Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

APC Smart-UPS 1000VA line-interactive tower UPS provides pure sine wave output to support critical electronics for small offices and small to medium business owners. It features an IEC 320 C14 input and eight IEC 320 C13 outlets, built-in lead-acid battery and surge protection to guard equipment against lightning strikes, sags, brownouts and power surges. The UPS supports cloud-based remote power monitoring, firmware upgrades, remote diagnostics and proactive email notifications with recommended actions, and can integrate with EcoStruxure IT or other centralized management platforms. The device operates in green mode for high efficiency and includes a two-year warranty.

Advantages

Easy integration with remote management platforms and cloud monitoring enables centralized oversight and timely alerts. Green mode operation increases energy efficiency while the built-in replaceable lead-acid battery and compatibility with APC replacement battery cartridges simplify maintenance and help restore original runtime. The intuitive graphic LCD interface provides clear status information and control.
