I recently got my first ever All-in-one desktop PC. I have seen some reviews where people say they are not really worth it. But for me? I have serious back issues & if I had a dollar for just how many systems I have set up for friends, family, work, etc... I have to admit just plugging in One All in one is wonderful. Having said that, I was not thinking about the convenience of having your USB ports, most of mine at least. And the ease of access having some on the front of my towers. This all in one only has them in the back. I did have a couple of USB hubs that allowed 3 to 5 more outlets, but this one has 7. And the cord length is great. I was afraid it would not quite reach as far out to the front but it does and then some. I am very happy with this purchase and would highly recommend it. It feels like very good quality and even has a little weight to it. Would have liked to have it in white to match everything else, but, silver matches close enough. Bottom line, I got lucky the first time in trying this and am glad I did. Now I can plug in the other items I need with ease and without having to get up and down to do so. With my health issues and mobility issues, anything that makes things easier on me is worth it. The price was fair and I cannot thank you enough. Read more
What attracted me to this product was that it came with its own power supply, it supports USB 3.0 and it has sufficient ports. I figured a powered hub would have better chances of supporting usb-c devices (using an a to c adapter) because usb-c supplies more power to devices. Important point: this hub does not need to be plugged into the wall if you are just using it for keyboard, mouse, thumb drive type devices. But if you are using things like external drives then I must be plugged in. The angled top surface is also convenient. As other reviewers have said, this might not be your best choice for a portable hub but it is perfect for me using my laptop as a home computer. Read more
I bought this for my pc that has limited usb access because as you can kinda see i have about 5-7 usbs in use almost at all times. This little attachment saved me a lot of time trying to connect them to the back of the pc and cable manage that with my ethernet and psu cable, and of course hdmi cable. Gets the job done and has immediate connection for almost all devices. Read more
Got this for use on laptops and desktops but it's really only suitable for desktops. First, it doesn't draw power from the USB port but from a power adapter. That's a mixed bag though, as you need external power for multiple powered devices (think backup hard drives or SSDs) while USB Port-power is enough for a laptop and a limited number of devices, typically 1-3 lower power devices like flash drives. I just wish that the cord leading to it was detachable or USB. It's obv USB on the computer-side but I wish that there was a USB input to the hub so I can detach it. If you can detach it, then there's less cable strain on that point and you can carry it mobile. As it is, with the power requirement and mobility challenges I don't think it's too suitable for a laptop. While it's fine, sits well on the desk, seems to run A-OK at USB 3 speeds, the fixed cable and lesser flexibility detracts a star to me. Fine for your desktop, which it's really made for, but just so-so for a laptop. Read more
Great product. Great price. I have this hooked up to my TV's usb media port and now I have 4 hard drives and a few thumb drives of media 6o choose from on my TV. Read more
Very pleased with this hub. It did everything I wanted it to, even before I plugged in the power cord. The wedge shape is ideal. I fastened it to my desktop with Velcro. It is very secure and easy to access. I've tried cheap non-powered plastic hubs before, but this one is much nicer. Read more
I was losing power from time to time to my extra monitor and it was driving me crazy. Apple told me that I needed to add a plug-in hub to add the extra power. Guess what, they were right. It fixed the problem. Read more
Super easy to set up and works well. I have another one that I spent twice as much money on and this 1 works the same. Read more
