The USB connection to your device does NOT swivel 360 degrees and they say that in the advertising. So if you have ports on the left side of your machine, keep in mind that some of the hub's ports may be unreachable. I would have thought it would be designed so it can pull out and be attached from the left easily too. Really diminishes usefulness.

My computer has four USB ports, all of which are used in running my standard peripherals. I purchased this item to provide an extra USB port for using my jump drive with my desk computer without having to unplug my printer. Unfortunately, when the mobile hub is installed it uses one port but covers up another, no matter which one I install it. That necessitates having to unplug a peripheral and plug it into the mobile hub along with the jump drive. However, when using more than one port on the mobile hub, the connection to the computer wobbles and fails to make good contact.

Comments about Staples 4-Port USB 2.0 Mobile Hub:

Great! I bought it just a week ago, impressed with its portability. The port folds inward so that it's a thin square, and adds 3 USB 2.0 ports. Great for Mac laptops which tend to have few USB ports.

On its way home from Staples to its place in my laptop bag, it first went throgh the washer. Oops! I was happy to discover all 4 ports worked fine!

simple hook up, works well on my mac. and PC. Doesn't have a booster, so the more devices you hook up the slower you reading and receiving will be.

Comments about Staples 4-Port USB 2.0 Mobile Hub:

My laptop only has 3 USB ports - one is occupied by mouse reciever. I have 4 flash drives that I use for file storage. I could only use 2 at a time with this hub because there was not enought space between the ports to insert all 4.

Comments about Staples 4-Port USB 2.0 Mobile Hub:

I bought this to add ports to my older Dell Dimension 2400. It works... though it's really for a laptop and I had to use a USB "extension cord" to plug it in.
