Easy to Use
I used this for my dual computer setup where I had my personal desktop and work laptop connected to keyboard, mouse, and any other random peripheral. Worked well and the connection lag wasn't bad, maybe two or three seconds. The included extended switch is great too, just had that laying by my keyboard for easy swapping.Nowadays I mostly just use it with my personal desktop so that all my cords feed into this one device rather than all having to connect down to the back of my desktop individually.

Works perfectly for switching tame USB 2.0 devices. Excellent value.
This worked perfectly for what I needed it to do. I use this to switch a small collection of USB devices between two computers (a Mac and a PC). I'm switching simple, low-speed USB 2.0 devices such as a USB printer, a USB keyboard, a Logitech wireless dongle, a USB 2.0 multichannel audio interface, etc.At the moment, I haven't tried switching high speed devices like video or external SSD disks. Each of my computers already has their own separate video outputs, network connections, and dedicated backup disks. So I don't want to switch those things. But for everything else: one USB port from each computer is plugged into the UGreen USB switcher, and then downstream from the switch I have a 10-port USB 2.0 hub, which all the shared devices are plugged into.This works perfectly, and I can switch everything between the Mac and the PC with the push of a button. The only extra thing I have to do is press the "input" buttons on my external monitor screens to switch them over to the other computer (and I only need to do this if I leave both computers on, otherwise the video would switch automatically). But no more unplugging and replugging USB cables to switch between computers.The remote button for switching the inputs works great, it has a generously long cord, and it's small enough to stick it anywhere I want on my desk with a 3M command strip. There is a USB-C power input on the UGreen switcher which is optional; I didn't need to use it, it gets enough power from the computers to do what I need it to do.For the price I paid for this switcher (about 40 USD) it is a great value. There are some things I would wish for, but at this price point, these would be extreme luxuries. My wishes would be: A larger, clearer LED indicator to tell whether it's on Input1 or Input2 (its indicator is so small you can't tell without squinting at it), a corresponding indicator on the remote button (for when the switcher box is mounted out of sight), and finally, mounting tabs on the switcher box so that you can mount it under or behind your desk. But I'm able to work around these things easily: I can tell whether it's on the correct input simply by trying to type something on my USB keyboard, and I strapped it behind my desk with some velcro.All in all, pleasantly surprised by how well this worked.

Works very well for me
I liked this product at first but then it stopped switching. I had to click it multiple times to get my mouse functioning. Then it started switching on and off constantly, so I had to pull all my peripherals out before it damaged something.I do not recommend it to anyone. It lasted two months, so can't even return it.EDIT: the switching issue was resolved by powering the hub as recommended by the instructions, and the on and off switching was due to another unrelated issue.The product works as intended and makes my life easier switching between two devices.

Good Product
The button to switch between computers makes this a must have for two computers using the same equipment.The dedicated power port is nice and the device is compatible with most machines that I have used.The design is very slim and you can barely tell it is there.It is very easy to setup and works well most of the time. Every now and again I have to switch back and forth between the devices as my equipment will just stop working as if it is not detected anymore.

Great little switch so far but not perfect for everything
I purchased this switch as I got a new job working from home so I wanted to experiment with using the same set of perphirals for both my work & personal PC as I haven't decided on setting up an extra keyboard/getting a keyboard tray. This was a good time to buy since this is supposed to upgrade the very popular 4-USB3 switch Ugreen has been selling for a few years now and I feel like this is a warranted upgrade. Overall this switch has worked almost flawlessly in my week of use. I have plugged into it my Hyperx 60 keyboard and all the lights & effects/settings I set up still work when plugged in, a G703 mouse and my Logitech C920 camera outputting to my personal desktop and my work laptop.I have tried it both with and without the extra USB C power "boost" and while everything works I think my mouse drains a little quicker (maybe using more battery since the switch isn't meeting 100% power?? might have to test more) but the keyboard and webcam seem to have no issues, I generally do keep a usbc plugged in though just in case. Latency hasnt really been a problem, I tried a mouse latency site with my mouse plugged into my PC and the switch and they both were pretty much the same (and low) which is honestly important for me as I am a big gamer so making sure lag is minimzed is a priority.The only real issue I have had was that I tried using my headphones plugged into the Apple 3.5mm to USBC dongle inputting into the switch and about every 30-40 mins I would get absolutely AWFUL static and noise and it didnt matter how I oriented the dongle so Im guessing there mightve been some interference between the dongle and switch.Overall I'd recommend this as it's great for minimizing desk clutter without compromising performance and it's very affordable at around $35, which is in line with the previous model when it was the main one. It also comes with a little "remote" extension sol you can put the switch somewhere and then have the remote button in a more convenient spot if you're swapping a lot; I haven't used it but it is a nice addition. I wish there was a 3.5mm jack input even if it meant the model being a little larger but this is pretty much a solid buy for anyone WFH or using multiple computers.
