great dock for every possible monitor setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a super-handy dock that allows all of our USB-c machines to connect to every monitor you could possibly have at home. And the stand like configuration really helps keep enough air running under the laptop to deal with heat issues. Nice product at a good price.

Easy setup

Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to use and setup, we have two setup as one is for the office and one for home. We are able to use them on our Mac pros and dell laptops as they both have thunderbolt adapters. Makes it nice and easy as one cable to the laptop gives us all Of the accessories including power.

USB Type-C j5create Docking Station
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for a remote office to connect 2 monitors and wireless keyboard & mouse. Really communicates well with each piece however the pass through power from the docking station to the laptop does not match what the specs say and what the laptop requires, even after requiring the laptop power supply being required to power the docking station.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .DisplayPort Alt mode for HDMI or DisplayPort resolution of 4K @ 30 Hz. The dock can connect to a USB-C port that doesn’t support Power Delivery but it will not pass power through the connected device

Great Home Office Addition
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed this to connect my HP Firefly Zbook 14 up to 2 monitors in my home office. Super portable, has a bunch of inputs and connections, and has been working great for me so far. Only complaint is that the connector cable is a little stiff but other than that this, this thing is perfect. I have also used it with my IPad Pro with no issues.

Great item!
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you need a good docking station for a “work at home”, or are building a gaming set-up using a laptop as your base, this is more than capable of getting the job done.

j5create - good product a little expensive
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Allows we to hook up 1G Ethernet and external monitor and has extra USB ports to use. Ethernet stopped working but after emailing support they recommend i just reinstall download software and everything is working now. Every now and then external screen flickers but not that often, so otherwise i would give 5 stars.

- Pros mentioned:Usb-cCons mentioned:Power supply
Need to download a driver and buy power supply
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Download the driver and the usb-c is great.use it with msft surface pro 7. Will not work on 6 or lower surface. What irks me is having to buy a separate power supply. Just add one and increase the price. Save us some time!!!

Posted .Hello,
We appreciate your feedback. The dock itself does not require the power supply. The optional power supply is to provide charging for your computer through the dock. We now do provide the docking station and power supply in a single package:

The older Surface models do not have USB C ports for the dock to plug into. However we do make a mini dock designed specifically for some older Surface models:

Nice Addition for Port Expansion
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for use with Lenovo Yoga 7i. Really like the number of ports and ease of use for adding variety of products. I would like it to have a 'lock' in function like some of my other PCs. Nevertheless glad I added this to my desk configuration.

Bought for three monitors, only works for two
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I bought this right at the start if quarantine, I normally work off of three monitors at the office and I was like great this will work for my three home monitors and I can just buy a USB-C to USB-B 3.0 for when I need to use my tower. When I went to use the monitor connections in the back, I was only able to use the VGA and HDMI which are right next to each other, I attempted to connect my third monitor to the other HDMI and my computer(s) (three different laptops) could not detect the monitor. I've tried multiple different converters to see how i could get those ports to work but alas I have not, I have resorted plugging the third monitor directly into my display port on my laptops. I may have to install the driver(s) from the website but unfortunately, due permissions set up on my laptop, I am not able to install outside drivers or software that's not approved by my company. Its a good product but in a world of cable minimization I have fallen short. I would only like 1 cable plugged into my laptop vs 2 but thats just me lol. I have used several of j5create cables and such for a bit so i have no complaints on quality or functionality just wish i could utilize that last port.

Posted .Hello Tim,
Thank you for leaving the detailed feedback on the triple display docking station. The HDMI or DP ports require that the USB-C port that you plug the dock into must have a feature called Display Port Alternate mode to work. You will have to check your computer’s specifications to determine if your ports have this feature. If your ports do have this feature I would recommend contacting our customer service team for further assistance. Their contact information is on the product packaging and on our website under the ‘Support’ drop down. I hope that we can help you figure this out.
Thank you,
j5create
Works well!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used with my Macbook Pro (touchbar model). It works well and has crystal clear HD displays when plugged into my HP Envy Monitors. Sound and Picture both work well. Ethernet is nice to have as well as more USB ports. Gets a little warm when you plug the macbook charger directly into the dock, so I just plug the dock and charger into my mac separately.
