I had a belkin 1200va/670watt UPS before the Powerwalker and that was a really good UPS also, as it lasted round about 10yrs, had about 4 battery changes over the years and it never let me down.. I think it was about £130 and lasted about 20mins with the UPS at 150watt load...
I had my Powerwalker UPS apart when I first got it, changing the fans for quieter ones as they ran 24/7 and it looks like a beast inside.
I think that the only advantage with a well known branded UPS is that the batteries are nice and simple to change. With my Powerwalker you have to be careful that you dont short anything replacing the batteries.
I dont think I would buy a APC or a well known make of UPS, as you are getting far less for your money and probably not much more quality either.
