  Piece of junk December 26, 2006 This device lasted less than a year. I plugged in and it worked fine at first, then all of a sudden started having problems. Couldn't tell if it was the USB port in the PC or the hub/reader until THE JACK ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT SNAPPED AND FELL INTO THE HUB! I would recommend you stay away from this brand.
And yes, the stand was useless.
  Works great but won't stay put! December 14, 2006 Love the product!! The only beef I have is that the damn things base is made of rubber but it won't hold the product in place. It just won't stay put so it keeps falling over and makes things a bit messy. Besides that it works just fine.
  Great Idea December 8, 2006 This hub allowed me to condense two things in to one. It gives you a nice card reader, plus a usb hub with a couple of front mounted usb plugs. It's also white so it matches my iMac nicely.
It's worked good for me so far, however the speeds on the card reader seem kind of slow, but that may be due to other reasons.
  Good when works October 30, 2006 The USB hub and reader was great when worked. Suddenly it stop working Good while it last (about 6 months) I'll try to get another from other manufacturer
  Looks nice, and that's about it July 28, 2006 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I thought this would be the best hub for the price it was offered for, 6 ports, USB 2.0, and a card reader. It looks sleek, too, like something Apple could have designed. However, just about everything about it is flawed. Like other reviewers mentioned, this hub will randomly stop and turn back on, causing Windows to detect all the devices being connected repetitively. It's a major hassle to try and copy photos since the hub will 'hiccup' like I mentioned before, corrupting the photo transfer process. I disabled the card reader device in Device Manager because it will add 4 drives to My Computer, for each card slot. Pretty much everything I've ever connected to this hub has given me problems. My HP printer will sometimes stop working because of the hiccup. My Logitech MX700 mouse will stop moving until I disconnect the usb cable and replug it back in. Bluetooth is unstable. This thing is a hassle, think twice before buying it.
