Fantastic product that fully meets my needs

I don't usually write rave reviews but this was an amazing find. Although it was a bit pricey, if it suits your use case, it's worth it. For reference, I've been using it for two weeks now, 14 hours a day. I alternate between a Mac for work and a Windows desktop for gaming and personal projects. I have 4 monitors total - I bought this KVM switch with the intention of using 3 out of 4 on my two machines (a work Mac gets a 4th monitor) and it does just that. I was very pleasantly surprised. make sure this switch comes with all the necessary cables to connect all your devices to it; I fully expected that I would have to buy missing cables. The only downside to this is that when you're done connecting it's a pretty messy bundle of cables (not that it's anything particularly new if, like me, you've used 3+ monitors before). Thankfully, the included remote button comes to the rescue. I hid all the cables behind the monitors, and the remote control comes out in front of them - this makes the installation in front very neat, and only I know what horrors hide behind the screens. I assume our cats judge me for venturing up to the table. For $370, I had a bit of trouble gritting my teeth. But when I found out that all my computer gear for machines and monitors was already worth about $4,000, suddenly it wasn't so bitter. For those working from home now and for the foreseeable future this is a great help and I would not hesitate to buy again for a future setup.

Pros
  • USB 2.0 KVM SWITCH 2 COMPUTERS 3 MONITORS
