Excellent!!!

plugable usb-c gigabit network adapter: This device is useful for MacBooks and other USB-C devices (it also worked with my android phone) that don't have network adapters built in where you want or need the reliability of a wired connection.  Verified throughput using the speedtest feature on my router.  Using my MacBook Pro, the plugable was able to achieve the maximum throughput.  Potential cons are that it's a single function accessory, as opposed to a hub which might provide additional USB ports, video, and power in addition to networking support.  It's also only gigabit, not supporting multi-gig (2.5/5 gbps) speeds.  Overall, this is an excellent network adapter.

Good converter

I tested the Ethernet to usb c connector. It's great for my laptop since it has usb c but not Ethernet. I like the speed is fast and easy to transfer data speed. The build quality is also good for lasting a long time

Good value for money.

This is beautiful sleek flexible design, in a lovely stylish. It works brilliantly, and I just wish I had bought this sooner. It's a brilliant fit and exactly the neat small sise I wanted, it's great value for money (even if it were more expensive, I still would have bought it).The setup is straightforward just plug it in and it works. It's compatible with a variety of devices, which is great because I switch between my iPad and iPhone. Plus, it's small enough to fit in my bag, so I can take it with me when I travel.
