Works fine but could be defective
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Reasonable option for me to organise all the cables which otherwise used to plug into my laptop. Now i can extend screens to multiple monitors. The only drawback is that the piece i bought had the second hdmi port not working. My laptop failed to identufy monitor connected to the hdmi

Posted .Hello, if the HDMI next to the DP port requires a feature called "DisplayPort Alt. Mode" supported by your computer for video output. If you require further assistance; please contact the j5create Technical Support team and we will be glad to further assist you. Kindly, j5create.

||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really useful considering most ports are removed on newer model MacBooks.

Doesn't work for all laptop/screen configurations
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ultimately did not do what I wanted. My HP laptop struggled to communicate to my 2 Dell monitors through this docking station. I ultimately had to purchase an HP docking station, and everything worked great.

Posted .We're sorry to hear the Dock did not meet your expectation. Computers must support DP Alt Mode for video out. (DP or HDMI). The VGA and HDMI ports required an installation of a driver. ** Feel free to contact j5create Technical Support if you require further assistance. Sincerely, j5.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is costly. And then when you get it home you find out you need to purchase a charging adapter. The sales person should let customer know the need for charging adapter unstead oc customer finding out when they get 1-hour drive.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendA Must Buy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical at first with purchasing this docking station, but I'm so glad I did. I haven't had any issue and I've been able to plug in several different monitors into my laptop and use the different types of ports available. Definitely a plus!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked great…for exactly 5 days. Then it stopped. I tried connecting different cables, VGA, HDMI, and it still wouldn’t work. Maybe I just got the one bad product.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is lifesaver with ipad pro that only has 2 type c ports. Everyone should own one of these. Not overly expensive either which was a shock. I did have to call support when I first got it because there was an update from apple that required some changes to make this work. Support was awesome and knowledgable.

Not recommended for Mac with powerful monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not simple plug and play, needed to download firm/software in order for it to "work" with my 2018 Macbook Pro. Even then, it could not handle my G9 monitor when I plugged into it. My G9 monitor has a native resolution of 5120 x 1440, and with this it was stuck at max 3840 x 1080. Tried different cables, tried the "unhide" other resolutions trick, tried different ports, restart device, updates, etc. non of them worked. The metal, while seems ok, the construction of the whole thing seemed pretty cheap, flimsy, creaky. Did not feel like something worth more than $40.

Posted .Unfortunately, the Docking Station HDMI or DP does not support 5120 x 1440, only up to 3840 x 2160. However, the JCA141 will supports 5120 x 1440. Cordially, j5.

Posted .Hello Bill,
This docking station is designed for your laptop to sit on top of it. This will place your laptop keyboard at a slight angle for typing and lift it up for some added air flow underneath. Also don’t forget the fact that this docking station will allow you to add three additional monitors to you laptop plus several other useful ports. Thank you for your review.
Have a great day,

Needs driver to display on more than one display
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It advertised that you can connect it to three displays, but if you have a work laptop that is locked down you will not be able to download the driver required to use more than one display on it. If it is your personal laptop you can probably get it to work fine
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .Proper functionality entails downloading and installing a driver on Windows or Mac platform. In order to install the device driver software, it requires that you run the installer as an administrator or contact your system administrator, IT or help desk. Thank you.
