Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works as intended. The display is useful in determining actual load on the UPS. It is also nice to see a test result slip on the side from the manufacturer.

Does the trick against Florida electricity. Helps against the dips when large appliances are turned on - and of course against power outages!

Instructions and installation easy to follow. Does not take up much room.

Did you know that almost 10% of humans are old? That means that having a power button that is difficult to press (due to being low to the ground or recessed) means that when this thing starts beeping because the battery is depleted it’s unnecessarily difficult for my customers to press that power button. some of them use a cane for walking and they can’t easily press the power button with their cane because it’s slightly recessed. Having an easy-to-press power button at the top of the unit is an ideal configuration.

Easy to set up and started working immediately. Actually had a power outage a few days later and it worked perfecly.

The packing was fine. Unpacking and setting up was easy. The directions were easy to follow, and the UPS works as expected. I like the controls and it appears to be well built. My power went out the 2nd day I had the UPS. With a full battery charge it supplied power for about one hour to run my router, cable modem, telephone modem, 27" monitor, and Vtech telephone. It was also interesting to find out that the UPS automatically kicks in whenever I start my laser printer by sending it a print job. Probably because the inrush current to the printer is large enough to affect the voltage of the line that the UPS is connected to. I would buy this product again.

I use this UPS to keep two desktop computers, the cable modem (Internet connection) and an ASUS router+2nd hub (for home network devices) online and protected from brownouts or blackouts. Never had any problems with my systems because of the UPS.

works as intended. IT connected it to our server with no issues.

I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase of the APC Back-UPS 1500VA. In a world increasingly dependent on consistent power supply for devices and systems, this unit is an absolute game-changer. Firstly, the 1500VA capacity provides an abundance of backup power, efficiently sustaining my home office during several power outages. The built-in surge protection has proven invaluable, shielding my expensive electronics from unpredictable voltage spikes. The unit's seamless integration with my systems is noteworthy. I am particularly impressed with the PowerChute software that provides automated, unattended shutdown, ensuring data preservation and system integrity during extended power outages. Furthermore, the design of the Back-UPS 1500VA is appealingly compact, fitting conveniently under my desk. It has a user-friendly interface with an easily readable display that shows important stats such as remaining battery life and load capacity. What sets this UPS apart is its ecological efficiency - the Green mode reduces power consumption by bypassing unused electrical components, aligning with my values of energy conservation. Finally, I must commend APC's excellent customer service, which has been responsive and helpful whenever I had questions. The 3-year warranty and $200,000 connected equipment policy offer an extra layer of reassurance in my investment. In conclusion, the APC Back-UPS 1500VA delivers on its promise of reliability and performance, providing an exceptional level of power backup security and peace of mind. Highly recommended for anyone needing a high-capacity, high-performance UPS. It is indeed a 5/5 star product.

Things amazing, works well easy to set up, just don't forget your credentials, it's not very easy recovering it.

Working great. Good backup. Loving it. The best buy team were very supportive while picking up and this was packed supperbly

I was very pleased with the ease of setup and the features of the included Power Chute software. It was purchased for the purpose of saving work in progress and allowing a graceful shutdown in the event of power loss. After getting it set up and connected, I realized that it would provide the added benefit of keeping our router on line and providing charging ability for cell phones in the event of any outage that was less than about seven or eight hours. So that added functionality is an unexpected benefit. As of yet, I have not experienced a power outage so final judgment on its value will have to wait until I see how it responds to an outage.

This is the second ups of this brand I have bought. First one is still fully functional, highly recommended.

Pretty stable unit... only issue I have is it once in awhile starts beeping with no power interruption which requires the device get turned off then on again. Does the job, though!

Provides an estimate of runtime available on battery based on amount of current being drawn. When the battery runtime drops, a safe automated shutdown is provided by the PowerChute software. Perfect solution to protect against surges, brownouts, and power outages.

Reduced size from the previous version. Reliable and easy to set up.

Great product overall. Has no problem supporting and protecting my computer set up. I run everything through it, including my home wifi. It is quiet, good spacing for outlets, and includes USB outlets on the front so you do not have to use a charging brick. Setup was quick. Slim design allows me to tuck it behind my desk and out of the way.

Working very well. I bought this product during the thanksgiving and it's still working very well. No complains.

APC battery backups are the best. I use this brand to protect all my equipment without fail for almost 20 years. The LCD display is worth the extra few dollars for this product and is a nice addition for when your computer is off without Powerchute running.

It's only been connected for about a week but so far it's working well. We have random power outages over the summer, so this is much needed. Very easy to set up. I love all of the extra outlets and especially the outlets for oversized plugs. I like the power indicator, so I know it's always on. My last UBS had shut itself off and I didn't know. Computer crashed (screwing up my main drive when the power suddenly dropped). I still need to try the Powerchute software features next.
