It almost works. I can get one of my monitors to work and the USB works some of the time. The support for the product is absolutely worthless. It's supposed to come with an owner's manual but mine just came with some pictures describing the ports and the multi-language caution sheet. Don't bother trying to get help online from Belkin, all you can get from them is the same description you get from Best Buy. It's pretty bad when the manufacturer doesn't even have a copy of the user guide on their website.

Worked perfectly with two different monitors I have. If they added a couple of more USB plugs, it would have been perfect.

Thungerbold 3 works fine, but returned it because I needed a dock with a switch to make it easier to switch an external monitor between two computers.
Would have preferred more USB 2+ and HDMI ports
Thought it was a bit too pricey also.

Gets very hot and doesn’t work with my usb devices. If I plug in my dell soundbar, it cuts out every few seconds. If I plug in my mouse or keyboard, they cut out every few seconds as well. The only thing that works is the monitors but I occasionally (maybe once a month) lose connection to a monitor and have to unplug it and replug it back in a couple times to get it to come back up.

Hi, Pad79,
Try using another USB cables/devices to the USB port of the Belkin F4U098. Make sure to firmly plug the cables on the ports of the Belkin F4U098 as well as to your computer/devices and update us on how it goes so we can have you assisted with our Product Experts by sharing it through email at [email protected] with your contact info and the link of this review, for our reference.

The docking station I originally wanted was not in stock. This docking station if fine; the only con is the wire to hook-up to laptop is extremely short. It would have been nicer if the manufacturer considered this when designing.

Using a MacBook Pro and a dell monitor. The monitor does not support less than 31hz so the similar Apple unit doesn’t work with it (Apple unit only supports up to 30hz). Wish lush would include USB-C power pass-through (for charging the laptop) and an additional USB 3 port, but those aren’t deal-breakers in my situation. Would recommend.

Works as advertised but you get more value from the 4 port model
