Their electronics are indeed overpriced

Frickin lightbulbs are 3 times more expensive than hardware store. They have some cheap items but not electrical items, from what I've seen

I dunno. I would gladly pay more if they can give warranty for a longer lifespan than local generic stuff. But they don't

IKEA sure won't guarantee it. so why should I trust that it will?

I boughted local generic lightbulb instead. so far so good.

My 15 year old Belkin saved my TV, modems, etc from lightning the other day, and still going stronk

don't play play

Dunno. I don't see them around

Belkin has warranty up to a certain value. So that gives a lot more confidence, IMO
