Comments about Digital Concepts Digital Concepts CompactFlash Memory Card Reader (USB 2.0):

I have had mine for over a year, and it has successfully and reliably transferred thousands of images from my compact flash cards. I shoot RAW 95% of the time and the 12 megapixel images from my Nikon don't slow it down a bit.

I've used this for a year and never had any problems with it. It came along with a package deal with my Canon Rebel xti.

I'm surprised at all the bad reviews. :/

The other comments here adequately describe what I think of this product. Do yourself a big favor and stay away from it. Makes you wonder what other junk Ritz is pushing.

Comments about Digital Concepts Digital Concepts CompactFlash Memory Card Reader (USB 2.0):

I am pretty annoyed. I purchased this CF card reader today - the sales person at Ritz actually recommended it to me. I am annoyed because there is not ONE good review on this card reader and they all say the same thing that it does not work. Of course, I came to Ritz.com to see what I was doing because it was not working! Needless to say, I will have to take time out of my busy schedule to take this back. Hello!! Ritz!! It doesn't seem to work for anyone, doncha think its time to discontinue it? Or at least don't have your salespeople "recommending" it. That is even more insulting.

It worked once in my PC but now it doesn't work at all. I have tried it in different computers with different operating systems and no luck. This isn't worth the plastic it is made of! A waste of money I don't have.

This thing is not worth it, even at [$]! I've had it for less then 3 weeks and it's already not working. Tried it on 4 different computers! I have since thrown away the receipt, so now I will have to buy a whole new one. What a waste, I am very annoyed and dissapointed.

Comments about Digital Concepts Digital Concepts CompactFlash Memory Card Reader (USB 2.0):

Very disappointing. Took this on a mission trip to Nicaragua hoping to download pictures from my 4.0GB Compact Flash III but won't be able to do it here. Will have to wait until I'm back to the US, which will really create a problem sending the large files back here. [...]. What a rip off...

Comments about Digital Concepts Digital Concepts CompactFlash Memory Card Reader (USB 2.0):

This reader is complete junk... at [$] - it's a rip-off. It says its compatible with all compact flash but, it's not... it only works with type 1 and 2 cards. I tossed my receipt before I realized this so I'm hosed as they won't take it back... This reader is flimsy and of poor quality... get something else - trust me - NOT GOOD!
