Belkin 7-Outlet Surge Protector With 6ft Cord

I bought this product over a year ago. The purpose was because I wanted to protect my flat screen TV and all electronics attached to the TV in cas there was an outage. I will say that it has held up over the months. It works great and to this very day protects my expensive devices. I have bought other brands in the past from Walmart and Best Buy… and unfortunately those stopped working only after a few months.
I would recommend!!

I purchased this Surge Protector many months ago and am still using it. It has held up nicely and has done a great job of protecting my stuff during many power surges and storms. It provides 7 outlets, which is just great. I would have liked a little bit more space between each plug since some companies still make those ridiculous power blocks. At the price I paid for this surge protector, I am very happy with it. It is visually appealing as well. You will not regret this item.

As with most surge protectors, they insure X amount of dollars worth of equipment if it is attached to it and dies cause of a surge. You will need to read the instructions on the process if you intend to do so. That usually means keeping the box and lots of documentation.

First of all this is a convenient power strip that works. I cannot test its surge protection ability. I chose this particular brand and design because the distance between the outlets is a little bigger than other power strips, and they’re positioned perpendicularly to the strip’s alignment which makes it much more convenient for all sorts of power supplies that are shaped like a cube or a rectangle. There is one outlet that is positioned further apart for an extra large power supply which is extra convenient.

Worth mentioning is that the button to switch the strip on or off for all outlets is on the top of the strip and is easy to press with the foot. It may or may not be preferable by every user. If you have pets or kids they can easily press this button. Alternatively you can press it with your foot.

I bought this because it was reasonably priced. It works fine.

Belkin products are top line on what they are doing and this is not an exception. What I liked most is the one outlet that are a bit further from the others and I needed that as giving space for a rounded smart plug I have (one of the basic reason I bought it), the way they unused plugs are covered and of course the warranty Belkin have for all the products. I got the 12-foot because I needed the long cable but the 6-foot is also cheaper that any “cheap quality” simple power bar selling at the tool multi-stores.

I had the Belkin SurgeMaster 7-Outlet Surge Protector for several years. I had my laptop, my desk lamp, printer, shredder, cellphone and a coffee machine plugged in it.

About 2 days ago, coffee got spilled over the surgemaster; in fact there was about a half a cup of coffee in he surgemaster as I was able to check later. As soon as I realized what had happened, I turned the device off. And then after about 5 mins I unplugged it from the wall outlet; had to remove the bookcase since the wall plug was behind it). I am happy that nothing was set on fire.

I cannot use my old surgemaster anymore, and that’s why I ordered a new one today. I saw that some customers complain about the design, i.e. that it won’t fit many plugs. If that’s your concern, then you should look for a different device, but if you are concerned with safety, I highly recommend it. Of course, it does not mean that you should be careful, but if you are careful, then the device will work with you! I highly recommend it!
