Customers find value in the 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub's ease of use and compatibility with various devices, frequently praising its functionality and affordability. While some users noted the absence of a power supply and occasional minor delays, the positive feedback on performance and compact size outweighs these concerns. Overall, the hub is considered a good value for its price.
For the price, this is a no brainer to have if you're working from home. I have a work laptop and personal laptop. The work laptop is hooked up to a docking station since I spend the majority of my time on that. My three monitors and webcam are hooked up through the docking station via displayport connections. For my personal laptop I have my speakers and headphones connected, and an HDMI cable for the left monitor (I'm not a gamer or anything and I spend almost all hours of the day on my work laptop so I really only need one monitor for personal use). My wireless mouse and keyboard are connected to the USB hub, and I can switch back and forth between the laptops with the press of a button. The nice thing about the monitor setup is that I can choose to use all three monitors on my work laptop when I'm really busy and need all three, or set the left monitor to show my personal laptop and work on the middle and right monitors at the same time when I'm less busy and only need two screens for work. It's nice because I can have music going in the background, or have youtube/twitter/facebook feeds open on the left while I'm working but not as busy, and just switch back and forth between laptops. Makes things so much more convenient and I don't have to whip out my phone and risk getting too distracted as tends to happen. Really really like this thing, seems like good quality for the price. No latency/lag issues on either computer, and worked right out of the box. It did not come with a power supply cable but so far I haven't needed one. Also it was actually cheaper than a bunch of other ones on Amazon that seemed to have bad reveiws, and it's through Best Buy so I know I'll have customer support if it bites the dust early on. I would recommend this for anyone working from home or even just running multiple setups.

I need to expand the USB ports on my laptop to connect more devices. Relatively in expensive and works great

I got this to use between my work computer (Macbook Pro) and my gaming desktop PC. I am sharing a USB Dac, Blue Yeti and a wireless Jabra Headset between the two devices. This device works like a charm and enables me to switch connectivity at a click off a button. I have also used a USB-C cable to power the device since my Blue Yeti is known to pull more power than the USB-port can supply. Highly recommended!
