I bought 2 of these, along with some other models. The 2 540-Joule units both stopped lighting green last night after several power flickers, and ultimately a power outage. Both strips still provide power, but no longer light green. All my electronics still work, so clearly these did their job. My other (higher joule) power strips are all still green, so I will replace these 2 units with the higher-rated units. Less than $20 for these two surge protectors saved thousands of dollars of electronics.

PROS: Inexpensive, effective protection.

This power strip looks good, works great, I have had no problems. The cord was a little shorter than I thought, but that's a minor problem.

PROS: Nice overall design

Works great

CONS: Short (er) cord

These just seem a little better then your typical power outlet and the only ones that I am aware of in this price range that state their joules rating.

PROS: Price, design

CONS: none apparent

Bought two for an old building where the wiring is suspect. Haven't had any issues but I feel better not only with these just installed but with the quality of these from Monoprice over say Walmart, etc. The only reason I say white as a con is that I have some electronics that are white that get dull, dingy overtime due to dust, fingerprints, etc. but this is a surge protector and not a high-visibility item where appearances matter. I absolutely LOVE the switch placement as I don't have to worry about sacrificing a plug where a cord's base would accidentally flip the switch off. Highly recommend. Will buy again!

PROS: Protects the Surge

Mountable

Switch placement!!!!!!!!

CONS: Doesn't buy me dinner

White can get dull over time (No experience with this, just conjecture)

I bought this to replace an older more expensive power strip that failed. You can do that too.

PROS: It works, It's inexpensive

I like the price and quality of Monoprice surge protectors. My only issue is with the spacing of the outlets, but if that is a concern you can spend a few more dollars and by their 10 outlet power surge protector.

PROS: Sturdy, looks nice, thin enough to put behind a desk

CONS: not good if you need to plug in bulky transformers. Transformers may block one or two plugs

No issues or complaints here

This is a great priced, simple power strip for low drawing appliances.

PROS: It's a basic power strip

CONS: It's not very aerodynamic

It's a power-strip... plain and simple. Nothing complicated... works exactly as designed.

Would buy again

PROS: Looks nice, good power rating

CONS: n/a
