Essential add-on
For anyone that wants to stand their PS3 on its side, this is probably an essential add-on. If you are going to pay over 400 pounds for your console and do not have a safe place to stand it, then this makes the ps3 resist all but the heaviest of knocks. The Blue lighting definitely enhances the PS3's looks, but can be switched off if you are sitting down to watch a movie. The light is also a reminder that you have left your PS3 switched on because the light goes out when the PS3 is switched off. Lastly, it should be made clear that although this base offers 2 USB ports, it also uses one USB port from the PS3 to provide power and USB service, so you only gain one port, not two, but an extra port is still a useful addition.

A nice (although technically pointless) piece of kit for your PS3
I say pointless because the shape of the PS3 makes it very sturdy when stood vertical. However this jazzes the whole think up nicely and the black plastic perfectly matches the outer shell of the PS3. The Blue LEDs are a nice touch and don't look tacky at all, nor are they too bright. They can also be switched off via a toggle at the front.

All in all its a nice addition to the console, other reviewers are correct in that the additional USB slots are technically cut down to 1 as you have to plug this into one of the existing ports as it is, however I like this as the new USB slots are at the BACK, so you can have your charger leads plugged in there instead so they don't trail around the front. The review by user "jaguda1" is incorrect as the unit comes with a permanently attached USB lead that is mounted beneath it, which has to be detached from its housing and plugged into the front of the PS3. Thus it is impossible to receive one of these without the lead as stated.

A perfect match
I cannot imagine that the PS3 looks as good without a vertical stand and this stand is impressive. The sharp blue lights around the base reflect off the shiny surface and set it off a treat.

Probably one of the best value accessories for your PS3.
