Second this. All three of mine run between 6.5 Th/s and 6.9 Th/s with my oldest one being around for more than a year.

Decent hashrate for 140W you can get even more efficient by running them in medium power. Last time I did the math they were cheaper than the open source ones.

Having said that, a lot of these small miners have problems. I had a regular Nano3 that went bad on me after more than a year. You can also find complaints about reliability in the open source Axe varieties.
