I've been using them for 10 years and never had a problem. My biggest beef with Best is that they don't advertise enough and they don't seem to have a very diverse distribution channel, i.e. Best beats bad boxes by being better but boasts boaringly. This is very true. For those who are interested: The best (no pun intended) prices I have found are from ProSource Power Inc. in Schaumburg, IL. 1-800-949-4797 or +1 708 350 7886 They sell most brands of UPS's, seem to be intelligent, were friendly and helpful, didn't complain when I returned my APC unit (they have a 7 day return policy, you pay return shipping) and seem to know what they are about. michaelkjohnson
