This little product has been the best. Small and stays out of the way. Able to connect multiple devices.
Good day Nikki, This adapter is a great way to add a lot of functionality without taking up a lot of space in your work area. This mini docking station will let you add more USB devices, Ethernet, and an additional display. I am happy to hear that you are enjoying the mini docking station. Thanks, j5create

I purchased the docking station to go with my HP Spectre laptop for the extra ports. It works great and it is compact and perfect for travel.
Compact and lightweight design for maximum portability

Does what I need it to do

Works for my HP Pavilion(which has limited to no ports) so I can use multiple screens while working at home. Currently has keyboard, mouse, and both screens (1-vga, 1-hdmi cord) plugged to this dock. Only real downside is the VGA doesn’t stay plugged in when jostled (due to the dock not having the screw holes).
We apologize for the inconvenience the VGA port may cause due to not having the screw holes for a more secure fit. We do have other VGA adapters with the screw holes available; if interested, our support information can be located on the casing and a specialist will be ready to help. Respectfully, j5create

Has VGA- good for college

One of the few docks that support ethernet and VGA which is good for college students. Ethernet: since everyone uses wifi at college, the ethernet is faster and more reliable. VGA: colleges always use outdated projectors in classrooms.
Unfortunately, does not have a USB-C connection to laptop, only standard USB connector and no USB to USB-C dongle.
USB 3.0 provides up to 5 Gbps transfer rates, which is 10x faster than USB 2.0

Bought this to extend my Microsoft Surface to a second display and add ports. The HDMI output work seamlessly and the additional ports were perfect. If you don't use too many devices you do not need to use the 5 volt adapter and plug this device in in order to use it. A great alternative to the Microsoft Surface dock at triple the price
JJRhea, We're glad to hear the JUD380 has worked well for your Microsoft Surface. If you have any technical issues with your device, please reach out to support and a rep will gladly assist. Cordially, j5create

Like the product. Able to and charge all my devices. The unit does run a little warm, so I never leave it plugged in overnight.
Hi, Not only will you get the extra USB-A ports you will get HDMI, VGA, and Ethernet ports as well. Glad to hear that you got the dock set up easily. It is not quite plug and play as it does require a driver, but some operating systems will automatically download the driver. Cheers, j5create

Great addition for a laptop without enough ports. I was worried it would slow down response times from the mouse/keyboard, but I haven't noticed any change in speed.

This is the second docking station I have purchased. The first one burn out after about a year and a half. It works very well to have multiple monitor just wish it would have two hdmi ports. There isn’t much drop off in resolution between the monitor connected to the hdmi and vga. Overall it’s a good buy for the price.
Good buy for the price is what we strive for, and we are glad to hear it from you, Jose. The JUD380 providing 2 video ports for more screens to work with make this a popular choice. For 2 HDMI ports, we recommend the JUA365; in the case where you have USB-C, then the JCD381 would be the better option. Feel free to contact support on the packaging with questions, concerns, warranty information and a specialist will be glad to assist. Thank you for the review, j5create

I got this as a mini dock for my MS Surface 6 Pro. Without using the optional USB power input it could drive my large screen monitor, but it wasn't very happy about it. :-)
I replaced it with an actual Surface Dock on my desk. Still in my EDC kit for all the other helpful ports!

There's nothing spectacular about this Docking Station. It does what it's supposed to do. It lacks features of other similarly priced docking stations, like audio jack and SD card reader. Getting it on sale helps. I like that it worked without downloading software or a driver.
Hello Ernie, Thank you for leaving your feedback on the j5create mini docking station. This model is a basic entry level device that is designed to be easy to setup and use. Thank you for choosing a j5create device. Have a great day, j5create

My wife's laptop only had wifi and one hdmi port andcnot enough usb ports. I needed to add two monitors, wired lan and more usb. This allowed for it. Recognized the devices right away. Be warned it gets very warm.

So far so good. I had several missteps as I tried to create a 2nd screen setting in my home office connected to my Surface Pro. I bought in my Surface Pro to Best Buy and the salesperson was able to solve with this mini docking station. Finally up and running!
