Returned it immediately after getting it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They say it works with mac. Nope. They say it works with PC. Nope. It doesn’t have power, and it doesn’t have the right ports for modern monitors. There’s nowhere to plug a mouse or keyboard. It just straight up sucks. I cant believe I (and a few others) are the few to see these problems. Im trying to understand what this thing is supposed to do without any of those connections? I have to plug them all into my computer anyway.

Posted .Hi! I'm so sorry to hear you had issues with our docking station, you did not mention if you contacted our support, which I believe we would have been able to assist you with the setup of this product. I would like to respond to some of the information posted in this review...
This dock does work with Microsoft® Windows® 10/ 8.1/ 7 (32-bit or 64-bit) as well as macOS® 10.8 or later with a supported USB-C™ connection available.
While true you will need to use a VGA connection to achieve 3 external monitors, we do support modern display devices with HDMI and DisplayPort connections available, but the laptop connected will need to support USB-C™ DisplayPort™ Alt mode for the displays to function, along with a driver installation for full functionality.
We do feature 3 USB Type-A 3.1 ports to connect peripherals, like a mouse and keyboard.
The JCD543 is bus-powered (draws power from the connected laptop). The USB-C™ Power In port is optional but recommended if using high-powered devices, like external drives. We offer this docking station with (JCD543P) and without (JCD543) a power supply. If your laptop uses a Type-C connection for power, it can be plugged into this dock for power as well.
Thank you, j5create

Perfect!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for connecting my MacBook Pro to my two big monitors! Fairly easy to do too!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s useful and it recently saved me because there is an Ethernet option on it. The only thing that happens is that I still can’t figure out how to close my laptop platter start up so I can just use my monitors. I read in the reviews that this was possible and I haven’t figured it out yet. Another thing I notice is that once I try to log back in after it’s been hibernating over night the screens don’t turn on. I have to uncles lug it. Log in then plug it back into my laptop. I gave it 5 starts because I believe these are user errors.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t seem to be working the way it says it does. I’m hoping it’s me just having a hard time figuring it out but so far it’s not doing what I need it to do and will only connect to one display.

Posted .In order to connect 3 displays to the JCD543 Triple Display Docking Station the USB-C port on your laptop must support DisplayPort Alternate Mode and the driver from our website must be installed onto your computer. Our customer support team can assist you with setting up your docking station. To contact our customer support team please visit the j5create website then click on the "SUPPORT tab at the top right of the webpage. Thank you.
Works well. Driver download is annoying.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine. Wasn't crazy about having to download a driver before getting started. And having to do it on each computer I want to swap in. Size makes it a little awkward to position with my current desk arrangement.

Posted .Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, each computer would need the required driver for the device to function correctly. Kindly, j5create.

Just what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son needed to add a second monitor for his PC that only has USBC as an option. This allows the USBC to charge and send output for a second monitor. A little pricey but works as it should

Posted .Adding monitors to a computer short on capabilities can be frustrating; with the JCD543, you can now connect more displays, Ethernet, USB ports, SD card reading, charging and even rest your laptop on top while using, all in one.
Thanks,
