Content: I bought this USB hub for an older (2005) iMac. It certainly solves the problems of dealing with multiple USB-powered peripherals. One issue I did notice was that when I had 5-6 plugs used, my computer had difficulty starting up... in fact, it didn't start up until I unplugged all but 1-2 devices. Certainly, I wouldn't blame the product for this. It may be my older iMac, or one of those weird tech issues that never quite has a reason. I suppose it may be like plugging too many electrical devices into an extension cord. Whatever the case, it is simply something to watch out for. Oh, and it isn't exactly weighted as the product blurb states. I doubt that it would tip over, but that has more to do with its shape. You aren't going to be able to plug and unplug without moving the hub - which is sort of what I expected.
Summary: Great item, but...

Content: I ordered 1 set, when I opened it, it had lots of scratches. Amazon was kind enough to send me a replacement but it came with scratches as well...
Summary: Refurbish?

Content: Saw this as a deal of the day. Read the reviews on Amazon and several other sites and decided to give it a try. I bought one for me and my husband. It has freed up all but one port on my computer. I have a zip drive that I still use and the domehub would not recognize it. It's not that old, but too old to use with this hub. But, I have connected the following items to it and they work fine - a scanner, a laser printer, a Maxtor external drive, a flash drive and the mouse, plus the free light that came with the dome hub. It easy to connect and disconnect the items, and the domehub does not take up much room at all.
Summary: Good idea

Content: I just bought an iMac with only 3 USB ports, so this little USB hub was the perfect solution to the problem. It holds its own aesthetically next to the iMac and makes it easy to have all of my iPod cable/iPhone cable/thumb drive USB accessories easily accessible.
Summary: attractive and handy

Content: A nice product. Provides a usb hub that supports the 2.0 protocol, and a usb powered light to boot! What's not to like? Its attractive and functional.
Summary: Does just what is promises
