Cable looks solid and offers efficient transmission. However, for family members from seventh grade to grandparents, it is almost impossible to remove the plug unaided. We've plugged the cable into a variety of ports including Smart TV, Xbox, Laptop and Switch, all with the same simple insertion problem but difficult removal problem. We used a Phillips screwdriver to squeeze the lever hard enough to loosen and remove the connector, but still encountered some difficulty. I have years of experience with ethernet cables and before that phone line cables with similar release levers and have had few problems with this type of removal. This is a disappointing feature of what otherwise seems like an excellent product.
