This is a great usb hub, it has basically everything you could want. Lots of USB ports, memory card reader, it even has display out on it. It is rather expensive so if you don’t need those things there are probably cheaper and better options for you. If you do need those things though this dongle is well worth it for a quality product.

With an aluminum casing adding USB's, HDMI, Ethernet and much more is great for setting up a nice workstation. Thank you for your review and have a great day.

Love the fact that it has a 1GB Ethernet port. Very easy to use and like the The Thunderbolt pass through port. I wished that it at least one more USB port and the cord was longer, say 1 foot total?

It does what I need it to. No problems with it. Solves the issue of MacBook Air only having a few ports.

I like this version better than the side car version with the 2 USB C ports that tends to bend and/or get the Macbook ports sloppy.

This worked great for copying my ssd video card to my new IMac M3. The extra ports will come in handy for my new setup. It seems warm to the touch but works great.

Amazing lil device. It does get quite hot when attached to my MacBook Pro. That would be the only thing I don’t like. As far as the variety of connections and small size, it is great! It is basically a full function dock for USB-c devices. Super portable and very attractive! Everything you need.

Super portable and attractive design for supporting various capabilities in one. We appreciate the input, Scubadad. In regards to the hot feel; rest assured this is normal due to electricity passing through. If the hub is harming you, please reach out to support printed on the casing and a specialist will be more than happy to exchange it under the manufacturer's two year warranty. Cordially, j5create

Needed some extra USB ports and an Ethernet port on a laptop. This work perfectly. Plugged into the USB-C port and had all the extra ports I needed without needed a power source. You can run power through this for you computer if you want. Ethernet and USB ports on the device all worked fine. Slim package and cheaper than others doing the same thing.

I bought a new Lenovo laptop that doesn’t have very many ports and I need to use an ethernet cable and have HDMI connectivity. This cute little thing was the perfect solution. The only thing that I am a little concerned about is that it gets very warm. It also scratches easily but I'm into functionality more so than aesthetics. Besides, the scratches aren't super noticeable.

We purchased this for the Microsoft Surface Studio laptop due to the lack of ports on the laptop itself and Microsoft's own official adapter. So far, it has been working well and provides much needed ports and a few extra. We have yet to use several ports at once, so we can't comment on that.

I purchased a new HP laptop from BEST BUY. The new laptop only has 2 USB ports, I need more USB ports! I talked to a GEEK SQUAD technician and he recommended purchasing the j5create which I did. I now have enough USB ports to run my mouse, printer, LG DVD WRITER, and my KOOTEK cooling stand.

Purchased to use with my Samsung Galaxy phone's DeX capabilities and it worked flawlessly. Has enough ports to plug in my Trackball, iMic, and keyboard.
It gets a tad bit hot and I'm not sure if that's normal or not - possibly a condition of charging my phone at the same time.

Fine for light duty; not great for docking duty

It works fine for light duty, e.g. a device to add ports to your computer. However, if you use many of the functions/ports simultaneously, it starts to get buggy. I had an HDMI monitor, ethernet, USB-C power cable, and a transmitter for a wireless keyboard and mouse plugged into it, and after a short time, maybe 30 minutes, the wireless transmitter stopped working. It gets quite hot when using ethernet and power pass-through, and my guess is that it overheated causing some of the USB ports to deactivate, but that's just a guess. Either way, if you are looking to use it more as a laptop docking station, I would save your money and get something else. This is not up to that type of use. If you are using it to add a couple of USB ports, occasional and short-term ethernet use, or occasional HDMI monitor use, it should probably work fine.

Adapters emit heat as a normal part of its operation. Please note that hotter operating temperatures can be expected, especially if the USB-C pass-through charging, and/or all ports on the hub are utilized. Ethernet function can heat up because it's consuming/manipulating current.
Wireless keyboard and mouse can stop working due to Radio Frequency (RF) interference from USB 3.0 devices, such as external hard drives and other USB 3.0 removable media. If possible, connect the USB wireless receiver 'dongle' to a USB 2.0 ports, or use a wired key board and mouse instead.

I needed a reliable adapter with a type C connector for a laptop with only one USB input, and it also had to have slots to attach an external monitor and an ethernet cable, and some slots for the earlier USB plugs. This has them all. It's expensive but worth it.
