5.0 out of 5 stars Does the job
I wanted this to change the position of my wireless mouse dongle that sticks out of my laptop. This little thing allows you to bend the mouse dongle up out of the way to avoid breaking it and position it for best mouse reception.

3.0 out of 5 stars FlexUSB
The design of the FL001 FlexUSB USB adapter is similar to the one done by Cables to Go although it does not seem as well made. The detents for the orientation adjustment do not have a true "click". It does however function adequately.

4.0 out of 5 stars It works, November 16, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
I bought 2 of these and they do what they are intended to do: enable the re-positioning of USB drives. They offer a very wide range of re-positioning positions. I use mine for positioning a USB flash drive plugged into my car radio so it isn't accidentally broken off. I use the other in the same way on my laptop for the drive for my wireless mouse. They aren't all that sturdy but they probably shouldn't be: In the worse case scenario, these will break instead of the USB drives.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good gadget, March 1, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
Good gadget! Very good gadget; it swivels in all three dimensions and the USB cord is no longer sticking out the side of this machine by 2" or more. Notebooks take note.

Now I'm looking for the same for RJ45 / Ethernet plugs. They stick out too.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice gadget, April 22, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
Nice gadget. I ordered one, one was bad. With a cable tester I found out that pin 1 was not connected.
I got refund right away. For the handy man, you can clip it open and solder the wire on. For me no big deal, for average user not possible.
But it works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for laptops, November 21, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
This plug solved the annoyance of usb plugs and cables that stick out on the side of my laptop. It is infinitely adjustable and takes most of the strain off the laptop's usb input jack. It can prevent costly damage and is well worth the investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Laptop space saver, November 11, 2009

This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
I use these on my laptop which is mounted under a table on a pull out drawer. The laptop is wider than most and I found that plugging the usb connector into the side of the laptop created a problem when closing the laptop. The Flex USB extension solved the problem beautifully! The Flex is truly flexible, it can be adjusted easily in every possible position that could be required for successful use. I looks well made and I have no worries about it's use on my laptop. Great product, perfect solution. IDE DIST FL001 Flex USB

5.0 out of 5 stars Slick idea, November 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
This flexible adapter does everything it claims. I have a car radio with a USB port, and I have ruined two USB thumb drives because they protrude too far out and were hit by passengers in the car and damaged. This handy little device prevents the damage, and also gets the thumb drive out of the way enough to get at the heater controls beneath the radio. Great idea!

This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
This little gizmo worked perfectly. I imagine most folks use this for some kind of wireless access device; however, in my case I needed it because of limited space and placement of
a laptop on a frame. The quick 90-degree turn allowed me to set up a configuration that I would have otherwise not been able to do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent USB adapter for laptops, January 14, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
This is a great low-profile adapter that can twist in almost any direction. I use it on my laptop to keep the usb cable from sticking out and bending too much. While waiting for this product to arrive in the mail, I bought another right-angle USB adapter from a major electronics retailer local store. This one from Amazon.com/Cyberguys is much better. I've been using it for a week now with no problems, and I take my laptop to/from work in a laptop bag on a daily basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars FLEX USB works as posted, and helps avoid damage to dongles that are in arms-way., January 19, 2012

This review is from: Ideative FL001 FlexUSB Flexible USB Adapter - Black (Personal Computers)
Receiver This FLEX USB device does a good job of tucking USB flash drives and wireless receivers out of arms-way.
In some cases where the LED is not visible, this device also allows me to turn USB (LED display) back towards my view. The devices turns through click-positions, and stays in the position you set it to. Of all the other choices that I observed, this was my choice, and was not dissapointed.
