Works like a charm!
Lost power a week ago, a generator or something exploded in our neighborhood, and all of our devices are fine.
My OLED tv, WiFi , PS5 are okay and working properly!
I have peace of mind knowing my devices are plugged into this surge arrest and covered if something were to go wrong.

Nicely spaced outlets. Love the swivel power cord. USB ports are handy. Biggest drawback is the power button. Could be more prominent and perhaps lit when powered.

One more item to clean up my Entertainment system. I had run out of available plugs with the old 6 outlet surge suppressor, and it couldn't handle blocks well. Got this one, and everything is plugged in easily. The swiveling power cord out of the suppressor is great and the wall hugging plug is necessary for my system. This has everything I need in a surge protector.

The APC - Surge Arrest 8-Outlet/2 USB is what I needed to plug in my Tv, Speaker System, and my Night Owl Security box and Monitor to. It seems to be well built and does what I need. Thanks to Best Buy for shipping this out to me very quickly.

The old socket in our living room is in a hard to reach place, so with the multiple plugs needed for our entertainment system, this was a good solution, plust giving us security of mind about the safety of the equipment

I purchased this power strip for college dorm. What I like about this power strip:
1) 180-degree rotating power cord with right-angle plug, so the plug does not sticking out a lot from an outlet.
2) 2 USB port to charge my phone and accessories
3) 8 surge-protected outlets
Highly recommended.

This is a great Surge Protector, I love how it has the plugs that are made for the thick boxes we I plug into them. Since it is 2022, a change I would make would be changing the usb to usb-c porta, but other than that a great surge protector.

We were needing a combination surge protector and battery backup for our cable - Wi-Fi modem. I had owned APC before and has been a great brand to purchase. This model offered what we needed (per the specs section) and priced within the budget we set. Has for the setup, follow the clear directions, which come with product and you are up and running in no time.

I've been using APC surge protectors for many years. I just used this one as a replacement surge protector for one that needed to be replaced after 10 years! Does what it needs to do. Buy it and have peace of mind!

I bought one initially for my gaming pc since I don’t want any mishaps with a power surge, then bought one for the living room. I love how the outlets are arranged and the convenience of being able to put it on the wall.

I was disappointed in how slow the usb charges my cell phone and iPad.
Still need to use the charging blocks.
I still needed the extra outlets for other things so kept it.
Will keep looking for one with usb that charges faster.
So if your buying to use the usb for your devices,keep looking

I had to update my surge protectors and I ended up with one of these because it was thinner to fit behind my desk easier without having to pull it so far off the wall and I really like it I also like the USB option as well

I lost some devices due to power surges so I thought I'd give this a try. Took two close lightning hits yesterday causing some blinking but the devices I had on this came through with no problems.

So far so good with this surge protector. Spacing between lower plugs on product allow for plugging in of larger plugs while still allowing other plugs adjacent. Happy with the purchase.

Great surge protection and at a decent price as well. I have way to much money invested in my entertainment center to not have it protected from power surges. This product gives me piece of mind as well as much needed extra plug ins.
