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!

 
Delkin Reader 38
By golderVerified Purchaser from los angeles on 7/23/2008
Pros:
Good price, Lightweight
Cons:
Poor Interface, Weak Construction
Best Uses:
Digital Capture, Digital Photography, Image Storage
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.

 
Reads anything digital
By SteveEVerified Purchaser from Cedar Rapids, IA on 7/23/2008
Pros:
Reads lots of mem cards
Cons:
Weak Construction
Best Uses:
Image Storage
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

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.

What a little jewel!
By WaltVerified Purchaser from near Philadelphia, PA on 2/5/2007
Pros:
Fast, Reliable, Slim, Versatile
Best Uses:
Back-Up, Pro consumer cameras, Travel
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

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.
