Reviews around price (4.61 of 5)

  • Other companies are certainly improving, but when it's critical I always go with APC.
  • The price that you pay for this unit is small compared to the cost for equipment damage or recovering lost data.
  • :I received a defective BR1500MS unit from Amazon in May 2018, but I didn't want to return the product because I got it for a great price on
  • It is just what I wanted for a great price on Prime Day.
  • Just not worth the price, comparable models and better models priced at half the huge 300+ dollar price tag this unit boasts, even on sale like it is which is absolutely

Reviews around backup (4.56 of 5)

  • Power outage at the house (Storm), lost connectivity (router, etc.)...the "U" in UPS is false with this thing
  • Frequent Florida lightning strikes require the best Surge Protector available, and this unit has a great battery backup if local power should be lost!
  • Very good battery backup, if your running something that is not too power hungry, it will run it for over an hour
  • It has provided enough backup so that I have never needed a shutdown.
  • This information is nowhere in the documentation, on Amazon's web page, not even in the APC web page (unless you drill down several levels).So, instead of a smart power backup, one has to use this unit as an overpriced dumb battery set

Reviews around advertise (4.56 of 5)

  • Mine does it but it does not bother me as much as it bothers some of the reviewers.
  • They don' t require much power, like the Bridgeport mill and Republic Turnmaster lathe they serve
  • Worked as advertised if you want to get a real hour of use from your whole system buy the add on battery
  • You would hope that Amazon would have newer inventory of these units, or that Amazon wouldnt knowingly carry defective units, but clearly from the reviews on Amazon, it's still hit or miss as to whether or not you will order an APC BR1500MS (or BR1000MS, etc) and get one that doesn't chirp
  • They always have a life which far exceeds the shelf life advertised for the product.

Reviews around feature (4.49 of 5)

  • Had to turn off the "smart" power feature, but it's been solid
  • Love the new feature that disables the alarm when power goes off.
  • but it's annoying as much for having to press the button as it is for losing a feature that the old one did well and wouldn't have have been hard to do for this one too.
  • A nice feature is the digital display which shows you some operating parameters as well as a count of power interruption events.
  • It provides proprietary features that just aren't going to be provided by your OS natively

  • Power outage at the house (Storm), lost connectivity (router, etc.)...the "U" in UPS is false with this thing
  • Mine does it but it does not bother me as much as it bothers some of the reviewers.
  • The battery will still bleed even if it outside the APC but not as fast as when it is inserted in the usable position

  • Other companies are certainly improving, but when it's critical I always go with APC.

Reviews around ship (3.75 of 5)

  • Is was shipped in a reasonable amount of time and works great.
  • Furthermore, CyberPower has made myself and friends PAY to ship defective units back to them in the past, while APC handles warranty returns and exchanges for free (which is critical for shipping a heavy UPS that equates to expensive shipping)
  • I easily re-packed my defective APC UPS in the box that came with my new unit, then I slapped the free return-shipping label on the box and brought it to a FedEx drop-off location
  • Batteries in the units seem to last about 1 year and a half in my experience and replacement batteries are easily ordered via Amazon.the free prime shipping alone on these is worth the prime subscription cost, although my UPS driver may not agree.
  • Works very well, shipped quickly, and exactly as described.
