So my new A/V receiver doesn't have a front HDMI channel, but I do have an extra one in the back. This short cable makes it easy to hang in the front of my receiver without having to pull the receiver out if I ever need an HDMI channel to plug into for when my buddies bring over their Playstation or if I want to hook up a video camera with an HMDI output. Well worth the $15.

I got this HDMI extender for my Chromecast. What was going on was that the device was interfering with my TV and it made watching shows on my normal cable unwatchable. I read that getting an extension would help and lo-and-behold, it did! Since buying the unit, I can watch Chromecast any time I want without having to walk from my couch and plugging it in all the time.

Others have complained about ROKU, in that they do not supply an adapter for their smart device. If you do not want to wait for them to ship their "free one" (and they will if you ask on their site), then this works perfectly. Of course I wanted to mount my fireplace TV quicker than ROKU could ship!

The ROKU HDMI stick was getting too hot plugged directly into the back of the TV. I bought this to relocate the ROKU stick away from the heat of the TV and it now works fine without any overheat warnings.

Bought it on vacation to get the firestick closer to a power outlet and easier to hook up the HDMI on the back of the TV. I thought there was a problem with the hotel internet, but when I hooked the extender it worked fine. It could have been the case of getting the firestick away from the heat source of the TV.

I purchased this cable to work with an extra battery unit I got to keep power supplied to a separate audio unit. Everything is still working properly and I have yet to spend much time charging this power supply. The Insignia HDMI cabke has been working perfectly with no interruptions.

My TV is wall mounted and has only 2 HDMI ports. Switching from one device to another has sometimes required changing where the HDMI plugs in. Being able to do this in an open area is very much easier and this HDMI cable extender is the perfect thing.

I got this on a trip so we could use our FireTv stick in the hotel we were at. Since the TV was mounted on the wall with very limited clearance, this extender allowed me to plug it into the HDMI socket on the back of the TV and then plug the Fire TV into it. Worked flawlessly.

I love this cable extender!! I bought 2 of them. 1 for my living room tv & the other for my bedroom tv. My bedroom tv is only sitting on my dresser & not a tv base. So I was having to move to my tv all the time to reach behind it to unplug my ROKU.

The Insignia HDMI Cable Extender was perfect for my Firestick. I was able to move the Firestick from behind my tv to the front as well as 3 feet closer to my modem. It has helped in curbing the buffering I was getting.

In hooking up my new TV (HDMI cable in the wall) I came up a foot short for the connection. I did not realize there were extension cables you could purchase. This cable gave me that extra reach to easily connect with absolutely no loss of picture quality.

This hdmi extension cable is an essential accessory in my house. We often need to reach places behind tv cabinets or behind furniture where a regular cable won't reach. I often use the tv as my monitor with my laptop so I can sit comfy in my recliner!

It's exactly what i needed when I bought an HDMI cable & ran it through the wall for my mounted TV just to find out my cable was to short to reach to my DVD player. So this HDMI extention cord is exactly what i needed

I was never happy with the Roku signal when connected directly to the tv hub. We had many freezes with Roku so I decided to try an extended cable which eliminated the torque placed on the Roku direct connect. To date I have had no further problems

simple, I needed an extension to permanently attach to the rear of my TV, so I could plug in Hard drives or Flash drives with my movies without moving the TV every time to plug in my devices. This item was inexpensive and works flawlessly. I have not had any issues to date.

…for the novice or the pro. Works like hair extensions but for your TV.
One end goes into your TV and the other end goes into the thing you are trying to connect. It's easy and you will figure out which end is up with this product.
