||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Basic I/O's
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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 Docking Station
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

All the extra connection for your slim laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
