Customer Reviews

Kensington mini USB hub
Good value considering the low price. The ports are close together, but I have found it very useful to connect a mouse, wireless adapter and speakers therefore freeing up two more of the laptop ports. I have had no need for a power adaptor, but then I have only made modest demands on it. As a basic hub at a low price it functions well.

Hmmmmmm
Useless item. Says it will only cope small temporary devices like memory pens. Oh and you need to use slot 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 if you want to insert more than one as the ports are very close together.

Would not detect my camera, mp3 player (bog standard 2GB one), and a memory pen attached.... as for the 3rd port well I could fit nothing in it. I could get 2 of the items recognised when I removed one of the others.

Not impressed. I only bought the thing as the front USBs on my system are becoming a tad loose and I don't want them completely knackered. I will look for a decent product by Belkin and give this piece of junk 4portthub away to some other poor sod.

Excellent little device for the money
Received this today, plugged it in, was recongised as a "new device" and installed itself. Then simply plugged in a webcam, iPod, scanner and Blackberry. Possibly this overloaded it a tad as the scanner did not seem to kick in (I noted previous reviews about power consumption - you can buy separately an external power supply to connect to the device if you wish), however when I removed the Blackberry I could scan, transfer files to the iPod and watch myself on the webcam. Highly unlikely that I would use more than 2 devices at the same time so it does exactly what I want it to, i.e. save me having to relentlesly unplug and re-plug in devices to my USB ports.

Would have liked a longer cable (only a couple of centimeters) but considering the cost, I think this device is very well worth the money - it was delivered in 2 days, so very quick service too.
