Worked really well. Would recommend. I bought this item to use multiple screens and i even had more slots to use with usb and usbc

Docking station makes connecting another monitor, mouse etc. easier with only one connection to my laptop instead of connecting each item. Also, sitting the back of the laptop on the station not only keeps it out of the way but also slangs the keyboard toward me for easier access.

I have the dock connected to a Thinkpad T470s running Ubuntu 18.04. There are three video outs: HDMI/DISPLAY Port, HDMI, and VGA. The first port works without drivers. However, the remaining ports do require drivers, but there peers are not able to use DisplayLink drivers. So on Ubuntu, I had to connect my old docking station to this dock in order to power my second monitor. Because only one of the two monitors is running DisplayLink, my CPU usage is far less than having both monitors using DisplayLink. Using my old dock also extended the total number of ports available. I am also able to hook the dock up to my Samsung Galaxy S20 and use DeX. Some of the peripherals are simply not supported, but I get one monitor, keyboard and mouse.

Many ports and many uses. Does what it needs. Solid!

Easy setup! They even thought of internal cord storage. Plenty of HDMI, PCHDMI, USB connections. Check item description to see if this meets your requirements. Installation is straight forward and packaged well for shipping.

It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but it works for what I need. I dock my laptop to two older 29" ACER monitors. Neither are capable of Hdmi. They only support DVI or VGA. However, I'm successfully using 2 HDMI to DVI cables to connect to my older monitors. I rated it low only because I found that the Micro SD card slot was broken when I first tried to use it. They want me to disconnect my whole setup and drive it to Geed Squad so they can troubleshoot the issue. It's an hour drive, so I think I'll just keep what I have!

While it can be called a docking station, it is not well designed and does not have any way to secure it to a post, desk, or other surface that would enable you to stabilize it and get full advantage of the many plug-in sites. Also, I think it would be better if there was an upgrade to Avid Power so that you could be sure that you could adequately support all of the docks and the docking places that it has.

We are using this on an HP laptop and it was easy to configure. You need to go get the driver, do not rely on Microsoft OS. Other than that it has worked for us. Also, buy from Microcenter since Best Buy has decided to not support small businesses that are resellers. I guess it is ok for them to make money, just not us.

Works perfectly, the only downside is that whenever I connect the power outlet that is partnered with this my monitors all go black and it has some type of reboot and my windows all go to my laptop and I have to go and reposition them to each monitor. This happens when I plug or unplug the power to the back where it has the USB C power in. It shouldn't do this if all I am doing is introducing power to charge my laptop, I am not giving power to the monitors or anything. This problem should be fixed The quality of the material is good, has premium quality material but there are some plastic components that feel a little cheap. When opening the compartment to plug in the cable to the laptop it makes a dramatic snap that at first if it's your first time opening this, you will think you broke it, but you didn't. Hinge to open could be improved to something smoother. Value is great, for the number of outlets it has and how it performs is great. Haven't found one with this many outlets.

I've purchased multiple of these units to replace Microsoft's awful Surface Dock 2 for our Microsoft Surface Pro users as well as used it on many different HP laptops. I purchase this along with the j5create 108W charger to accomplish the pass-through power function for a full docking station solution. On some of the computers, it has been critical to have the driver installed to get full functionality, but with the driver installed we run one or two external monitors and a bunch of USB-A and USB-C devices off of this with no issues. The MS Surface Dock 2 constantly "forgets" how to configure multiple monitors and has to be plugged and unplugged constantly to get it back to working after re-docking or the computer going to sleep. With this j5create dock, we have none of those issues. I'm here today to buy another one for my home office so that the whole family can use the multiple monitor setup in our home office with their own laptops now that everyone has USB-C 3.0 devices. The aesthetics of the device are good enough, could be nicer looking and feels a little "cheap" but it works so well, I'm willing to overlook this. It's not ugly by any means and it actually looks good under some of the HP laptops with a similar color finish. The HP's have no issues sitting on top of the dock as intended. For the Surface computers, you can place the kickstand directly onto it which hides most of the device. With just the single USB cable connecting to the laptop USB-C port for both connection and charging, it's a breeze to come and go as needed. For anyone struggling with the Surface Dock 2 multiple monitor issues, this is a great solution for half the price. For everyone else just looking for a good docking station setup, get this and the j5create 108W USB-C Super Charger and you'll have a great docking station setup. Of course, make sure your computer supports charging from the same USB-C connection or you will be disappointed in my recommendation.

This is awesome. I now have two outside monitors hooked up to my laptop. Its pass through from my USB-C charger works amazingly well. I have been using it for a month with no problems

Works wonderfully i love it..handles 2 monitors wireless keyboard and other things as welll

I’ve been using this docking station for a few weeks now with my laptop and it’s never had a single issue. I love that it doesn’t take a lot of space either and I’ll be able to use it for more things if I need it in the future.

Work perfectly with my laptop and two screens, but it will be better if the kid includes the power troughs the dock station, so not need to use my laptop power cable.

I was looking to use this product with my Pixelbook laptop but it wasn't compatible, this is the only reason its not 5 stars. I'm sure it works great with other devices thou. I have another j5create docking station for my Sony laptop and its great. That's why I purchased this hoping it'd work well with my other laptop.

Great docking station. I have one for home and one for work. Connects to my 2 monitors and internet. Attach laptop if you use a laptop. It’s great has a couple usb to support everything need to plug it. Was simple to set up.

This has a decent number of ports, but two major drawbacks. 1. They don’t include the power cable. That will cost a lot more unless you have a compatible ac cord. 2. Very similar expensive as far as docking stations go.

I bought this to use with my laptop computer when I want to use a large screen. This was perfect for my purposes. It is sturdy, Attractive, slender and doesn’t take up much space and has all the right ports.

This sleek little dock station is a force to be reckoned with! Three extra monitors in addition to my laptop was what I needed. So much more to this work horse! Plus when I registered the product J5 Create sent me thank you gift link that I could choose from.

This docking station has allowed my laptop to utilize 3 additional monitors, additional USB resources and i cant even see it as it tucks behind my laptop. I would definitely recommend this product.
