    Sturdy, powerful, quiet, lots of outlets & ports and affordable! What more could you ask for? This unit replaced an older, smaller UPS and gives me two additional battery-backed outlets in a similar sized enclosure.

    I have been using this now for months, and it works great. If the power goes off - it will keep my computers on long enough. I am grateful that I spent the extra money for this. Works excellent

    Great price for quality. The battery time is better then it indicates. I run four monitors, a printer and cable modem and get about 2 hours of life when my power goes out.

    Second One Purchased and Still Impressed

    We deal with power outages frequently. And using our home computer network as our music and movie server can be a pain when that happens. Having added this power supply along with our previous one allows us to remain online (as long as the ISP isn't affected) even when the power is out. Neither supply has yet to run out even with hours long power outages. APC is a quality company. This is a quality product and is reasonably priced. Getting on sale was an added benefit!

    Nice product, reasonable price, good availability from Best Buy. Easy setup. Everything works so far. Showing 35 minutes of backup power with cable modem, router, PC and home security system all plugged in and running, good enough for our needs. Recommended.

    Pricier than some of the alternatives, but well worth the extra cost. I've been using this for the past couple of months to power my networking gear in case of a power outage. The last time this occurred, the unit was able to keep my home internet and WiFi up and running for 3+ hours.

    Great UPS/Battery Backup! We have been having power fluctuations in our area due to some of the construction going on and this unit has made our ability to continue working seamlessly. If your in the market or think you need one, I’d highly recommend it! It’s very well priced in my opinion for what it is capable of doing in the event of loss of power.

    I had used APC UPS units in the past, but the Trade UPS program got too expensive. But, I came across these units at Best Buy, and it was a great deal for the price...and not as heavy, weight wise.
