Why You Can Trust CNET Hide unsightly cables with this 125-inch raceway kit for $11.53
Can't stand those ugly cords running down your walls and along your baseboards? Here's an easy, attractive, affordable fix.
See the cords? Nope, they're nicely hidden by this inexpensive raceway kit.
Nothing ruins decor like ugly black cords. If you've ever wall-mounted a TV, you know what I mean. But even the cords running along your baseboards are an unsightly mess. Before you start drilling holes in walls and enduring the grief of fishing those cords through them, consider a simpler solution: a raceway kit.
Like this one: For a limited time, and while supplies last, the Yecaya 125-inch Cord Concealer Raceway Kit CMC-03 is just $11.53 when you apply promo code AYK73WBM at checkout. Regular price: $19.
That's for a smaller version of this product, one designed to contain just a single cord. Want space for more? Here are similar, slightly larger, options:
The Raceway Kit CMC-02 for $13 with the on-page 15%-off coupon and promo code 02LYECAYE.
The Raceway Kit CMC-01 for $13.59 with the on-page 10%-off coupon and promo code 01YECAYE.
There are dozens of similar products available on Amazon; I picked up the CMC-01 one last year to hide the power cord running from a wall-mounted TV. Luckily, the pieces included were exactly the right length, so I didn't need to do any cutting. (Your mileage may vary, naturally.)
I also opted not to drill the track into the wall; I used the double-sided tape, which worked just fine. The whole process took about five minutes, and I'm really happy with the result.
This is a simple, effective, inexpensive solution to the horror that is cord-clutter. If you've found a better one, by all means share it!
