    Solid USB-2 expander

    Placed order online and picked up the next day. Quick shipping to store. Packaged well and smaller in size than what was expected (in a good way). Easy to connect and the products connected worked as expected.

    Gets everything going with new docking station

    I needed this to supplement the new docking station I got for home use with my new laptop. Just too many peripherals, and this ended up more reachable for those occasional extra hookups, such as an SD card reader, pen drive, or recharging portable earphones. No problems!

    Plenty of ports!

    I'm a PC gamer with several controllers that each have their own wireless USB dongle. I have a 50 foot HDMI cable and USB cable running from my PC at my desk out to the living room so I can play my games out there on the couch. I have this USB hub plugged into that long USB cord, and for my purposes, it works great! I'm able to use several controllers as well as my keyboard/mouse combo and even my wireless headset dongle, all are plugged into this thing! As a side note since this is a USB 2 hub, I would advise against trying to plug in hard drives and things like of that sort that will use lots of bandwidth. Since controllers and a mouse/keyboard combo doesn't use all that much, this hub being USB 2.0 works for me.

    Compact, affordable and reliable little hub!

    After purchasing AND returning multiple hubs from multiple vendors, this one is by far the best, and more affordable. It got me back up and running in seconds flat, didn't have to worry about updating drivers, AND it did't fizzle out and suddenly stop working like the others. Reduced all my cluttered cords, and it was easy to use...just plug it in and go.
