Great product out of the box, and it continues to impress! I've been waiting a bit to write this review in order to give the product a thorough workout. I can now confidently say that this is the best KVM switch I've tried so far and is definitely a keeper.I've tried a few others, but the main issues I experienced with those were that they inconsistently seemed to stop working, or perhaps more accurately, stopped recognizing the "active" system, requiring me to execute a "switch" to the 2nd computer, even if that system was not currently powered on, and then a switch back to get the keyboard to be recognized by the active system once again. In other words, at random moments, I'd suddenly find that the keyboard stopped working. Switching away from, then back to the active system fixed the problem each time, but it was definitely an annoyance at best, and depending on what was going on / what I was doing at the time, a major hassle. I have NOT experienced that problem with this switch in several months of use ... not once, not ever.A related, though less frequent problem with some of the other KVMs ... on boot up, the monitor would not be recognized. It would feel like the computer was booting up, but the monitor would just sit there blank, the power light pulsing as it does when it's "asleep" and there is no input. Once again, cycling the "switch" would fix the problem, but I shouldn't have to do that! And once again, THIS KVM switch has not misbehaved in this fashion.In contract to those "others" ... this KVM switch includes a remote button which is a SUPER nice feature and allows me to stash the box out of sight and off my desktop. A small, unobtrusive button is all that needs to be visible and easily accessible. This is a big plus towards much neater cable management. Additionally, the "shared" USB ports have proven to be surprisingly useful. At first, I didn't expect these to come into play very much since both systems are on the local network and it's not a big deal to transfer files, etc. between them. I didn't think I'd be using the USB ports very much. But once I got this KVM, I discovered that the ports have actually been quite useful. There are times when I'm working on something that I would like to use on my other 'puter, but if it isn't booted up at the moment, I'd have to either start it up, or make a mental note to complete the transfer at a later time. No longer. Just save to a plugged in removable drive / USB stick, and access it on the other system whenever it's convenient. I've also been using this feature a lot to access media files, or portable programs that I don't necessarily want or need to have installed on both systems. The shared USB ports are fast and reliable.All in all, I've been very happy with my purchase and have recommended it to others who are in similar -- i.e., multi-computer setup -- situations. I'm delighted to have found a product that "Just Works" as it is supposed to, without minor, but annoying hiccups. And I've found that having the ability to share USB resources is actually a lot more useful than I thought it would be.Build quality is very good, and I do like the size, the metal case instead of plastic, and the clearness of indicator lights and controls. Again, a great product and one I'm happy to recommend wholeheartedly.

This is a cheap solution if you're looking for a KVM switch, and it works just fine. The HDMI supports 60Hz and the USB is 2.0, which is fine for mice and keyboards. The cables are included, so you get everything you need to run two computers from the same desktop setup. I have used this with a Windows desktop and either a Raspberry Pi or a Macbook Pro, and it has worked great with all of them. Just hit the button on top and it flips between the two sources. Easy, effective, and cheap. I remember spending nearly $400 on a good KVM about 25 years ago (and it was huge!), so it's nice to see they are a commodity at this point.
