Monster - Core Power 800 USB 8-Outlet Surge Protector - White

works great love the USB connections but there or way cheaper ones out there that have all the same specs

I have used many Monster Brand products. I have had no problems with this surge protector.

This surge protector is extremely handy. No longer do I need to keep up with the block that allows me to charge my phone from a wall socket. I can just charge it (or any USB device) from this instead, and have it protected from dangerous surges. It is sturdily built, with extra room between some of the sockets to accomodate large wall wart-type plugs. Of course, surge protectors are one of those things you buy hoping that they're never truly put to the test. So far, this one hasn't blocked any surges I know of, but I have several other Monster brand protectors and they've all stood the test of time. This one's claim that it won't melt or catch fire if it stops a big surge is comforting, but again, I'm not willing or able to put that to the test. Overall, in my experience, this is a great, high-quality surge protector that comes with the added convenience of being able to charge USB devices safely without needing a special wall plug adapter.

This is a great surge protector. My previous one had shorted out, and im just lucky nothing caught on fire because my previous one was charred and the plug to go into the power outlet was partially melted. This one is supposedly fireproof and rated very high for all forms of protection. My only problem and critique with it. Is when I went to buy this they only had this one with 8 and one with 12. I didnt need the one with 12 and that was also super expensive. But I really needed one with 9 or 10 and they didnt have one in between. Thats my only problem is I wish they had more of a variety at the store i went too. But its very good.

This surge protector has seen me through a few thunderstorms now, and I've never had any device so much as hiccup. The built in USB charging ports are very useful as phone chargers, or to save room charging something like an HTC Vive controller, where the normal adapter takes up an excessive amount of space. With Belkin devices not being as readily available in many (other than Frys) stores anymore, this is definitely the brand I'm going to trust with my hardware: be it the media center in the living room or bedroom, or the 3-monitor center with laptop and desktop split connectivity for software development at home.

Chose this surge protector for daughter's college dorm room. She has many electronics to charge with limited wall outlets. The school is in an area that has many electrical storms and we needed something reliable with an equipment warranty of $250,000. It has space for 8 outlets plus 2 USB ports built in. I had already purchased an additional charging block with more USB ports. The heavy duty 6 ft cord was able to reach from under the bed to the window sill near her desk. Thinking of getting more for home to upgrade current ones. Good investment.

This is a must have for houses that have limited power outlets. Monster is known for quality and this power strip goes above and beyond in terms of outlets and USB capability! Plus...you'll never worry about all those plugs lying around the house, just plug them in this outlet and rest assure that your house will be protected from unexpected power surges and fires! Never buy another USB power brick again, this has everything you need to power and charge your devices!
