    I love the size, and the weight is okay. I do like that there more outlets on this model but I wish they were spread out more. Most of the stuff I plug takes over the other area making me have to sacrifice one or two outlets.

    The Back-UPS 450VA is the perfect physical size and Amperage for my PC. It fits perfectly behind a computer desk and keeps all the unsightly power cords out of my way.

    I've had this for a while and it's been really helpful when the power goes out so I have time to save things or check the weather for how bad a storm may be in the area. There is also space for large plugs and normal plugs so it's possible to make use of all outlets.

    If you have a nice piece of equipment you need this not only for the surge protection, but for the consistency of it as well.

    With all the power surges and outages we have in our area it is our preference to have all of our major electronics on these battery back up devices. They are great !

    I got this UPS for my modem and security base station, so not a high demand situation. So far, it has performed perfectly during a couple brief power outages. I haven’t purchased or used a UPS for some years, but decided i was tired of having to reboot my modem every time we had a power glitch. One of the things that was most notable about this unit is the smaller footprint and lighter weight compared to units from a decade ago. I will also add that the price for this unit is about the same as that of the last one I bought about 15 years ago. You can’t go wrong with APC.

    APC UPS units are always great, dependable and useful. Perfect timing as Irma hit Orlando. Good footprint and heard it beep as our power drained during the storm.

    Prevents disruption of computer and printer servic

    We have frequent power outages for brief periods, usually less than an hour. These resulted in disruptions of my computer and printer services, and after the power came back on, I could not reconnect the computer and printer, which greatly inconvenienced me. Best Buy recommended that I buy a surge protector with battery back-up to prevent such problems. Since purchasing it, power outages have occurred, but there was no disruption of my computer-printer connection, which has been a lifesaver during big work projects with a deadline.
