Great strength but lacks charging speed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the braided design. It gives a feeling that the cord is stronger than others and won’t be easily damaged. In addition the cord comes with an attached strap that is great for storing the cable. It keeps in nice and tidy when storing it away. While the design is great and gives this cord an edge the speeds are lacking. The usb plug works with existing chargers but it doesn’t seem compatible to get the most speed for charging. The cord is great when using a device while it is charging. The length makes it easy to use the device anywhere in the household. The best thing about the cable is its strength and storage capability. I don’t have to worry about it getting damaged easily when twisting it up for storage or while devices are shuffled around on the counter. However due to the cord lacking in speeds I will likely opt for a cord that matches the devices branding as it will match the compatibility for charging speeds.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples brand USB C to USB A cable is a great product. Its braided cloth feels very sturdy. Each end is also firmly attached and I am not concerned that is is going to break off. The cable is a great length and was perfect for our recent road trip to allow my kids to plug their iPad into the car’s USB A outlet and have enough space to watch it comfortably in the back seat. When not in use the cable wraps up neatly and is held by the attached cable tie. The data transfer speeds seemed fine both when used in our vehicle and when plugged into a brick attached to a wall outlet. Overall a great product that I recommend for any electronics that need a USB C!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like that this cable has a braided cord design. I have lost many cords to the sharp teeth of a rabbit and though this cord has not directly been subjected to his teeth it seems less likely that he will be drawn to it. The extra long length is a plus. I have used it to charge my gaming headset and other electronic devices while still being able to use them easily. It also comes with a cord wrap to help tighten up unwanted slack. I definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a long cord.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This usb-c to usb-a works perfectly for the hidden ports in our mini van console to charge iPads. It had good charging speed and its longer length ( 2 meters) allowed for the cord to be placed in the console and reach to the back seats of the van allowing the kids to watch iPads. The braided cord quality seems like it will withstand awkward kinks preventing the cord from ripping. However I haven’t had it long enough to comment on its longevity yet.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll be honest... It feels a little silly to be writing a review of a USB-C to USB-A cable. I had never really considered these a purchase that requires much thought in the past but perhaps that's why I've had to buy them so often. Not anymore! I really love that this Staples cable is braided which makes it such a high quality and really reduces the likelihood of it breaking in the future. For me it is the perfect length to include in my travel bag for use with my laptop on my frequent work trips. And the fact that one end is USB-A really helps with the versatility of outlets it can be used with as many do not yet offer USB-C so it's the perfect outlet-to-MacBook cable. It's clear I'll be using this for a long time!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cable was perfect for what I needed it for. Great quality for the price and the cord was sturdy! Data transfer was flawless. I can see myself being able to use this for a while. Good investment.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This USB-C to USB-A cable from Staples is very nice quality - the seams are tight seals all look very well done. The white braided cord feels really nice and substantial in my hand design is clean and modern. The 6.5' ft. cable length is perfect for all of my workspace and nightstand charging needs. I have yet to transfer any data with this cable however the charging speed for my laptop mouse and phone is great and on par with the speeds of today's tech. My absolute favorite feature of this cable is the built in cable tie which keeps it nice and coiled up when I don't need the full length. This is such a nice addition that I really appreciate - thank you Staples for that extra element!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm constantly traveling and taking my laptop with me wherever I go and the cords that came with my laptop were constantly bending and kinking and the wire itself was actually turning yellow just before the plastic casing for the endpoints. This obviously worried me bc it seemed like something was frying inside. So I looked for an alternative wire and these are perfect! They have a woven cable which retains its shape and doesnt kink when I roll it up to place back in my bag. The length is nice and it feels more durable and I can use various usb compatible outlet plugs. Highly recommend.
