With how shipping is to remote areas B&H got me the reader faster than I received my Z 9 camera. The writing on the card is fast and error free. Thanks B&H! 5

I find it hard to review a card reader. It works, appears to be well made, what else is there to say 5

This is a perfect card reader for me. Sits still on my desktop, cards fit in easily and eject easily. The reader is very fast with the USB-C connection. Does exactly what I need it to do. 5

I am an amateur bird photographer and often take hundreds of pictures during an outing. I purchased a Type B card reader from another source, only to discover there is a big difference between CFexpress and other Type B cards. This time, I did what I should have done in the first place and initiated a live chat with a B&H tech. representative. After explaining what I needed to do and what I had to do it with, the rep. steered me to the right products and answered questions about the differences between similar products. I finally selected the SanDisk Extreme Pro as it is cheaper but has the same rate of data transfer as some other brands, and a two year warranty. It downloads RAW picture files from my camera much faster than cable or WiFi and puts the data right where I want it. This product is a good value, just don't make my mistake and make sure it is the right card reader for your application. 5

This reader is so much better than others like the Ziyuetek that I've used. That one heats up the card so much that I can hardly touch it. The SanDisk never heats up and employs a spring loaded system that securely grabs the card when inserted. The form factor makes it easy to grasp and securely insert the card. 5

This is my first CF express card and CFexpress Type B Card Reader, and it is so much faster than my previous cards and readers. Even better, the knowledge and great customer service of B&H was a pleasant surprise. Will always call B&H for my photo needs. 5

I've now used this Type B Card Reader for awhile and find it excellent. It doesn't heat up anything close to as much as others do. Others heat too hot to handle. It is quick to load and eject. 5
