Pros

My husband complains about the grren lights at night since one is in our room. Works perfectly, stop complaining. Weak charge on the usb ports is my only complaint.

A great power supply surge protector by a trusted well known company. Apc is a great brand. Item appears to be of high quality.

Cons

Faulty and grounded out to cause circuit breaker to trip. The clamp rating on this is 500v, which is practically useless. Apc requires a list of equipment to be submitted within 10 days of purchase using “the included warranty card’.

It feels like it won't last very long and does not have the satisfying click to it.

All you know is 3 years later your toaster stops working.

The $150,000 equipment protection is another great reason to purchase this product, as are the two usb charging ports.

I did not receive a registration card for the $150k protection plan however so not sure how that will workout if needed "hopefully never"

Good value for the money i paid

Price was reasonable and would recommend to anyone

Competitiveness

This one replaces another apc power strip/surge protector that we bought 20 years ago, so it's a no-brainer to get another of t... Read More

This is not to say that nothing will ever happen with this unit, but i have had many other brand name units and never had an issue.
