They appreciate the adequate number of outlets, especially the widely spaced ones that accommodate bulky plugs without blocking other ports. Customers also find comfort in the reliable surge protection it provides for their devices. While some wish it had USB ports and a longer cord, most agree that it works well and serves its purpose.

    I purchased this strip specifically for the outlet orientation. The Power adapters of my LG monitors were very wide and long below the outlet which was very problematic on a standard power strip as I couldn’t use any of the other outlets once the monitors were plugged in. Now, I am able to use every outlet without needing another power strip

    Got this one on sale and have no ragrets. Needed a surge protector outlet before I melt the back of my computer again. (I get a lot of surges in my area)

    Bought 4 of these for our computers, routers and modems in different rooms. Don't expect much from the limited 600 joules, but the outlet placement is great.

    So great to have adequate outlets for everything, also surge protection is very good as I lost a tablet to a power outage. This is a bit larger than I might like but It fits in the space adequately

    Exactly what I needed. Better safe than sorry I say. I like how the plugs are not so close together that it makes impossible to connect some things. This has the plugs far apart making it easier to connect pretty much anything with no issues.

    I needed a wide power strip for multiple larger bricks while not being too big itself, and this one fit the bill. No operational issues at all.

    This surge protector was exactly what I was looking for. It has enough outlets to accommodate my TV and accessories, as well as a modem and router. The spacing between the outlets allows for a few plugs with wider bases to fit. I have no complaints so far.

    This is just what I needed. It's compact,so that it does not take up a lot of space. There is ample plug in outlets for all of my computer needs. I like the color black as it goes with everything and does not stick out like sore thumb. The price was very reasonable compared to others simular. Overall,this is a giod buy.

    It was hard to find a surge protector with more than 6 outlets that did NOT have a flat space-saving prong. I can't use those in the outlet where I needed it. This one has a traditional (stick out) three prong outlet that doesn't impede the other socket.

    A departure from your typical store branded generic items, the Insignia 8-outlet Surge Protector Strip looks great with a few design ideas that made it more useful. Like the spaced out outlets for power warts if you have ever gotten frustrated with other 8 outlet strips that you can only plug in 2 or 3 warts. You can actually use up to most of these outlets. Thumbs up and 5 stars for Best Buy on this one.

    Insignia 8 outlet surge protector strip has worked well for me. I have had no problem since using this power strip. I have used more expensive power strips and this one works just as well if not better. Insignia products are generally a money-saving buy. I often buy the instead if the main brand name products.

    Works perfectly as intended. It's great how the outlets are a good distance from each other so it's not too hard to plug in large bricks. I will say that it's a tad loose for my tastes (too much wiggling can bring a plug a bit loose) but it's not a huge problem.

    This simple surge protector carries eight outlets - and four of those have been optimized for power converter blocks. I just wish there was a way to reset a surge protector instead of making it a one-time-use product, but this is one item you would much rather have when you needed it.

    Good Functionality & Price for a Surge Protector

    The first website I visited to look for surge protectors was Best Buy. I found great options and found a good range of prices to choose from. I chose the Insignia 8 Outlet surge protector because it would be great to use for our TV set and other devices that we connect to the TV and also because of the big spaces in between outlets when using larger sized plugs. Great fit for what we needed!

    Not much to say. Does its job. hard to find lightning strikes to test how well, but so far no issues. Other than that the spacing is decent for fat and skinny plugs to optimize space on them.

    I got it for a steal because the box was torn. All those sockets?! Yes please! Two tvs, a game system, a wifi router, and possibly an AC in the winter.
