    Bought this to go along with my printer. Use it for the printer, lamp and modem. Cord was a perfect length for my needs - not too long & not to short. Works well for my needs - I like all my Insignia products. Thought it was a good buy for the money.

    Great surge protector at a very fair price. I looked at more expensive ones and thought no sense in spending so much money when this would do the job. It's met all my expectations and I would reccomend it wholeheartedly to anyone.

    I put a surge protector on everything I own to keep it from being damaged by a surge in power due to storms. This is the last one that I bought and it has two laptops plugged in to it.

    Finally enough outlets to plug in a home theatre. But a big negative (true of most power strips) is that you can only use about half of them because most plugs are so wide they cover two outlets. But I do like their long, narrow space-saving design.

    As an outlet strip, this is good. Haven't had a lightning strike to test the protection. Though, we have dirty electricity in or to our house that has burned us on a couple of other products previously. That has not occurred with this strip.

    This 6-outlet surge protector is great for multiple uses. Be aware it must be at least 30 feet from main power source, according to the instructions included in package.

    This is an excellent 6-outlet surge protector. I needed extra outlets in my bedroom in order to plug-in chargers for my iPhone and laptop. This product fit the bill perfectly. Also the charcoal color go well with the decor of our room.

    I purchased this surge protector to use with my new Lenovo desktop, monitor, sound system, and a light. This has been functioning well for the several months I have been using it. Basically, no worries from using it.

    Very affordable. Was guaranteed up to protection level I was seeking. Built sturdy (as some are not) and does the job! Not sure how much else a surge protector can do, but I would recommend this, especially for the very reasonable price.

    So glad I thought to purchase a surge protector. It is an absolute must for expensive electronic equipment to protect your investment from frying when storms hit with electrical surges.

    This surge protector gets the job done and the color is good in almost any décor. It is streamlined and barely noticeable while keeping tech devices charged up and safe.

    It's a surge protector. If you are looking for a review on a surge protector you are reading too much into life. That was free feedback for you. I'll let you know if a lightening strike burns this out and it fries my equipment.

    I bought this for an outlet to plug a few additional electronic devices into and it works as it should. I have bought a few of these same surge protectors from Insignia and have never had an issue.
