||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic idea! I love this docking station. It fits my HP Envy perfectly and is compact enough to not demand more space like side docking stations. I recommend this product for students and multi-external devices.

One plug to laptop simplifies portability
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this with my HP SPECTRE laptop and an external charger. By just plugging in one cable into a USB-C port, I can charge my laptop and greatly expand the number of ports to support external hard drives or other accessories. It greatly improves the portability of my laptop since one plug handles everything.

Posted .With the attached USB-C cable, the dock will power and charge power-hungry laptops, with up to 100W Power Delivery and power your connected peripherals when it’s used with a USB-C power adapter.

Had Some Challenges
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to connect by 2019 MacBook Pro to two external monitors, along with several peripherals. There are lots of ports and options, but this dock did not work well with my computer or MacOS. Pros: lots of USB ports, good power passthrough, and options for monitor connections (VGA, HDMI, and DP). Cons: 1. I had great difficulty after updating the OS to Catalina. J5Create was not prepared for the update, and took something close to two months to update their driver. Until then, only one external monitor would work. 2. In the last few months (maybe 6?) the monitors would lose connection with the computer for a split second, which would cause a freeze for a few seconds. Most of the time only one monitor would reconnect, while the other monitor was trying. Most of the time it would reconnect after 30 seconds or so. 3. I could never get the ethernet port to work. I plugged a cable directly from the router to the dock, but it would never sync up.

Posted .Hello,
Thank you for taking your time to share your feedback. Mac OS Catalina has some additional security features that need to be addressed when installing any third party driver software. Since Mac OS Catalina was release we have improved our process for installing the driver software. Regarding the issues that you are seeing with the Ethernet port and the screen flickering; I would recommend contacting j5create customer service for troubleshooting assistance. Our contact information can be found on our website under the ‘Support’ drop down. I hope that you will give us the opportunity to help get your docking station up and running.
Thank you,

- Pros mentioned:Ports
Has every port I need
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great all in one docking station. I also purchased the power adapter for it and now only have to disconnect a single USB cable to take my laptop with me instead of multiple cables. Triple monitor support works great. Just be aware that one HDMI port and the Display Port Port cannot be used at the same time.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Power supply
Love it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great docking station. My only complaint is that you have to buy thr power supply separately.

Posted .Greetings TL1K, thank you for liking our JCD543 product. There are 2 models, the JCD543P with power adapter and JCD543 without power adapter. You may also use your own power supply to charge your computer at the same time when using the docking station. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions and we'll gladly help you out. Best regards, j5create.

Great when ir works but some frustration
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using this with macbook pro. It took a long chat session with tech support. It’s great when it works but EVERYTIME I use the Mac not connected to the dock once I put it back on the dock it takes quite the process to get it to work on 2 monitors. It’s a 20-30 process to connect and get both monitors working It works flawlessly on my MSI laptop

Posted .Hello Kelly,
It is good to hear that our support team was able to assist you. Apple computers have additional security settings for third party peripherals that add some more steps to get them up and running. We appreciate your feedback on the device and your experience.
Have a good day,

Adequate solution to using 2 monitors with laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.IT is easy to use and I like the extra USB ports. However, I could never get the DP port to work, even though I had used the same DP cable to hook up to my laptop previously. So to use 2 monitors, I had to use the 2 HDMI ports. It is also quite long so it takes more room than I had wanted it to on my small desk.

Posted .Hello, try using another DP cable and make sure the input source on the monitor is correct. For further trouble shooting the Dock, contact information is available on our website and they'll be glad to assist you. Thank you.

Good device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Has a lot of ports. Still would have loved to have had one more USB 2.0 port.

Very nice addition to my desktop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this on sale which was good because I needed to buy some extra stuff to get this to work. Definitely need a power supply so plan on extra money for that. I also needed a USB extension cord so overall it was a bit of an investment but the card reader is great and I have two solid state drives hooked up to this. This saved me from having to revamp my desktop and/or get a new one. I could see this being even more useful for a laptop.

Posted .Hello,
Thank you for choosing the j5create triple display docking station. The docking station does not require an external power supply to function. This docking station is primarily designed to add functionality to laptops by adding up to 3 additional monitors plus many other ports. It is good to hear that you are getting use out of the dock.
Thanks,
j5create

Serves a purpose
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have multiple computers with different configurations, the USB C cable should be easier to transition from one side to the other. Also, where is the power supply? I had to use a spare phone charger to get this device to work
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .The USB-C Triple Display Docking Station does not come with a power supply. However, the JCD543P USB-C Triple Display Docking Station with 100W PD Adapter does come with one. The JUP2290C (100W Super Charger) or (JUP34108 108W PD USB-C Super Charger), will work towards the Dock.
