Great dock for Mac. Needed to connect some older monitors for my wife’s schooling and this dock was an affordable rate, pretty easy to set up, and visually appealing. Meets her needs perfectly

Exactly what I needed. My daughter is using her MacBook for at home school this year and just to make sure there weren’t any disruptions I wanted her to connect via ethernet cord. MacBook doesn’t have an ethernet port but luckily I found this adapter. Works just as it should!!

Hello, Laptops are coming with fewer ports these days. Adding a docking station will give you the connections to turn a laptop in a full-fledged workstation. Happy to hear that the mini docking station is working well. Thank you, j5create

This was my third attempt at a HDMI splitter and it is by far the best. It not only works better than a more expensive ones I tried but also have a multiple USB connections.

Followed instructions in the box. The device doesn’t always recognize the HDMI, but always the other usb devices. If you disconnect and connect several times, it will eventually work. J5create online support provides feedback relatively quickly (within a few days), but they seem to try looking for problems elsewhere so i stopped answering them.
Also it seems that their product is not acting like a real docking station, as my recently purchased windows surface pro7 has lost battery life since i started to use j5create.
I will purchase another usb to hdmi adapter and use the j5create only when i need multiple usb connections in the same time.

Hi!
I'm so sorry to hear that this has happened! With the Surface Pro, we recommend using the OEM charger since the Surface will be able to pull the correct amount of power. There can be multiple reasons why the dock isn't working, my customer service team is trained to diagnose and troubleshoot every issue that can happen with our product. What may seem like a non-essential troubleshooting step can actually be critical to solving the problem that you're having. I recommend continuing the process with my team and we can get you up and running if you'll let us!
Thanks, j5create

This definitely does the job without any issues. I also really love how small it is and easy it is to hide away under your desk. The price also can’t be best compared to other options. Definitely would recommend to a friend.

After the required download of software, this unit does well. A MacBook has a single USB-C, this unit helps to multiply/multiplex other media and storage. Apple should "rethink" their accessories offerings, by offering a similar product or offering this in their stores as well.

j5create makes good and convenient sized products. There are smaller docks that just don't measure to today's needs. The bigger one fried my screen, not sure. We have purchased about 7 in our office and one went bad which is why I removed one star. Best Buy was awesome though and swapped it out for me without any grief.

I received great help getting this docking station and thought this was going to work great. However I have learned using this that docking stations can have limited features. Ultimately I wanted to connect my laptop back to two monitors, however this docking station, you cannot close your lap top. When using the snipping tool, it only works on one screen and only half of it at that. This docking station does do the minimal job, I just wish I knew more before purchasing it.
