Customer Ratings & Reviews

Almost all of this type of devices, surge protector or not, have the cord coming out of the same end as the switch (because it is cheaper to make). You either have to reach through all the cords to get to the switch or find some way to deal with its own cord. This APC surge protector has solved the problem. While the photographs do not show it, the power cable can be turned to go in either direction! This means that the switch can be placed where it is convenient and all the cords go together out of sight. It is well made and provides good protection. The outlet orientation are different so they more easily accommodate wall worts and regular plugs. The power switch goes on easy but a little more effort is needed to turn it off - probably because it also resets the circuit breaker. It is a little expensive, but the convenience of having the cord go in either direction is well worth it. I usually look at the Joules and go as cheap as I can for the Joules I want but that has changed since I tried this APC protector.

This surge protector is bit bulky but does a great job. I have my desk top computer, wireless router and modem all connected to this, and I feel better with the protection this unit offers. I also love the extra convenience of having the USB slots for extra charging space for devices.

exact amount of plugs i need with the convenience of usb on the surge protector is a win in my book

These surge protectors are excellent. There are plenty of outlets to fit a number of devices and several usb charging ports. Works great!

Perfect for my garage. I connect all my batteries to it. Snow Blower Batteries, my tool batteries, cameras and so many other items. It also has 2 USB Surge ports which I like that it has. Very useful for me. Reno Dominik

I just need it to be able to connect all my new equipment to work from home and I was able to connect all my computers and devices, and even my iPhone and my tablet, and the cord is long enough. Really will recommend this to a friend!

I needed a surge protector that accounted for larger adapters and this one delivers. Multiple outlets allowed me to plug in everything for my entertainment set up. The USB charging ports are a nice addition also.

Love this I can plug in all my items and use the phone charge ports and the usb. Well worth the money the surge protection gives me piece of mind.

Reliable, no problem since first day. It is big and bulky, I put it at a lower corner to hide it from sight.

Quality, multiple outlets, and additional USB ports are great to have! The solution to my needs.

I appreciate how many usable outlets there are. The 2 USB ports are really nice to have. My only complaint, and it may just be a flaw to my strip, is that one of the outlets seems a little too wide to keep the cord connected to power. I moved it to another spot, so it’s really no problem. But I’m glad I spent the money for this one. I like it and would buy again if I needed more.

Over the years I've had numerous surge protectors and this one is the best yet in my book. The plugins are set up perfect for me I can plug up 11 things and not struggle to get them to fit,and the 2 usb ports are just a bonus.Highly recommend!!

Enough outlets to get almost the need connected with surge protection and USB ports charger works well

Quality so far. Easy to tell if it is good to go or overloaded. Plenty of outlets and USB connections.

I have many items for my entertainment center and with things now needing usb it was problematic using a standard power strip. This one provides enough for my two xboxes, tv, Blu-ray, tuner, powered speakers, chrome cast and still has plenty of slots remaining.

I love APC products when it come to protecting my electronics. I will purchase 3 more of these to round out my needs. Look no further than this APC surge protector it has 11 outlets, and 2 USB ports " I haven't used yet".

I love this surge protector. It gives the ability to plug in all of my electronics without the worry of them being fried during a storm surge

This is a great product. Has 11 outlets plus 2 USB ports. Very good quality. I feel comfortable using it to protect anything, no matter the price. Easy to use & the price was reasonable.

APC - SurgeArrest 11-Outlet Surge Protector - Black provided flawless protection for all your electrical devices and has great ease of use. electrical cord was extra long to setup conveniently in any location.. The all Black Design is attractive.

I like the overall design of this surge protector—it’s sleek, does its job well, and I’ve had no problems with power or plugged-in devices. I’ve bought more than three of these, so I can confidently say it's reliable for its core purpose. However, I have to dock a couple of points for some disappointing details: The USB ports don’t work on any of them. I didn’t buy these just for USB use, but it would’ve been a nice bonus. Still, across multiple units, none of the USB slots function, so I know it's not just a fluke. I didn’t bother returning them since I didn’t need that feature urgently, but it’s definitely frustrating. This thing is also a dust magnet—the surface seems to attract everything in the air, so be ready to clean it frequently if you care about appearance. I also wish the outlets were spaced just a little farther apart. Some bulkier plugs or adapters end up overlapping or blocking neighboring slots. That said, it still does what it’s supposed to: protect my devices and give me plenty of plug space. I’ve seen other reviews mention the same USB issue and tight spacing, so I’m not the only one. If USB ports and extra space between plugs are important to you, you might want to look elsewhere. But for basic surge protection, it works.
