APC Surge Protector, White Power Strip PH8W, 2160 Joules, Flat Plug, 8 Outlet Power Strip

Solid power strip, used some 3M velcro to attach to bottom side of desk and plug orientation fits all my device needs perfectly. Have an APC UPS for Tv and consoles for past couple of years and this power strip shows the same quality and gives the same confidence to protect my PC and monitor.

All in all, the design is great, and the performance is fine... with two exceptions: The power switch and the cable. Both are prone to being switched off or pulled at more easily/accidentally than any other surge strip Ive owned. The switch could use more resistance and/or be further “made flush” into the body of the surge strip, and the plug should not be angled like it is. 3 stars. Still, at ~ US$15, it’s a easy and cheap way to get reliable surge protection and more outlets for the devices in your space.

The best thing about this surge protector is the plug in just takes up one spot on the outlet. The protector itself has done nicely spaced connections but would be difficult to use them all and probably not wise to do so. Flat thus does not take up much room. Appears well made and a good value. Likely will buy again.

Been using this item in my home office for only a week but I have lots of experience with APC products and, so far, I expect this surge protector to follow suit. It feels well-built and I had no trouble at all plugging all my home office menagerie into it. The flat wall plug is also a great feature and allows my desk to fit snugly against the wall. Go with APC and rest easy. You can trust their products!

Ive always bought surge suppressors and the like from APC. Theyre very reliable and well-made. The equipment protection guarantees are great, too. This strip is not as sturdy as some other APC strips, but it is also less expensive. Perfect for basic home use (a TV, Xbox, etc). Id get a higher up APC model if youre protecting a workstation computer or high end audio gear. But for basic stuff, this strip is a good value. Id trust this far more than a lesser known brand.

Perfect replacement for my old power strip at my desk.

Not too much thicker than a normal surge protector. Port placements are great to allow multiple large plug types. Hope I never have to rate the actual surge protection.

Great surge strip also had different ports for big plugs

I really wanted a flat connection to the wall in a certain area in my house to optimize space. Originally I had one that was not a flat connection, and I had to have furniture stick out from the wall. Now with a flat one I have been able to reduce that space and it looks much cleaner and the space feels larger. The switch to turn it off and on is easy to access and I can plug lots of items into it. I researched a lot of surge protectors looking at both design and safety and so far this has fit my needs.

As other reviewers have written, the LEDs are bright. Ridiculously bright, so make sure its in a place where you dont have to look at them all the time or they will drive you mad. Otherwise, typically well made APC product.
