Quality


Works good, just take car with the conector


It looks great and is a very useful product.


Lots of companies send you to a broken website with little or no information on the product.


I had an issue with the bigger harries.

Price

Just think the price is alittle high.


It does come with an ac adapter which is helpful but the price still seems about double what it should be.

Shipping


We were thrilled by the great price offered by this seller (hot deals 4 less) and the expedient shipping!


One caveat, the fast charge function seems to require that you use the separate power adapter.

Packaging/appearance


I finally had the chance to try out the startech usb-c hub on a recent business trip where i took along my work-issued laptop.


So far, so good, and it's been working great right out of the box.

    One of the things i have plugged into one of the ports is somewhat large rendering the space next to is unusable even for more standard sized plugs the slots are pretty close together and could be difficult for maneuvering for some folks with dexterity issues

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is not a hub that you plug into a usb 3


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
