Cheapest option that works great

I was a bit hesitant to buy it because it was about half the price of other sellers (no brand name) but I have my xbee programmable and very easy to use. No problem and I will probably buy again.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

DTR, RTS, CTS not connected

The board works well and has a reset button which some others don't have. It is important to note that DTR, RTS, and CTS are not associated with the USB serial interface chip. This is indicated on the chart. There are blank pads that you can solder a small piece of wire to to make these connections. This was what I needed to do to continue communicating with my XBee after switching to 115200 baud. I'm assuming they're left blank for you to use externally, but I think they should be filled in by

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • A few small things

Good USB for your XBEE - Need extra drivers for some Macs -

I almost sent it back because it didn't fit in XCTU on my Mac. Luckily I found this review https://www.amazon.com/gp/feedback/leave-consolidated-feedback.html?ie=UTF8&isCBA=&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&mode=eligibility&orderID=114-2009261-2019439&ref_=fb_multi_cfb& which brought me to the right place led driver. . When I installed it, it worked straight away. It's nice and solid, and I love that it has a nice array of buttons (especially for reset) and indicators, unlike the cheaper adaptersโ€ฆ

Pros
  • understandable even for old ones
Cons
  • Low maintainability
