My new computer doesn’t have the old internet cable modem hook up from my cable box….this took care of that and has extra hook ups. I can use my old light up keyboard or the new one with my new computer because it has both hook ups available!! Very happy with this purchase!! It’s a life saver!! Definitely recommend!!

After purchasing and returning other docking stations that were not compatible I was so very pleased with j5create product. Literally just plug, download drivers and play. I use this to hook up 2 monitors with my HP laptop. The price was slightly over my budget but it was less expensive than HP dockings stations. Everything is working and I have not had any issues. The docking station gets a little hot after long hours of use but other than that I am pleased with my purchase.
Hi Sherry, thank you so much for your kind words and rating us with a 5-star. Generally, adapters emit some heat as a normal part of its operation but should never become too hot when handling. Have a great day! j5create.

Th ej5create USB Dual Home HDMI Mini Dock Station is compact and lightweight, making it extremely portable and user friendly. Simply plug and play, connect lap top to multiple screens, remote keypad and many other accessories. Even this 60+, not computer savvy individual had zero problems achieving connection goals.

Seems to work fine for now just feels a little brittle. You absolutely have to download a driver to get it to work properly. It's not plug and play but easy enough. Biggest complaint is it only outputs 55 to 60w if plugged in so you will receive a Windows warning if running a modern 65w Laptop saying power not compatible. But it still does charge and your computer will adjust to lower wattage. Overall...so so for 100 bucks. Great if it were 50.
Hello, thank you for your feedback. The USB Type A and Ethernet ports are PnP but the dual HDMI ports require drivers. The power-in port supports up to 60W.

I use this to plug in an external 4k monitor and wired keyboard into my laptop. As I use multiple laptops, I find it easier to plug and unplug the dock from one laptop to the other. Initially something was always not working; either the monitor or the keyboard but never both at the same time. I ended up having to reach out to support and exchanging it. Still took a few times, before it became seamless of plugging into one and then into the other and everything would work. I like that it is compact. I do wish the external plug was a little longer
Hi amandalr712, thank you for purchasing our Docking Station and letting us know your experience on the unit. If you ever need assistants, don't hesitant to reach out and we'll be happy to help troubleshoot our device with you. Respectfully, j5create.

I was able to hook this up easily to my work laptop and give myself a dual monitor setup and keyboard and mouse for when i can work from home. There are enough ports so I could also hook up a webcam for conference calls. Only real downside is it doesnt charge the laptop so I also have to use the laptop power cable, but the price makes that only a small nuisance.
Adding more monitors to one's set up is what we do best, with it's additional USB ports for mice, keyboards and more, we are glad to hear it is working out for you. Regards, j5create

Works well but instructions are a little confusing and don't totally match what you have to do to get both monitors to work
Hello, The JCD543 will add a lot of functionality to your laptop without taking up much space on your desk since it is designed for your laptop to rest on top of it. Glad to hear that you like it. Thanks, j5create

This docking station works really well. My wife and I are both forced to work from home and she needs multiple monitors for her position. This was a great buy and a good price.. my only concern is that is runs REALLY hot. I'm concerned that it will burn out sooner rather than later with repeated use.
Thank you for letting us know the mini dock is meeting your needs. As for the device running hot, we would recommend contacting support on the casing in order to discuss this with a specialist and they will either troubleshoot or offer a solution, thank you. Respectfully, j5create

It works most of the time, which is much better than last Ethernet Multi-Dock units I've tried!
Hi Bluff, thank you for writing us a review on our device. Adapters emit some heat as a normal part of its operation, especially when using the Ethernet port because it's consuming/manipulating current. Take care, j5create.

Bought this as my new work laptop uses TBolt3. My mistake was I did not know USB-C does not pass the power thru as TBolt3 cable at work does. Learned something new! No issue as I then use the power that came with the laptop directly. Other than that, new HDMI cable to replace the previous laptop video output and works great! Synched and performs flawless so far. This is the 2nd product I bought from J5Create, and both have been working admirably.
Hello Rick, Happy to hear that you got your external monitors set up with the docking station. The docking station will feel warmer because of its metal construction. Thank you for taking the time to post a review. Have a great day, j5create

These USB-C hubs are very expensive for what they are. If I didn’t absolutely need one to make my laptop more functional, I would never think of buying one of these. I fell in love with a laptop that didn’t have many ports, and paying lots of money for these cheap hubs will definitely change my mind about a future laptop that doesn’t have all the ports I will need.
Provides extra connectivity for your USB-C computer, featuring data transfer, power delivery and video displays. **Available USB-C port that supports USB Power Delivery 2.0 or 3.0. (USB 3.0 is recommended)
