Review on High-Speed Aluminum USB 3.0 Memory Card Reader Adapter - CF, SD, Micro SD - Juiced Systems by Daniel Pyfer

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I bought it because it was the cheapest but most durable card adapter I could find that supports both.

I had to pay a few bucks more for something from a trusted brand. I bought this because it was the cheapest but most durable card adapter that supports both CF and SD. The first thing that struck me is that the SD cards fit right into this thing. Not a big problem as long as it lasts for a while for me. Unfortunately, after only 3 months of minimal use, one of the pins of the CF slot was already bent. So one less user and one less customer coming back to buy something from this company. Addendum: I took a screwdriver and bent the pin, the CF card fits again. I changed my rating from 2 to 3 stars but maybe I'm still too critical of her. Compared to my last purchase of a cheap card reader, this is a solid 5 out of 5 stars. The PC reads the contents every time I plug it in and I never have to fiddle with the card to keep it in the right position. Position for Windows to detect it. It's also pretty solid, apart from the fact that the stylus is curved. I could go with 3 or 4 stars with this one.

Cons
  • The list is getting long.
