I definitely have a local bias but I believe this one has the best of all criteria. From compact to safety (improved 2007 version) and robustness as well as being polarized.

It's an interesting mix of the US 3-prong and the compact Euro designs. Indeed much more compact than type E or F.

I don't like the Swiss plug. The 3x socket has a problem where a bulky charger will block all three sockets. I'd almost always rather have two sockets with some space between them. And non-recessed sockets, which the Swiss socket allows while Schuko doesn't, make me uneasy.

  Since 2016 only Type 13 sockets with a recessed socket hole may be brought onto the market. [1] [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN_441011#Structure_of_the_Standard https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN_441011#Structure_of_the_S...
