Good value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall great little dock option. Occasionally it can get a little temperamental when you first connect it to get the hdmi to work but overall can’t complain for the price. Beats buying an actual $200+ docking station.

Posted .Hi Tjd558, the JCD383 was built with compactness and portability in mind, it is expected to observe that the aluminum shell of the adapter gets warmer, especially if the pass-through charging and/or all ports on the hub are utilized. If you have any concerns, please reach out to us and we'll be happy to help. Respectfully, j5create.

Just the product I was looking for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This USB adapter is perfect! I was worried about the connector being made out of a rubber material that could possibly still move around while connected to the laptop. Thankfully, this connector is made out of a nice plastic that ensures it won't fidget out of place!

ok not the one i wanted
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.due to covid best buy has decided its better to rip people off, the store will not allow any customers inside per the website the one that I wanted was in stock, gave the employee the sku number item and brand only to have the employee lie to my face and say this is all they have at 4x the price of the one I gave him the info for. There is no reason BB cant allow just a certain number of customer into the store to shop for whatever they need if they are so worried then only allow people in wearing masks and gloves.. needless to say all the other items I needed I walked into office depot and was able to look and pick out what I wanted
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .Hi!
I'm so sorry to hear that you had this experience. I know that Best Buy is doing what they can in order to protect their employees and sometimes that can cause frustration for the customers. Unfortunately it takes up to 72 hours for the website to update since that isn't done in the individual store so what the website shows can be very different than what is available in store. I'm certain the intention wasn't to rip you or anyone else off, they're working with the guidelines set by their company to keep them safe. These are unprecedented times and I do apologize for the inconvenience that it has caused you. If you need help with your device at all, my customer service team is available to assist you in getting up and running as well as any issues that might pop up. Our information can be found on the back of all of our product boxes and on our website.
Thanks,

Overheats After Only 30 Minutes
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used adapters that go directly into the side of my MacBook before and then I had purchased this one because it would plug-in to just one of the USB – C ports. it overheats after only having the computer on for about 30 minutes to where it’s hot to the touch. I have even unfortunately plugged it in to my original side adapter just to have the ethernet connected and it was still getting super hot. I would not recommend if you need to use this adapter for more than an hour a day for your MacBook.
