Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great Product, APC is best in the business, easy to use,

We have many power problems where we live, so we have many UPSs. We have two of these, along with several others by APC. We have a UPS on our computers, TV, cable modem and routers. We also have some lights and Alexa controllers on UPSs. These 1500s are solid performers. We have had several power events since we installed these, including high voltage (about 145 Volts) when a local substation self destructed. All the APC units handled all the problems. We have one of these on our big TV that uses about 200 Watts and with it, we hardly notice when the power fails. The free PowerChute software is informative and helpful. I also very much like the front-panel display. It comes on automatically when there's a power problem.

APC is always a good reliable backup solution. Easy to install.

Needed this product to both protect and ensure power for my embroidery machine and laptop. I am glad that it is of sufficient size, power, and quality to ensure the safety of my devices/machines. With a few extras to boot.

It works who is supposed to be, I like how it works.

Reputable company. Easy to configure and does what it's supposed to do.

The APC last longer and has more power than any other brands. Always reliable!

This one replaces the one I bought back in approximately 2010. I got a battery failure error during our last power blip, and so I figured it was time for a new one. These devices also provide a conditioned source of power, eliminating the risks of voltage fluctuations (especially now that I live in Las Vegas) and keeping my computers safe. I also bought one for my 3D printers which claim to tolerate power outages, but if you’ve ever tested that theory you’d see that sometimes you get print failures, or at least a very visible “print line,” when the power comes back and they try to resume printing. I can’t recommend a better UPS brand, and in particular this 1550VA model, for most any residential equipment power and protection needs.

The UPS is a fantastic UPS. It does the job we needed it to do and we would purchase another one if needed. Quality is great and it is working great.

I have been using this now for months, and it works great. If the power goes off - it will keep my computers on long enough. I am grateful that I spent the extra money for this. Works excellent

a lifesaver for saving computer info when there is a power outage or even a power glitch - great for all electronic equipment

[Employee of bestbuy] I have had APC backup units for many years. I purchased this one just a few months ago, on May 5, 24. After returning from a trip overseas I could not get the UPS to turn on so I could resume the computers attached to it to working status. Looking at the APC website there is literally no way to submit for a warranty replacement. There were, however, many steps suggested to try. I did as they instructed, disconnected the battery, held power button for 5 seconds, reconnected battery, plug in UPS, and it did in fact turn on. However, if I were not a person comfortable with doing such, these steps would have been meaningless. No number to call, no way to report a problem on the website. In the future I will look at other brands. Disappointing in a company like APC.

Works great for keeping my cable modem working during outages. With just the modem plugged in it gives me an estimated run time of about 179 minutes or just about 3 hours which provides internet for the length of most of my outages. I have another one with the same size battery (different brand) that allows my home server time to shut off and last about 40 minutes with my server running which uses about the energy of a high end desktop so depending on the devices you have plugged in you can probably expect between those two run times. My only complaint was the battery compartment was kind of a pain to get popped on in the dark (bought it during an outage) but that's my only problem. Overall very happy with the device!

Built a new gaming computer. Power went out when I was using it. Power them came on and off a few times. Computer took a very long time to restart. Scarred me. Went to Best Buy and now protected. Easy to set up. Easy to use software. Would recommend.

Needed a new battery backup for a new server. Have always liked the APC brand. New slender design fit nicely under my desk. Much easier to read all features than my old model. No power outage yet to test but set up was easy.

Awesome. Works great and gives reliable backup power. Only problem is that outlets are close together and difficult to use with bulky adapters on many electronics.

Work as it should - Haven't had any problems since

This has given me so much peace of mind after investing so much money into a gaming PC setup. We've had several power outages in my city and my electronics have been unaffected due to this backup battery.

So far it is doing great. Powering 2 custom desktop PC's , Plus 2 Printers. Cutoff the AC and the power and the UPS Pro 1500VA carried the load for 12 minutes. Long enough to shut down the PC'S CLEANLY. I am impressed.

It works as advertised! Best Buy had it in stock when we needed it!
