Comments about Delkin Delkin Reader-38, 18-in-1 Memory Card Reader/Writer with USB 2.0 Interface, for Mac & Windows.:

Unit has been tested with CF and SD cards. Transfer speeds appear to be equal to other readers used and limited by the card rather than the reader. No software installation required--just plugged in.

This products is very handy down the road. You can actually transfer documents from a different memory cards or memory sticks. The only problem is the slot is kind of tight, other than that it is a good product to have.

Comments about Delkin Delkin Reader-38, 18-in-1 Memory Card Reader/Writer with USB 2.0 Interface, for Mac & Windows.:

I had purchased a card reader not too long ago that is incompatible with my computer. Their instruction said to install a driver for it but after it was installed it still didn't work. So I purchased the Delkin reader. Got it from Adorama with a couple days. Opened it. Plug the usb cord and viola! everything works. Good product.

I first came into contact with the Delkin Reader at the Adorama Store when I needed to download my photos. So simple and easy to use. Photos downloaded flawlessly. Then I went to purchase one for myself I saw that the price was just amazing. Thanks Adorama, I'm a fan for life!

Comments about Delkin Delkin Reader-38, 18-in-1 Memory Card Reader/Writer with USB 2.0 Interface, for Mac & Windows.:

I was very disappointed with this product. Delkin has a very good name. But when I received this reader I found the SD slot to be extremely tight. So much so that I feared damaging my sd cards by inserting and removing them. To be fair, I don't know if this is unique to the particular unit I got or is a design defect common to all units in this model line.

To their credit Delkin support was excellent and allowed me to return it.

Comments about Delkin Delkin Reader-38, 18-in-1 Memory Card Reader/Writer with USB 2.0 Interface, for Mac & Windows.:

Works as advertised. The Secure Digital is quite tight and worries me that it may someday damage the memory card. I wouldn't mind paying twice the amount if the card reader were built more ridgidly. Occassionally, on my PC when I right click and request an Eject, nothing happens. Next time I put a memory card in, Windows Explorer may not read it. Reboot corrects problem. Really don't care for this. Older card reader (which I use for Compact Flash Card never behaves like this.

Comments about Delkin Delkin Reader-38, 18-in-1 Memory Card Reader/Writer with USB 2.0 Interface, for Mac & Windows.:

Works much easier and faster than I thought it would. Don't know why I waited so long to buy this type of product. It downloads my big file jpgs into iPhoto or Photoshop Elements on my Mac about 3 times faster than the camera does and I never have to worry about my camera battery quiting midway in the session.
It's a joy to use.
