Simple and works very well

Item delivered promptly and work as advertised. Makes USB device access back of TV more easy to reach and connect.

Nice extension, did the job.

Very well made, nice length to extend and/or protect a laptop USB port. Didn't quite work out the way I wanted it to, but nothing to do with the product itself, it is excellent, and works fine.If you need a short USB-A extension, this is a great product for the price!

Allowed use of two USB ports that were close to each other

Worked fine. I bought it because my two USB drives were too wide to plug into ports that were next to each other. This solved the problem.

Very nice jumper

As you would expect, this cable is meant to be a port saver for a device that frequently changes interfacing devices. The cheap price helps justify buying multiple copies of this unit. The connection is solid and the cable itself is well built.

It works

What can I say about this? It's an extension cable and it works. I have a USB 3.0 card installed in my desktop computer and a portable USB 3.0 card reader with a very short cable (because it's more of a laptop product). This cable works just as it should - my card reader still operates at USB 3.0 speeds and I no longer have to reach under the desk to insert or remove SD cards. I like that the cable color is "USB 3.0 blue" to differentiate it from all the black USB 2.0 cables I have around.The exposed metal at the female end keeps this from being a 5 star extension cable. I have a USB 2.0 extension cable (AmazonBasics USB 2.0 Extension Cable) and the female end is encased in plastic. I know that there's not a lot of power running through the cable but I taped the card reader to my desk in such a way that the exposed metal connection isn't near any metal parts, just in case.This is a good, basic USB 3.0 extension cable at a fair price. I'd buy it again.

Quality product

I needed a small pigtail so that I could leave this item plugged in to my car. The item I have plugged into it or something that I need to unplug fairly often. I wanted this pigtail to take the beating and not my cars USB port. The idea was to leave this plugged into my port and unplug from the back of this instead of from the car port.The issue is I needed a high quality item. I am using this for a car computer that cannot be plugged in when I am on base. So every time I drive up to the security gate I need to unplug it. But if it's low quality signal, the car computer will not work.This particular brand of product is used by department of defense IT computers. I have known it to be a high quality item so I spent the extra money to buy this version versus some of the cheaper offerings that Amazon has and I wasn't disappointed. This thing is fantastic and it's working as I intended. I feel comfortable recommending this brand of cables all around to anyone as they have never failed on me even when abused.

Functions as Intended (Not Recommended for HUANO HNDS6)

I attempted to order several different cable to fit underneath the Huano HNDS6 Monitor Mounts. This was one of the only ones located that was long enough that qualified that I could find.Design:The Blue Shell provides protection for the cable and is sturdy. When I attempted to house it in the bottom of the monitor stand it protruded from the front.Works appropriately when connected to the main computer.Item functions as intended but is not recommended if you want it to sit flush under the HNDS6.

Fantastic cable to protect licensing dongles (vis iLok, Fusion)

I've purchased a couple of these now because I have a several licensing dongles that would stick rigidly out of a USB port otherwise. And after you break one licensing dongle and deal with the whole replacement process, you too will want to add a safety measure that lets the dongle dangle from the computer and not break when you move something quickly.The Good:- Short, flexible cable.- Dangling dongles won't break when you accidently hit them (or lift a laptop awkwardly).The Bad:- You're going to wind up buying one for every dongle you have.The Meh:- For the price, I wish they came in 2 packs. But they are WAY cheaper than lost time because your iLok is busted.
