$20.00 In the Packaging Itself??

Ken from San Jose, CA on 6/5/2023

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Paid Another $35.00 for this Unit for the SCREW through the Middle that HOLD'S it to the Receptacle so when you Unplug Stuff it Don't come out of the Receptacle that it's Plugged into. My BAD for not reading further into the Description of the One I had to Return. This one is actually better with more Protection, and On / Off Switch on the Side, and some Boxing / Packaging that would Impress the Most Critical Customer. Part of the HIGH Price Point I'am Sure????

Pros: Nice Device, Kinda Pricey for what it is???? Looks GREAT, and Has a SAFETY Screw to Hold it to the Receptacle.

Cons: If it's a CON??? The Packaging is a Bit of an Over Kill AUSTERE, I'd Pay the Packaging Cost's for More / Better Protection!!! Something to think about for such a High End Product. It's Nice, Impressive and all.... But NOT FUNCTIONAL for the Consumer!!!!

Ok surge protection

I don't really hear a difference but I suppose it's doing the job? Blue lights on the piece are very bright and inconvenient when I'm trying to sleep in the room this is in. There is no manual, no info about this thing in the box.

I like it!

Looks nice with the 3 led's and the plugs attach snuggly. I have my power strip hooked up to it and everything works fine. The attached screw helps to keep it more secure as well. Powering my amp, cd player, turntable, and a sub in my stereo set up. No storms yet, but I feel my equipment will be protected, so I'm comfortable with the price of this product after comparing with other devices and deciding what would work best for me. Thanks Crutchfield for carrying this brand and model!
