Frankly it is a device with no controls or interaction required. Your electrician installs it and with luck it just does what it is designed to do, stop spikes from entering your home electrical suppressor! It obviously gets a positive review until the day it gets hit and let's a damaging spike through. It could even be installed by a home owner if they are handy and they follow directions and basic safety protocols. I am not recommending that any strongly advise that you have a licensed electrician do the job though.

This is the cheapest way to try and protect your electronics and appliances in the home. Do I know it works? Nope, but I have confidence I am better protected with it than without it. Will it protect from a direct lightning strike? Heck no, are you silly? However it will protect from all the surges that come from your power company.

Like most insurance, you cannot really evaluate until there is a problem (surge.). That said, slickly integrated into HomeLine load centers, super simple to install with the caveat that need spaces at TOP of load center, so you may need to move breakers around to properly install.

It may protect against a single surge but then it can fry and any subsequent surge just passes on by and fries your stuff. The warranty is pretty well useless too unless it's installed in all new construction and even then it only works hand in hand with your homeowner's policy.

This product is like buying insurance. We purchased one for our last house because we often would have power outages and surgs. While this surg protector won't help with power outages or brown outs it can remove much of the danger of a power surg when the power is returned or a lightning strike. Properly placed in the main curciuit breaker box it will shunt an overvoltage to ground and trip the main circuit breaker protecting all the devices in the house. When that happens you must only reset the main circuit breaker to restore power. The power rating of this device is high enough that it normaly will not be damaged before the main circuit breaker opens. Our last one was still working fine when we moved after 20 years.
