    I like the extension cord. The cord that came with his new phone wasn’t long enough. My husband uses it phone.

    Works on one of my computers, but on another it causes any and all connected devices to malfunction. It is pretty cheap, but since it doesn't work on both computers I'd need to purchase a better cable anyway

    Only USB 2.0 speeds. Not worth it to buy in 2022 when USB 3.2 speeds exist for similar price point.

    I BOUGHT THIS USB EXT. CORD TO USE WITH MY GARMIN 65 GPS ON THE ADVICE OF A YONKERS BEST BUY MANAGER. THE DEVICE WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE GPS AND IN FACT THE GPS INSTRUCTED ME TO REMOVE IT AND USE THE CORD THAT CAME INCLUDED WITH THE GPS WHEN FIRST PURCHASED(THE CIGARET LIGHTER ADAPTER CORD OR THE SHORT USB CORD).

    Extremely slow for charging. Also, this cable is only USB 2.0 speed so it is outdated. The cost for this is pretty expensive for a slow USB cable. Instead buy the cable with USB 3.0 that is surprisingly cheaper than this

    I can’t unplug my USB cable from the extension. Not being able to use it with another cable is rather rather unfortunate.
