Powered USB Hub, atolla Aluminum 5-Port USB 3.0 Hub with 4 USB 3.0 Data Ports and 1 USB Smart Charging Port, USB Splitter with 5V/3A Power Adapter and Individual Switches

Not had an issue with this at all. Use it with the Plug, not connected to a computer. does great in keeping other items up and running! Very helpful!

Ive had this before and it lasted for a few years before a few of the ports stopped working. I figured it was better than the wear and tear on my laptop. This works great and this version of the hub has a longer cord which is very helpful.

I bought this USB hub for my wife, mostly because her computer has a problem where the mouse stopped working when using more than one USB port. This hub has solved the problem, now everything is connected to the hub and having switches to turn on and off each device avoids the wear and tear. It also has 1 smart charging ports for the phone, headphones, etc, which is very useful. A good purchase for a fair price that has saved the day.

A very nice little USB hub that allows me to expand my laptop very easily. Great value for the money. Love the fast-charge port and the individually switched ports.

This is working great for my new laptop that has fewer USB ports than I need. I tested it and this powered hub works fine with WD MyPassport USB drives, which do not like an unpowered hub. However, in my final configuration, I have an old HP laser printer, an Epson Scanner, and my mouse plugged into it, saving two of my laptops high-speed USB 3 ports for external drives, that I only plug-in occasionally. I use it more like a dock for my laptop. Pleased that its fast enough to plug my mouse into. Glad I bought it.

Bought this to use it to hook up cables inside what will be a modified virtual pinball machine but havent used it yet...

Good for small usb ports on desk

Its good for the price. I dont have it hooked up to a p.c. its running led lights under the bed to see at night as well as to change our phones. (And as people should know dont fully cover wiring that is a safety issue) we have a high rise bed that allows plenty of air flow.

At first, it was great. I was loving having these extra USB ports. But about a few hours later, while in discord (a voice chat with multiple people), while chatting with friends, they all started to yell and freak out that my mic was making a very loud, displeasing sound. At first I thought maybe it was the headset, but when I plugged it into my computer, they said they didnt hear any loud static and it sounded great. But when I plugged it back into the USB hub, the yelling to mute my mic started again. I tried plugging my mouse into the hub instead of the headset (I have limited USB ports in my laptop so i can only have one or the other plugged in) it worked at first. But after a few minutes, my mouse stopped responding, I would power down and power back up the port my mouse was in and it would just happen again. Tried to unplug it all and plugging it back in and had the same issues. If you are planning to use this for a mouse or headset, keep looking. This will only support them for a few minutes before your friends shriek in pain from your headset blowing up the voice chat and youll get very angry trying to move a non-responsive mouse after unplugging and plugging it back in over and over. Not worth it and returning. P.S. I ordered the larger Atolla USB hub after this one wouldnt work, and had the same exact issues. I am now on my 3rd USB hub, this time a different brand. Wish me luck!

My laptop had 3 USB ports but with cameras, headphones, and wireless keyboard, I was running out. This device worked exactly as described.
