I have used SD and SmartMedia cards so far (at the same time), and the unit works flawlessly, no loose connections or problems reading the cards.

However, please note that the "microSD (SD adapter included)" description is incorrect, it is NOT included (the package even reads "MicroSD adapter required").

It's small, it installs each card as a different drive, includes a utility that labels which drive letter takes which card, and lets you know when a card has been recognized. It has a activity light which isn't very informative, but at least lets you know when the card is being accessed. I especially liked that it doesn't load a bunch of digital media file management bloatware. However, it usually requires some removing and re-inserting and wiggling to get it to recognize SD and MMC cards. Also, as you might expect, it's plastic and feels light and cheap. I have no idea how long it will last.

EDIT 3-2006: Had to uninstall the software that labeled the slots by the media type, because it was buggy and kept crashing explorer.

I've tried three different card readers, and this is the only one I like using. I only have Compact Flash cards, so that's all I use it for. But The two previous card readers I've used, the pins that read the data were bent and a pain to fix. That's why I bought this card reader. I'm very pleased that it is designed so there is pretty much no chance of bending the pins while inserting your card, so it should continue to work for a very long time. Great buy.
