Pros:
Really nice form factor, plug it in your breadboard and do whatever you want. Does what it is designed to do. Converts signals from 3.3V to 5V. Tested with Arduino and pinguino with I2C humidity sensors, gps, motorola C115 LCDs and a lot of devices that ru...
Cons:
Nothing really. Quality is not the best, but it's ok for the price

Pros:
It works exactly as you would expect: connect 5V and GND to one side, 3.3V and GND to the other, and you can shift up to 4 bidirectional signals between 3.3V and 5. This adapter is a must-have if you're working with 3.3V boards like the Raspberry Pi. I've...
Cons:
None, really. For 4 bidirectional lines, the price is right.
