It's a surge protector. It will either work or not work. This one works for me, and I figured that since I was upgrading all of my equipment, and I live near Atlanta (thunderstorms), that I would invest in a surge protector that costs more than 10$. I have no regrets.

I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: color coded outlets beat self-labeling of cords

If I need to unplug any component, it is easy to determine the correct plug; no need to trace cord from component to outlet. Plenty of outlets and plenty of protection.

I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Saved me thousands of dollars

An electrician was trouble shooting a problem in our electrical panel and accidently shorted out the circuit that the AV700 was on protecting a brand new 47" LCD Flat Screen, a cable HD box, and a HD DVD and VCR combination player. I heard a loud pop then a high pitched noise coming from my son's rec room. I smelled smoke and started looking around for the source of the smoke and high pitched noise. After a few seconds realized it was coming from the AV700. I unplugged it and the noise stopped. The electrician came running in. He checked the outlet and found it to be okay so I used another power strip I had and we plugged the components back in and everything worked! Thanks! Nothing apparently damaged other than the power strp!

What's great about it: Nothing

What's not so great: Unit broke after 1 year.

I was recommended this unit what I bought a pricey plasma TV last year. About a year later the unit suddenly stopped working. No power to the unit, no power to any devices. How can this unit protect all my A/V gear when it cant even go a year without breaking? I would never buy another unit from Monster Cable again. I could never trust one of their surge protectors.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Labeling and Reliable

What's not so great: Nothing

This is a great product. Good price, good reliability and easy labeling system. I especially liked the label stickers to put on the cords. It makes it very easy when you are moving cords/equipment around.

What's great about it: Space for plugs, thick power cable, satisfying "click" to switch on

What's not so great: Not "cheap," can't re-label the outlets without a labeller.

It's a power strip / surge protector. A little pricey for what you get, but has good space for any floor warts you may have to hook up. The click to switch the power on is very satisfying for some reason...the power cable is very thick and generally the device looks pretty well built.

I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Color-coding, easy to set up

What's not so great: Little documentation, can't reset alarm

After purchasing this unit for my home entertainment system (52" TV, Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii, AV receiver and cable box), I was very pleased with the ease in which I was able to hook everything up (even the ingoing and outgoing cable tv coaxial cables). The color-coding gives it an extra added touch. It does an excellent job in protecting my unit as I've had several power failures in my home. My only gripe was when I had a really bad power surge and the unit started to beep constantly. I didn't know how to reset it and can now only assume that the unit is fried. The reset button doesn't work and I can't get any information on this from the MonsterCable website (although I did put in an email request - still waiting). My next step is to go to Best Buy and see what their take is on this.

What's great about it: Color coding makes it easy

I bought this to protect my equpment, and I think it has done so on at least 2 occasions already. I fried a TV on a different circuit but this one seems to remain OK...
