Item three: the washing machine.
A washing machine uses about 1,150 kilowatt-hours of energy every year. Therefore, it is not a good option for a power strip because it uses a large amount of electricity.
To avoid the extension cord getting too hot or causing a short circuit, connect the washing machine directly to a power outlet. Tumble dryers are the same. It's not recommended to plug them into a power strip due to their high power consumption.

I'm not saying you shouldn't use it, but be sure to plug it in. Avoid using an extension cord because it can quickly overload the power strip.
Number 5. A microwave.
Saying that this little metal box uses no energy at all is not true. Every year, a microwave oven can consume approximately 70 kilowatt-hours of electricity. Hey, it's not unimportant. That's why it's not recommended to use an extension cord.
In sixth place, the person who makes beer
At first glance, a coffee maker may not appear to consume a lot of energy. It uses a lot of power, estimated at 165 kWh per year. Plug it in.
Number 7. The crescent moon
Making toast every morning consumes between 500 and 1000 watts per year! It's a lot for such a small device. However, it is not advised to plug it into a power strip.
