I bought this hub and was a little worried after reading the insert. It says may not work for high power hardware (printer, scanner, camera, etc.) and I thought "What the h@## are people going to use it for then? How many mice and keyboards can one have? 4?". So I connected my scanner, printer, external hard drive, and tv tuner to it. No problem! Everything is running without any issues. It can't be beat for $12. If your on a budget and need a product that does it's job, get one of these. Or get 2 and hook them together (making it a 7 port hub)for less $$ than most 4 port hubs.

This USB Hub is simple to use. Just plug it in and it works. One of the best things about it is that it has a long cable - so you're not tightly tethered to the computer. You can put it anywhere in your work space that you want and it lays flat. Performs well.

Tiny, inexpensive but very useful. I needed the longer cable to reach around to the back of my desktop box because the two front USB ports are damaged.

I am not happy with this product. It seems like my computer does not have enough power to run the items plugged into the hub. The hub does have a spot for power adapter but is not included. I did not see anything telling me what power adapter I would need to buy or where I could buy it. Other then those problems the hub does have a long cord attached that allows you to put it almost anywhere you need it.

Once I opened it I found out that it needed an "optional" (that means not included) adapter for use with cameras, printers, etc. I just switched a couple of cables around, and it works fine with my mouse and graphics tablet.
