    I needed a safe and uncluttered way to plug in my computer, monitors, router, modem, paper shredder and printer. This 8 outlet surge protector is just what I needed. The outlet are spaced out so non of the plugs are bunched up.

    Protector Helpful In More Ways Than One!

    I'm very pleased with the protector, it was priced well. Size is compact a fits nicely & unobstuctively. Prior long bar protectors stuckout & were definetly noticeable to the eye. Protector has automatic safety protecting the circuit. Fiddling with tiny switches to push open/close the circuit for SAFETY was always a stuggle with handicapped hands. Finding an intsrument to move/not break the agile tiny switch for the plug hole was always a concern. Changes in modern inovations are nice!

    When Plymouth had a power outage, it affected my surge protector for my television. I did not get electricity back on until my neighbor told me to check my fuse box. It all came back except for my tv. I bought a new protector from Best Buy. It was the best thing I did that day. Everything connected to that outlet works great. Thank you.

    I bought this to replace my old surge protector and off the bat, the quality felt really good and sturdy. I love how the outlets are spaced out so plugs that are bulkier can be placed separate from the rest. Next time I need another surge protector I'm definitely buying another one of these.

      Thank you for the great feedback! We’re glad to hear that the surge protector impressed you with its sturdy build and thoughtful design. The spaced-out outlets really do make a difference when using bulkier plugs, and it’s great to know it met your needs so well. We appreciate your support and look forward to being your choice again in the future.

    Insignia products are always reliable. This surge protector offers great value and performs well. I work from home and have multiple devices to connect, including three monitors, yet I haven't experienced any power outages. It certainly fulfills its purpose.

    It does exactly what i need it to do. Ive had it over a year and no issues whatsoever. Although a little on the pricey side it is a good surge protector and i love that it has a lot of outlets and some spots just for cables to plug directly into with out the need for the box.
