Mini Dock
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is small and portable easy for me to use at home and the office.
I would recommend this to a friend Does the job at an affordable price
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

It really works like it's supposed to work.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works most of the time, which is much better than last Ethernet Multi-Dock units I've tried!

Compact and productive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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

Absolute necessity
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with 3 monitors and still have room for add ons. Substitute for a docking station...... much cheaper.

Works fine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine, although it is very warm to the touch. I needed USB 3.0 ports. The HDMI ports were a bonus, allowed me to add a monitor.

Posted .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,

works great.. but
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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.

Nice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good. Everything seems to work out well as advertised. No issues, does get a little warm though.

Posted .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.

No issues
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Worked out of the box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Allowed me to add 3 monitors to my laptop - 2 through this device and one through the laptop HDMI. Works well. Runs very warm.

Posted .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,

Not Worth The Money I Paid For It
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really set up for a dual screen system, but it works fine for a single screen set up. I’d prefer more USB-C ports but this works fine.
