    Sturdy and Very good, short in length
    5 out of 5 stars
    Sturdy and Very good, short in length
    It is around 3.7 inches long and perfectly fit to USB A female holder. I bought it to attach USB car perfume diffuser. I personally think adding 1-2 additional inches will be great as wire is sturdy and strong. I recommend this product.

    I needed a small pigtail so that I could leave this item plugged in to my car. The item I have plugged into it or something that I need to unplug fairly often. I wanted this pigtail to take the beating and not my cars USB port. The idea was to leave this plugged into my port and unplug from the back of this instead of from the car port.

    The issue is I needed a high quality item. I am using this for a car computer that cannot be plugged in when I am on base. So every time I drive up to the security gate I need to unplug it. But if it's low quality signal, the car computer will not work.

    This particular brand of product is used by department of defense IT computers. I have known it to be a high quality item so I spent the extra money to buy this version versus some of the cheaper offerings that Amazon has and I wasn't disappointed. This thing is fantastic and it's working as I intended. I feel comfortable recommending this brand of cables all around to anyone as they have never failed on me even when abused.

    I attempted to order several different cable to fit underneath the Huano HNDS6 Monitor Mounts. This was one of the only ones located that was long enough that qualified that I could find.

    Design:
    The Blue Shell provides protection for the cable and is sturdy. When I attempted to house it in the bottom of the monitor stand it protruded from the front.

    Works appropriately when connected to the main computer.

    Item functions as intended but is not recommended if you want it to sit flush under the HNDS6.

    My monitor has a built in USB hub but all the ports are on the back making it a pain to plug anything in. With these I can just reach behind, grab one, and plug something in to it. They're short and stiff enough that when nothing is plugged in they don't dangle beneath the bottom, keeping aesthetic clutter to a minimum.

    I was a little worried that the plastic extending around the female end before I ordered; I thought it might prevent some devices from being fully plugged in. I am happy to report however that I have had no issues plugging in any USB drives or other devices.

    In addition do being as advertised and working correctly, it is definitely constructed a step above your average cable. The plastic molding on the ends is thick and feels well made. The female end especially would provide good resistance to being stepped on over other extension cables with bare ends. This isn't of concern to me, but it's good to feel like the product is robust. In addition to the ends the cable its self seems sturdy and thicker than most "cheap" cables.

    I would, however, expect this cable to be well made, and this brings me to my only con: the price. At the time of purchase this cable costs slightly more than a 10 foot Amazon Basics USB 3.0 extension cable. When you consider this cable cost more than one 20 times longer, the price seems a little high. On the other hand, I'm sure 6" USB cables are in a much lower demand than more typical lengths so the price is somewhat excusable.

    In the end it's a matter of a few dollars, though, so I don't consider it a big deal. I bought one to see if it fit my needs, and purchased two more when I decided it did.

    I bought it because my usb c hub causes problems with a few devices. This one worked fine and showed up those devices when I connected through this little dongle.

    I've purchased a couple of these now because I have a several licensing dongles that would stick rigidly out of a USB port otherwise. And after you break one licensing dongle and deal with the whole replacement process, you too will want to add a safety measure that lets the dongle dangle from the computer and not break when you move something quickly.

    The Good:
    - Short, flexible cable.
    - Dangling dongles won't break when you accidently hit them (or lift a laptop awkwardly).

    The Bad:
    - You're going to wind up buying one for every dongle you have.

    The Meh:
    - For the price, I wish they came in 2 packs. But they are WAY cheaper than lost time because your iLok is busted.

    Had no problems with this cable. Just needed to extend the USB3 port on the rear of my Dell monitor a few inches, to leave and easily-accessible tail I can plug devices into without digging behind the monitor. I've noticed no reduction in transfer speeds. Met my expectations.

    Got an awkwardly placed USB port in my vehicle glove compartment. This extension makes hooking a usb memory stick very easy unlike before. It is short and works well for the space needed. It is firm so it does not bend and is easily damaged. Pricewise it was very reasonable. Delivery time was same day. A+

    As the title suggests there isn't a lot to say about the product really. It seems good quality and does the job as intended. I have no problem with the length of cable as it is as it is. It isn't supposed to be used as an extension but to save the ports on your device from repeated plugging in and unplugging USB plugs.
