My review :
Pros: It just works; plug it in, plug USB drives in, they appear in the
desktop. Anyone can use it. Doesn't say in the description but it does come with a power lead as well although you'll only need to use this if you're using multiple external hard drives or using this with a raspberry pi. Customer support is excellent any problems just e-mail them. Looks much better in real life than the pictures and feels very high quality and the brushed aluminium looks very smart. Definitely recommended for a stylish workstation. Speeds are exactly what you would expect with USB 3.0 and makes me wonder why I paid extra for a case with front USB 3.0 ports when my case is under my desk and these 7 are on my desk which is far more convenient. The angle of the ports is very good so plugging them in is easy much better than horizontal USB hubs which involve two hands and lifting the hub to get them in, here its just one hand, super convenient.
Cons: It is quite expensive. The USB ports are quite stiff and you'll have to get quite some wear into it before your USB sticks easily slot in.
Other: Haven't used the velcro sticky pads for very long but they seem very substantial and hold the HUB very nicely on he desk. Time will tell how long they'll last but from first impressions I would assume a long time.
Overall I think it is quite expensive and there are cheaper options out there but this product is definitely worth every penny. You're getting a very good quality USB hub that is well designed and comes with a power lead, USB 3.0 cable and velcro sticky pads which a lot of the cheaper ones skimp on. Also great customer support which to me is super important.
