I have used several different makes and models of USB wireless adapters and this one ranks "near" the top in quality construction, accessories, and performance. I'd rate it a B+. I need an extension cable and (heavy = stable) cradle for my application and the ones supplied were ideal. This adapter works fine with my old Windows computer. The only reason I won't give it an A+ rating is that it doesn't work out-of-the-box for Linux. Some of these devices DO have native Linux drivers and are easy to set up, but this one needs the ndiswrapper workaround to function. Once correctly set up for Linux, the adapter works just fine.
