Customers are mixed about the shutoff of the power strip. Some mention that it's nice to be able to shut PC down and everything else shuts off, while others say that it turns itself off all the time, even when the master is on.

Customers are dissatisfied with the power of the power strip. They mention that the power save outlets hardly ever work with their electronics, the strips were inoperable, and that it stopped working. The so-called energy plugs don't get any power at all, and it's only acting as a regular power strip now. The threshold settings either won't trigger the power on or won' t trigger power. The switched outlets are all dead momentarily, and the powerstrips are already starting to fail.
"...working perfectly it just stopped working, in that it failed to power my amplifier on/off when I turned my pre-amp on/off...." Read more
"...Unfortunately, the power strip doesn't seem to detect the amplifier turning off and on...." Read more
"...Update after four months. This power strip stops working. It doesn't turn on and off as it used to do. I have tried three different thresholds...." Read more
"...This also has definitely helped turn things off when left on, for example the home theater and printers are constantly forgotten and now pressing..." Read more

I bought two and have used them for about five months now.
So far they work as expected and have seen my bill drop a bit, not enough to pay the mortgage but a few dollars a month is still worth it. So far they have already paid for themselves.
I set both up in the living room, my tv is the master and the bluray, home theater, subwoofer are all slaves (the strip is set to the lowest setting). my roku and the router are on the always on.
the other one is connected to the living room pc as master and the scanner, printer as slaves. and the modem, and obi202 as always on.
At night the standby led's are now off making the living room darker and the light pollution doesn't go upstairs anymore. the only ones that are lit up are the modem and router and I haven't found a way to cover them up without completely blocking me from easily seeing the light codes they give off.
This also has definitely helped turn things off when left on, for example the home theater and printers are constantly forgotten and now pressing the power button on the tv or shut down command on the pc and we know that everything goes down, not everything will power itself back up though. it depends on the design. the Home Theater and printer will stay off but the powered subwoofer and bluray will turn themselves back on once they have power flowing through the strip.
right now I am considering buying at least one more for the garage where I have an old pc I use as a radio (mp3, CD, online radio streamer) connected to an old amplifier, tape, CD, LP, cassette players. where everything is leeching power even if off all day and night, even though the amp has switched power plugs in the back.
So far though I like this powerstrip, with only two issues. 1. not enough always on plugs, 2. the plugs are way too close together, some things have brick power adapters and they can take up to two plugs. I can't say that buying a more expensive one will address these issues as it seems that every strip is basically designed the same.
anyway to summarize I like it and will definitely buy 1 more maybe 2 more I just need to decide whether i'm going to use some stuff in my bedroom or not,
First, as others have mentioned, the LEDs are quite bright. If this is a problem for you, may I recommend a piece of duct tape? You don't have to cover the whole LED, leave part of it visible to verify functions.
On my setup the threshold switch does double duty. My TV draws around 175W, so it will activate the switched outlets regardless of which threshold position I use (low, med, or high). When I turn-on the TV the switched outlets come on within two seconds in the low position, 3 seconds in the medium position, and 5 seconds in the high position. Turning off the switched outlets is even more interesting. It turns out that the power draw of the control device must drop below the setting of the threshold switch before the switched outlets will turn off. Again, with my 175W TV, the high position turns off within 5 seconds, the medium position has a delay of just over 20 seconds before the switched outlets turn-off, and the low position takes over 1 minute and 15 seconds to shut down. This is not necessarily a problem, and could be useful for someone who wants an off delay to let a system power-down gracefully.
Finally, I noticed with a chuckle, the warranty. It's called a "Product Lifetime" warranty.
This is not a Lifetime Product Warranty as you might guess with a quick read of the outer package, but rather a 10 year warranty because that is the expected length of the product's lifetime. Dont'cha just love marketing speak?
UPDATE: It's now April of 2020 and this thing still works well. It has seen at least two on-off cycles every day since put into service in 2017.
For a PC setup, its perfect - plug the PC into the control, monitors and such into the greens, and you will get power to the other devices when you turn on the PC.
Thanks!
