Reviews around money (4.26 of 5)

  • On the brighter side, they just refunded my money and told me to keep it
  • You will save money with Amazon, but like me, you may regret it!!Shutting down when the power is on is why I say this product is WORSE than NO backup at all!!
  • I contacted Amazon customer service and they graciously refunded my money, but they do not want the unit back due to shipping issues.
  • It DOES NOT back up during a power failure ( yes, I am plugged into the correct side of the unit) and after 30 minutes of trying to find out how to access a warranty replacement no progress has been made!DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS JUNK!
  • Don't waste your money, or trust your electronics and data to it.

Reviews around value (4.16 of 5)

  • Well made, very good value for money, good battery life
  • This UPS at sale price didn't cost much more than a replacement battery, thus good value.
  • This is a great value to not only stop that but also protect all my "stuff".
  • But for its purpose, AmazonBasics shines yet again with great value.
  • This product is a worse value than simply buying a surge protector with 12 ports, regardless of cost.

Reviews around deal (3.95 of 5)

  • My cat likes to sneak through, around and under my desk investigating things and has stepped on that button as he made his way through and managed to turn off all of my connected electronics
  • The other worked for about a minute before failing as if the battery was bad from day one
  • Unit works as it should, makes lousy AC, but will run your device at the expense of wear and tear in the respective power supplies
  • For 35$ to not have to worry about my 10yr+ old game consoles dying due to a power bump is a great deal.

Reviews around setup (3.91 of 5)

  • But, the setup was easy and the monitoring software is easy to use
  • It's simplified my setup as the UPS handles my desktop, monitor, router and cordless phone while the surge outlets handle the printer, speakers, laptop brick and desk lamp -- so all the powered items on my desk are covered
  • Easy setup....great for backup power to allow time to power down devices.

Reviews around software (3.22 of 5)

  • The software that you can get to manage this UPS to control a shutdown of a computer only works for Macs and PC/Linux intel x86 architectures.

Reviews around drive (1.00 of 5)

  • Turned out the draw which was an Xbox one, 2 hard drives, and a lcd were too much for
  • It's not consistent and I have a really hard time feeling like I could trust this unit with my computer and hard drives in an emergency.

  • I haven't needed the battery life for longer than two minutes, but that's enough to reset my breakers without my PlayStation losing power and risking my data and hard drive!
  • I had a recent power outage where my computer was abruptly powered off, which left the drive corrupted
