    Easy to Use

    Bought a camera that demands Compact Flash cards. My computer did not have a CF Reader, so I tried this product.

    Bought a camera that demands Compact Flash cards. My computer did not have a CF Reader, so I tried this product.

    EXCELLENT!

    Easy and quick to use. I keep it near the computer. Just connect the short USB cord to my computer, insert the CF card and then move my files into my PC. PERFECT!

    Highly recommend this product.

    When finished, I disconnect the USB cord and then press the top button and slide the button toward the back of the reader. Next, I place the USB portion back into its designated spot on the reader. Easy, quick, convenient, compact sized and very affordable.

        I just plug in the usb and I can see all the videos that I have recorded in my camera. I didn't thought that I was supposed to need another thing besides the memory card to see my stuff but it's worth.

          The Jobo Card Reader works great - just plug and play. It read the files fast and exited the desk top quickly too. Not really a down side but you do need a powered usb or it will not work, for example the usb on your keyboard does not have enough juice to run the reader.

                It worked well from the first time I plugged it in, and cards read from it very quickly. Only complaint is that I don't like the SD slot, but the CF slot (the reason I bought it) is far deeper than most, making it really easy to insert CF cards.

                Straight forward design with three slots 2 small for the new cards and a large one for the CF cards. Very portable with a detachable usb cord included. Reads very fast, cards are easy to insert. Only con is that you must insert the card prior to attaching cord to the usb port on your computer, not a big deal for ocassional users. Curiously it does not need drivers.

                          Purchased eight of these for friends /family and County Senior Center (where I volunteer). Seems to work fine. I've only been able to try it on the three memory card types I own. Will try more types at the center.
                          They will be a great help for the almost endless variety of memory card types at Senior Center .

                              Great accessory for a great price. Lightweight, plug-and-play and takes the same mini-B USB cable as my other accessories, so there's no need to pack yet another cable. Would recommend this item to anyone who needs an x-in-1 card reader.

                                            Picked this up because the price was good and it was versatile. We have only used it with SD and CF cards so far, but it has worked fine as expected.

                                              Fast, easy to use, don't need any driver or software. Very good product.

                                                Very solid and just as good or better than most of the pricy brand names. Feels better built than the $40 reader that I own.
