    Good quality and reasonable price, definitely better than the one it replaced. So far it works well, we've had 2 power outages since we installed it and we didn't lose a thing.

    The system was delivered a day ahead of the projected schedule. The package was in good condition and installation was easy. It was a replacement for an earlier system so really no surprises. One thing I do like is size, The first system was so large I had to bury it in our desk cabinet. This one fits well on the desktop, behind our monitor.

    My old UPS finally gave out and I wanted something smaller for my home office, especially since we're WFH for the foreseeable future. This model is more compact and has a USB port which my old one didn't have. Also has the right amount of powered plugs for my cable modem/router and alarm.

    Got this after I had one where the battery is gone, I haven't been disappointed. There were two times that there was a power outage and with this battery I was able to shut down everything before they shut down by itself due to the outtage.

    Works to have lamps, phone charger, etc. Electric goes out and if I had a lamp on it stays on (600VA). I have purchased larger size for my VOIP phone and router (1000VA) and have 900 VA for my modem.

    Time will tell if this can keep up with all the 2-second power failures that abound in my area. Instructions need to be better. We're not all IT professionals, APC. When connecting the battery, there was a clear plastic piece over where the cable needs to be connected. It didn't allow me to connect the battery cause it was slanted to one side. No idea if I should have removed the plastic piece, try to turn it, or what. It ended up coming off so I reattached it so I could connect the cable.

    When shopping for UPS's I'm always drawn to APC. I have had a few bad ones through the years, but APC made good on the warranty/replacement. When they are on sale, I usually pick another one up versus a replacement battery. The smaller footprint of the newer ones are nice too. I try to have most electronics in my house, including the internet broadband equipment, on a UPS for power blips and odd noises on the lines.

    I had a 450 and very satisfied with it for 10 years but needed a replacement version with little longer output to keep the internet going during occasional power outages. These are reliable units.
