    I don't know if mine is defective but we've got some weird issues going on with this surge protector. We have a projector, an access point, an apple tv, a nintendo switch and occasionally a macbook pro plugged into this. We never even have all plugs filled up but sometimes when docking the switch or if there's some static electricity discharge on the mac, the projector shows static for a second or two. What's worse is I never witnessed this when I had everything plugged into a decade or two old no name surge protector. It's a bit concerning.

    This was the cheapest low profile surge protector I could find not exactly what I wanted but it does the job.

    So far this surge protector is working out great. There was a warning to use it 30 feet from the breaker box.

    Buy a different Name Brand

    While this Surge Protector seems to work ok, there is nothing overly special about it, so it is not worth the extra cost. I have been highly dissapointed with MONSTER products in the past and have no idea why this company thinks their products warrant a higher price tag. But a different Name Brand.

    I bought this surge protector because it was a brand name. Unfortunately, it shorted out soon after my purchase (about a month) and only because a blowdryer was plugged into it....very disappointing.

    This power-strip serves the exact same purpose as any other power-strip: to protect your devices. If I were you, I would find a cheaper alternative.

    nice design and USB ports are so useful

    This is a very nice surge protector. Outlet designs are very good, allows you to plug in different shape connectors easily. USB ports is the best part, you don't need USB connectors any more. Directly use USB cables and charge your devices.

    I bought this because the one I had was so old and ragged, it was time to replace. Monster makes good surge protectors and this one is no exception. The USB charging ports are a good bonus.

    Trusted Brand Doing It's Job

    I trust no other surge protectors but Monster. Bought this for my new all in one computer I purchased 2 weeks ago. Able to leave it plugged in without worrying about surges. Purchased a bigger Monster surge protector for home theater system in 2009 and we get awful lightning out here and every component of the system still works perfectly. If you want a quality surge protector for your electronics trust the Monster brand.
