j5create USB Mini Docking Station
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product works really well. I previously purchased the Targus, which after 3 months burned out on me, so it forced me to buy this one and i am glad that i did. The item is much slimmer then the competitors, which is easier to hide away. A++

Exactly what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to be able to expand to 2 extra screens with my laptop. This is exactly what I needed and it works great! It even has 2 USB ports and I plugged in an external hard drive to help save my documents, so I am not constantly plugging in and unplugging them each time.

Posted .Adding monitors, Ethernet and USB ports for gadgets can be difficult without the right adapter - the JCD381 will meet your needs in one. If needed; technical assistance can be obtained by contacting support on the packaging and a specialist will be ready to help.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this j5create. It’s way better than the traditional docking station. I use it to extend my laptop screen to dual monitors via the HDMI ports and for the other two USB ports, I use them for my mouse and keyboard. I’m very happy with this purchase!

Posted .Hello Billy,
It sounds like the JCD381 is working out well for your needs. It takes up a very small area on your desktop while still providing a lot of functionality. Thank you for choosing a j5create device.
Have a nice day,

Think twice before you buy this product
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit pricey for what it is especially when compared to other hubs. I hooked it up to two separate computers and they both didnt recognize this hub. I dont like that you have to download drivers for this or it will just not work at all. Other hubs you plug them in and they work instantly. So combined with the high price and problem of downloading drivers and not being recognized, i give it a 1 star

Posted .Proper functionality entails downloading and installing a driver on a Windows or Mac platform. We do have PnP devices. However, if your computer supports DisplayPort Mode over USB-C including Power Delivery there are adapters or docking stations available that do not require an installation of a driver. ** Feel free to contact j5create Technical Support if you require further assistance. Their information can be found on our website under the "Support" tab. Thank you.

Great docking station for Microsoft Go
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A Best Buy employee recommended this dock when I told him that I needed to connect an external monitor to my new Microsoft Go Suface tablet. I wish that it included a VGA connector for older monitor instead of 2 HDMI ports. I ended up ordering a new hdmi to vga conerter connector to make it work.

Posted .The USB-C Dual HDMI Mini Dock is powered on when it's connected to a computer with an available USB-C port. The USB-C power-in port provides pass-through charge. USB Power Delivery 2.0 or 3.0. features are required (USB 3.0 is recommended). Please refer to the manufacturer of your hardware for more information on your device.

Best purchase in a long time
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.202 has brought more working from home than we could ever imagine. I needed a solution to replicate multiple screens and power my laptop at home. I love that this powers through my USB C while providing multiple screen inputs and USB inputs.

Slid product
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Great replacement for other OEM (HP, Dell) that are in short supply. Only negative was it took about 30 minutes to sync everything up within my monitors. Might have taken me that long because of user error? Just assumed I could plug and go but had to download SW to my PC
