tell me what they're good at doing, maybe we can get a product description to match and I'll revisit this.

Bottom Line: This is the best cord storage tool I've found. I've tried multiple tips, and while several have been good, The Little Bob is best in class. I've ordered the larger version, "The Aunt Wanda" to get started on organizing my larger cords. The Little Bob handles phone charger sized cable, and was even able to take on the Mag-Safe cord on for my Macbook.

I ordered these at the same time as a 12-pak of their big sister Aunt Wanda. I found the Wanda size to be perfect for organizing multiple power cords, such as TV, DVD, and Apple TV cords all in one Wanda. I ordered these Little Bobs to do the same with small round cords such as for cell phone and tablet chargers. These are as nice and as well made as the Wandas, but the Little Bobs, though considerably smaller, are a bit too big for my use. The inside diameter is 3/4's of an inch. I can fold three sets of small charger cord and even with three they fit too loosely inside Little Bob. I would find a product like this with say a 1/2 inch inside diameter better for organizing my "charging station". Little Bobs would work best for perhaps one to two lamp sized power cords or one medium thickness HDMI cable or the like!
