I bought this hub and was a little worried after reading the insert. It says may not work for high power hardware (printer, scanner, camera, etc.) and I thought "What the h@## are people going to use it for then? How many mice and keyboards can one have? 4?". So I connected my scanner, printer, external hard drive, and tv tuner to it. No problem! Everything is running without any issues. It can't be beat for $12. If your on a budget and need a product that does it's job, get one of these. Or get 2 and hook them together (making it a 7 port hub)for less $$ than most 4 port hubs.

This USB Hub is simple to use. Just plug it in and it works. One of the best things about it is that it has a long cable - so you're not tightly tethered to the computer. You can put it anywhere in your work space that you want and it lays flat. Performs well.

Tiny, inexpensive but very useful. I needed the longer cable to reach around to the back of my desktop box because the two front USB ports are damaged.

I am not happy with this product. It seems like my computer does not have enough power to run the items plugged into the hub. The hub does have a spot for power adapter but is not included. I did not see anything telling me what power adapter I would need to buy or where I could buy it. Other then those problems the hub does have a long cord attached that allows you to put it almost anywhere you need it.

Once I opened it I found out that it needed an "optional" (that means not included) adapter for use with cameras, printers, etc. I just switched a couple of cables around, and it works fine with my mouse and graphics tablet.

This comes with a cable from the hub to your pc. While certian digital camera software won't work through a usb hub, my hard drive, mouse, and ipod work fine. If you didn't know this, you have to install your hardware for each different usb port, so I found it handy to initally plug my mouse into all the different combinations so that it would work instantly after plugging it in. The cable that is included has a mini-connector where it hooks into the hub, which was kindof disappointing to me because I had wanted to use an extra long cable I had lying around, but this is a minor detail. This is perfect for laptop users who only have a few usb ports. It is very small and portable, and works great.

Nice little hub. Worked right away, after Microsoft said it was ok. I didn't expect it to be so small, must be the travel size.

This was an inexpensive and terrific add-on for my older PC. I had only 2 USB ports in the back that were hard to reach and I was having to swap out all my various USB devices. Now I have the hub on the corner of my desk so it's very accessable. I have 1 caution however, because the hub uses 1 USB port to connect, I had a net gain of 3 ports which are already filled. So, you may want to consider a hub with more than 4 ports if you connect a mouse, keyboard, camera, external hard-drive, IPod, printer(s) etc.

I had bought this for my desktop PC as my rear USB's are full and hard to get at and only having 2 in the front. I use it every time I use my laptop that I recently purchased, it only has 3 USB ports. The port hub is a small item that can be easily slipped into a laptop bag. I have not had the need to use the power capability and have not purchased the AC adaptor to be able to use it that way, but it is a convenient extra added to the device should it be needed.

There isn't much to say about this one, but if you're looking for an inexpensive 4-port USB2 hub go ahead and buy this one.

I've been using it pretty solidly for 6-8 months now and haven't had any issues with it. It's cheap, it works well, and I have had no problems with powered or un-powered devices.
