good quality
build quality is better than I expected. No Video switching but thats ok. comes with some usb cables of decent length to connect devices. the wired remote for switching is super useful, i can hide the device away and still use it.

Works well with camera and audio devices too!
I use this to share my webcam (Logitech C925e on USB-A) and headset (Audeze Maxwell on USB-C). I am switching between my work laptop and my personal desktop.No extra software/drivers required (important for my work computer!) and after several weeks of using it, it seems really stable and reliable.Both devices are able to activate and work within a couple of seconds of switching. Not much more to say, it just works.

Great convenience for switching between PC and Laptop but should have provided adapters
The media could not be loaded. This is a very convenient device that enables me to use my keyboard and ergonomic mouse on both my desktop and laptop which I often need to access both in the same session. This of course saves space on the desk in connecting two separate keyboard and mice.As shown in my video, I am able to switch between laptop and desktop with considerable ease by the press of a switch. An even bigger convenience is it provides a lengthy extension cable switch, so as shown in my photo, I have the main body switch embedded in my cable and power management rack under my desk, with the wired remote button switch on my desk, keeping my desk free from clutter.However, I have one issue. It came with one USB-C to USB-A cable which is assuming I have one computer with a USB-C port and the other computer a USB-A port. This is an unnecessary assumption. Now my PC only have one USB-C port which is occupied by another device. My older laptop doesn't have a USB-C port at all. So, this UGreen switch kit is incomplete to provide its intended solution. Fortunately, I have a data USB-C to USB-A cable that I used in replace of the USB-C - USB-C cable provided. UGreen should have simply provided two USB-C cables with a USB-C -USB-A male adapter tethered on each cable. Simple and would have hardly added to cost.Another cable they didn't provide is a USB-C power cable capable of up to 12W power carriage. This is for the power port which is 5V 2.4A (=12W). Although not seen in my picture because the bottom of the switch is hidden, I connected a power cable to a 15W USB-A power port, to provide enough power for more devices such as memory sticks etc.So as a switch solution, this kit is missing at least one USB-C to USB-A adapter but optionally for this high price point, it would have also been nice to provide the USB-C power only cable too.As for the switch itself, its superb. Switching is fast and easy, and under windows 11 and windows 10, no drivers need to be installed, its plug and play.An example of my usage is that I am a timelapse photographer and I frequently store timelapses on my older laptop connected to my DSLR camera. So, at my desk, I would do preliminary work on the files on my laptop, whilst using the PC for other resources. This switch makes that life much easier as using the laptop keyboard and trackpad is never a comfortable experience for intense work.

Just perfect!
Have been using this for a week or two and love it!My setup is:1 work laptop, and 1 personal laptop;1 wired keyboard, 1 wireless headset, and 1 wireless mouse - all 3 connect to this dock so I can easily switch all 3 devices between work and personal computers. Simple and fast switching, love it.I don't mind having to manually switch the 2 monitors, also shared between both laptops, as that gives me the freedom to switch only one or the other and keep tabs on the other laptop, whilst using the second one.

Does the job perfectly
I bought this so that I could connect the peripherals to my desktop and laptop without changing the wires. Does the job perfectly. Highly recommend.
