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

Overall, I have a lot of confidence in the APC reputation. Their power related products all have great build quality and thoughtfulness behind it. This particular surge protector (8 outlets) is both thin and long and takes up very minimal space. The 6 foot power cord is also a good feature to have as it allows for various placements for different use cases. My only complaint about this surge protector is that it doesnt have built in slide covers to protect the outlets that arent in use. Ive appreciated this feature on other surge protector vendors like Belkin which help to protect against the household spills of liquid that happen from time to time within a household. I also somewhat wish that the on/off switch were on the side of the surge protector to prevent it from accidentally being switched on/off; I feel its a little more difficult to accidentally switch a surge protector on/off when the switch is on the side of the surge protector. just my opinion.

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!

After blowing out our newer big screen TV due to a power surge, we installed this one so that our NEW TV wont meet with the same demise.

Im tired of these power strips that have a bunch of nonsense sockets on them. Thank you, APC.

Very good quality.

I got this mainly because it was one of the thinner units that had 8 plugs. For me this was important because I wanted it fit in the cable organizing tray on a sit-stand desk. It does so wonderfully and I havent had any issues in the short time Ive used it. Its currently powering a PC, monitor, bookshelf speakers, desk lamp, and a few usb chargers.

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.

I have a kitchen area that hosts all my appliances; a mixer, a high end coffee grinder, microwave, toaster oven. Total its about 1k of appliances, and the power strip it was plugged in was so old you couldnt tell if its yellow because the plastic was originally ivory colored or because it was 20 years old. I work in IT and I dont skimp on power surge protectors; 15% of surges sneak right past your house level surge protection, and can kick in not only due to lightning strikes but minor changes in current, like nearby electricity use, appliances that kick on and off, etc. All you know is 3 years later your toaster stops working. Most of these cheap surge protectors on the market are glorified extension cables. I trust the brand, they havent let me down so far.

Reliably high quality. Their name still means something.

So I live by this company and high recommend it for two reasons. 1. It works. Ive had one that was destroyed during a thunderstorm but like the company claims, it will protect your electronics, and boy did it do so. While the unit was trashed after the storm, all my gear was 100% and protected. After that I was sold and all of the electronics in our house are hooked up to this company. But more importantly, 2. The companys guarantee. If any of your devices or electronics are damaged while using this product, they will cover you for the damage. Cant beat that.
