  False Advertisement!! October 18, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased a surge protector for my television from amazon.com. Amazon said free shipping and when I ordered it the total on my online bill said free shipping as well. When I received the offical bill afterwards they charged me $25 dollars for shipping and handling. This is false advertisement!!! I complained to the company and they told me they can't do anything about it. I will never buy anything from here again.
  GREAT SURGE PROTECTORS August 29, 2008 Just bought a new Sony HDTV and these surge protectors make everything including the TV safe.
  Monster vs. Belkin: close call, but price and number of outlets shouldn't be the deciders. August 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
[Since the following was written, the price difference between the Monster and Belkin (both approx. 25) has become decisively gaping (20 and 35), making the Belkin the only sane choice.}
Monster is premium quality at a premium price. Musicians will pay more for a Monster patch cord than some folks would pay for an electric piano. But on closer inspection, this power strip is competitively priced. I recently purchased a 12-outlet Belkin strip at only several dollars below this Monster strip. But the Belkin would accommodate only 8 of my plugs because 6 of the receptacles are in a vertical row (with the ground holes on the inside, not the outside as is the case with Monster). Consequently, a right-angle plug took up the space of 3 receptacles, in effect reducing me to the same number outlets as this Monster.
Even so, why not save several bucks and get the Belkin? Two compelling reasons in favor of the Monster (the included HDMI cable isn't one of them): 1. The color coding is a thoughtful timesaver/frustration eliminator (how many times have you found yourself on the floor suddenly at a loss about which device connects to which receptacle?) 2. The well-illuminated surface tells you at a glance whether the unit is connected and receiving power (Belkin units have too few or zero lights, requiring the user to get down on all 4's to determine whether the problem is a loss of power to the strip).
I'm giving it 4 instead of 5 stars because only 3 of the 8 outlets are dedicated to those space-robbing power adapters (wall-warts). Count on the remaining 5 outlets accommodating no more than 2 additional power adapters.
  Easy to use August 19, 2008 Though i didnt notice any difference in the picture quality, i feel much better plugging in my $3000 HDTV and the home theater system in this powercenter.
  Great product! July 26, 2008 Great product, great price! Just visit your local discounter and check out the prices of the cheapies to see that this is a steal at this price.
