I had been "docking" my computer using multiple cords: 2 monitors, hardlined internet, mouse, and keyboard. Not a huge inconvenience, but annoying to deal with everything I move my computer. Now, I just have one plug to use when moving my laptop away from my desk and back. Very convenient, and I haven't had any issues.

60w throughput

The power throughput is 60w. It still charged our 65w laptop and worked great, when it worked. At times it would sputter, dual screens would flash and ports would connect/disconnect... Switched to a 100w version of the same brand and haven't noticed any of the same issues.

Unfortunately, the USB-C power-in port provides pass-through charge and adds additional power to the other ports as well. We apologize for the inconveniences.

If coverting a work-from-home setup to a dual monitor setup, this is the way to go.
This has dual HDMI ports to allow for the 2-screen setup, and the USB-C dock is large enough to allow for connection to a USB-A, ethernet, and pass-through power.
For the price point, this absolutely delivered.

We're working from hone now and I needed the exact set up at home which includes having 2 monitors. With all the different ports nowadays, I needed something to support HDMI and type C. This worked excellent and I have extra space for other things to add to my laptopif needed. Well worth the money.

I tried and returned two other type-c docking stations before getting this one, and then promptly bought a second because it worked so well. It easily drove an external monitor, mouse, and numeric keypad. Had trouble adding a second external monitor until I plugged in a usb power cable, but then it worked great. I guess the second monitor just took too much power.

This is probably the best 2/3 hubs that J5 creates, in terms of inputs. For the price, you get basic connections, single external display, Ethernet, USB and of course power delivery via Type-C.
If you are trying to connect multiple display's i would recommend the Hyper Drive Ultimate Hub. No Drivers required for either product on the surface book 2.

Great for use with a slim computer. It adds all the connections and functionality back into the computer that is lost with the slim form. The dual HDMI ports make connecting multi-monitors easy. The only hiccup was installing the software without an optical drive. However, the download and install went quickly.

I was on the fence about this purchase. Turned out to be a really good purchase. The sleek portable design makes it easy to fit inside a laptop bag. Allows us to connect devices along with a RJ45 connection. I highly recommend for a USB-C connection.

Just what I needed for new Mac computer with old printer and monitor. Everything is working well with the mini docking station. So happy I have a more time before I must buy new printer/monitor. The docking station saved me some money. I truly recommend this excellent fix for a potential issue that could be costly.
