Disappointing hub, not worth it.

Using this product, our team found that IT had slow data transfer speeds and was not reliable. We experienced frequent connection drops and had difficulty getting multiple devices to work simultaneously.The only positive aspect was the compact size. Overall we do not recommend this hub for networking needs..

Pros
  • Allows multiple devices to be connected to one computer through USB port, saving space and reducing clutter.
Cons
  • Requires additional software installation which can potentially cause compatibility issues with certain operating systems.

Comes with a European power adapter, not a US one

Comes with a power adapter that is designed for a European outlet and doesn't fit an American outlet, so now I have to use an adapter or find a new US power adapter. Pretty annoying as I wanted to use it right away. Seems like a pretty cheap design, but mains powered switches like this are hard to come by. One day / if I can get it working I will update this review

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly crumpled
