My review :
The package is neat, solid and essential. Inside the box you find the USB hub, the power cable and 1 USB connection cable, 1.5 m , for my needs it was just right (as I positioned the unit close to my laptop), but keep this in mind in case you need a longer cable.
At first glance the overall quality seems pretty good, the electric cables are good and the electric socket has an ergonomic shape for easy unplug. Below the usb hub there are two thin rubber stripes that guarantee a nice grip on smooth surfaces. The transformer has a green small light to indicate connection to electricity.
Each USB port has its own switch.
I connected via the hub to my macbook pro (maxOS 11.6) four hard disks, two solid states disks, one usb pen, an usb cable charging four AA batteries, and another usb cable charging my headphones. I performed several operations on the disks at the same time (running python programs, transferring files, visualising PDF files, etc). During these operations, I also removed some of the devices without experiencing connection problems.
So far, everything seems pretty good and it works as described. I did not run any "serious" test (like speed tests with different type of files and usb devices), but for me it's a 10/10 .
