I HAVE BEEN USING APC FOR DECADES NOW. I UPGRADED TO THIS ONE CAUSE OF IT'S NICE FEATURES AND AFFORDABILITY. VERY EASY TO SETUP AND GIVES YOU IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS RIGHT INFRONT OF IT'S LCD SCREEN. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT.

Received the Back-Ups Pro 1000S to replace my old Back-Ups 750. Much nicer design, and it only takes up 1/3 of the footprint. Nice and slim cabinet with plenty of receptacles. The control panel is well thought-out and easy to figure out. Nice improvement!

Quick delivery and great price from B&H (as usual). Arrived in great shape and was easily installed and configured.  Working well.  I only use APC brand backups.

Very good unit, arrived timely, works flowless

The BR1000 is more than adequate for my home office needs (a router, a desktop PC and a laptop). My devices seldom draw more that 150W combined and the BR1000 will keep them running for over 30 minutes. I tested it by unplugging and the transition to battery power was seamless. I love the fact that the display can be configured to show current wattage drawn, minutes remaining on battery or other desired info. I have had no problems with noise or heat from the unit. Battery is easily replaceable without tools. Configuration of outlets is convenient though buyers should be aware they are all on the back while display is of course on front. My only advice for others is that you might well do with a smaller and lighter unit if you are only protecting a PC and router as I am - nice to have the extra capacity but not essential.

While the number of potentially suitable APC UPS offerings is a bit over whelming, the website is well-organized, so once I narrowed down what I was looking for, I found it quickly. The purchase process was surprisingly smooth, I was felt informed as to the status of my order via email, and the UPS was delivered by UPS right in the estimated date of delivery I was given. (Sorry,
I couldn't help myself with the "the UPS was delivered by UPS".)
I have learned, the hard way over the years to buy a little more UPS than I think I need in terms of surge plus backup outlets, and more battery support runtime than I think I need. Better a little too much than a little too little. APC has served me well since I purchased my first computer in 1992. I endorse the APC / Back-UPS brand.

Easy to set up. Nice looking product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have regular thunderstorms that have, in the past fried electronics even without being a direct hit. This UPS has the capacity for both my desktops and my NAS – that is online 24/7. In the two weeks since it was installed, we have had 2 storms, one involving a brief lights-out. No effect on the electronics. Also, we have had a more stable cable Internet connection since using the built-in coax surge connection. For the copper ethernet I have it connected to a 70’ run to the front room to protect against near strikes.
The front panel is compact and packed with information. Unfortunately, it is the best information. The APC server/workstation software is not straightforward to get and had limited application. I would suggest opening the interface to selected developers to reach more OS and devices.
Overall it is a solid piece of protection that is very simple to setup. Be aware that there is a hum with something that handles this much VA. But under the desk it won’t be noticeable.
