"So no one told you knockoffs
were gonna be this way… 👏👏👏👏"

While we won’t call out names, we will call out the inferior knockoffs that simply don’t measure up. Think of them like Ross’s leather pants: they looked like a good idea, but in practice? A total disaster.

At Docking Drawer, we’ve seen it all — the clunky, the copycats, the curly-corded. And at the end of the day, the message is clear: when it comes to electrical products, dupes rarely make the cut. Let’s break down some of the most “could-have-been great but weren’t” knockoffs in true Friends style.

1. The One That’s All-Around Underwhelming

“Could this BE any more clunky?”

2. The One That Stole From Us 🤨

Kind of like when Joey “borrowed” Chandler’s clothes… only less funny.

3. The One With the Curly Cord

…oh. My. Gawd. Just like Janice, this dupe’s always popping back when you don’t want it to.

4. The Ones That Cause Friction

Remember when Ross and Rachel were “on a break”? Yeah, that kind of friction. Only these outlets cause it every time you try to open and close your drawer.

5. The One with the Corner Mount

Like Joey’s fridge in the corner of his apartment — awkward, clunky, and not exactly user-friendly.

At the end of the day, you don’t want a knockoff outlet any more than Ross wanted Rachel to find that pro/con list. While some dupes may look somewhat similar at first glance, they all lack Docking Drawer’s thoughtful engineering and patented, integrated safety features.
