Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Just right for 2 computers, 2 screens

This is a solid choice as a KVM switch device. Cables are limited to VGA, so adapters are needed if plugging in to other ports on your CPU, laptop, or laptop port. Instructions could be just a bit clearer, but were adequate. Performance is fine, good.
