The price is right however, I'd be a little leary of getting a 1000 watt psu for so cheap. I wasn't able to find any reviews for that product so that's a moot point, but my other concern would be why such a powerful psu for a pc that originally had a 250watt psu. My point being, I can only guess that the rest of the components are not necessarily high end (which is fine) so needing a kilowatt psu would probably be overkill because the cpu in your system might prove to be a bottleneck for any setup that required a kilowatt psu (meaning a high end graphics card/s.) As arguably one of the most important components in a pc, you may be better off spending a little more and going with something that has a proven track record (and could be easily rma'd if something were wrong with it.) Factor in the shipping cost and you're already looking at $90.
It would help to have the make and model of the pc so that we can look at the rest of the specs. It would also help to know what kind of setup you had in mind (ie. what you were thinking of adding that needed a 1000 watt psu.) I would venture to guess that a decent 700-800 watt would suit your needs and may still even be a little overkill.
BTW, I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with that psu, but rather for such an important component and one that has a direct effect over your other components, it might not be the best idea to skimp on quality. Again, I couldn't say if a kentek product is quality or not but why chance it. Maybe someone else with direct knowledge of their products could shed more light on this topic.
