It just works-and it stores well
I bought this for tla family computer after owning one at work for over 2 years. It should be the only adapter they need for their home use! Just remember only one port may work at a time.

Cute USB-C adapter in nice form factor
If you’re working from home on your dining room table like I am, this adapter might come in handy. It was perfect for my needs, I plug in all my peripherals and monitor into this hub so I don’t have to plug everything into my laptop. If I need to take my laptop somewhere, I just unplug the USB-C cable. The design of this 6 in 1 adapter is round, it’s a nice looking form factor – it basically resembles a hockey puck. I like that the USB-C cable rewinds back into the adapter and tucks away neatly by simply twisting the bottom half. The adapter includes the following ports: 1. Ethernet 2. HDMI 3. DP (display port) 4. USB-C 5. USB-A 6. VGA After using this for a few days, here are my thoughts on the Dell 6 in 1 adapter. First off, it’s 2021, do we really still need a VGA adapter? That space could’ve been utilized for something else, an extra USB to charge your phone perhaps. With this adapter, it gives my laptop an ethernet port which it doesn’t have. The adapter does everything it promises; I can connect several devices to it and unplug 1 cable to disconnect it all. Here’s where the design doesn’t work so well, with a few devices plugged in, it looks like an octopus with a wire extending in every direction! Comparing this to another USB hub I happen to own, the cables line up better with a straight design. Not a deal breaker, just something to consider. One other feature I wished it had is “power delivery” via USB-C. This feature would charge your laptop if you plug in a USB-C power supply into this adapter and then plug it into your laptop. This adapter won’t do that. Overall, Dell has made a nice little USB-C adapter that will fulfill the needs for many. Easy to stow in your laptop bag, and nice to look at. A bit on the pricy side for what you get though.

Compact USB-C Dock With a Twist
The Dell 6-in-one USB-C hub is a near perfect mobile docking solution. With the shift to ever slimmer laptops, the number and types of ports available is shrinking, many offering only a couple of USB-C ports. This means connecting a laptop or chromebook to a presentation projector, external monitor, or even a tv requires an external adapter. While wireless is becoming ubiquitous, gigabit wired is still necessary sometimes. The Dell hub has a hidden USB-C cable to connect to the computer and supports up to 10Gb transfers. The cable tucks away for storage with a twist of the bottom. The clever design protects the cable when you throw it in your bag with the other accessories. At first I thought it was gimmicky, but I've lost a couple of hdmi adapters after the cable was yanked loose and have come to appreciate it. You can see the cable in the two pictures, along with a quarter for size reference. There are three types of video output connectors - dp, hdmi, and vga, although only one can be used at a time. There are two usb ports: one USB-C and one USB-A, which can be used simultaneously if your computer supports the usb current requirements. Finally, there is a gig Ethernet port, for which I'm truly grateful as spotty wifi has made presentations difficult. The video output has been excellent with both a UHD (4K) video monitor and a 1080p presentation projector. The support of video up to 4K was important going forward as that seems to be the new standard for desktop monitors and is starting to show up in projectors as well. One very cool thing, the hub was recognized and usable by both my Win10 and Chromebook laptops. Since the Dell hub was designed as a portable expander, it doesn't support a charging port (charger plugs into the hub and charges the connected laptop). It would have been a nice to have, but not really necessary for a portable hub. I don't really miss it, but it's one of those things to consider. Overall, I'm very pleased with the Dell Dock, it's been a high quality and sturdy addition to my laptop bag with very high grade support of 4k video. Working with a Chromebook as well as Windows has been a real plus and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a portable dock.
