Worth the price
It is easy to find cheap surge protectors, but you don't know if the "savings" is really worth it until you have a power surge and your computers and appliances get fried. This product is backed up by the Belkin name and a guarantee. I ordered one and was so happy with the convenience of the pivoting sockets that I bought a second for another room. Also, you can disregard the warning of one of the reviews for this product that says the center sockets do not work. They work just fine: Almost all plugs today are polarized (one prong is wider than the other) and if your plug doesn't fit in the center sockets on the first try, just rotate it.
