Review of the product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall really good. But if are activity using 2 items that are plugged into this with not enough power, it can make your computer loose charge and die even if it is plugged in

Perfect Docking station for our hybrid staff
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this docking station is great for our remote team. We ordered one to test and now I'm ready to purchase more. it is so easy and reliable. We have our remote team equipped with laptops. At home and at the office they have two monitors/keyboard mouse combos. The laptop rests perfectly on top of the docking station, saving desk space. It has several ports and perfect for the two monitors. It is a great docking station. I recommended. (as an IT pro)

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When trying to run two computers and an additional monitor this was a good fit. There are enough ports to add the external drive and mouse. My difficulty is with service. The USB ports will disconnect at no specific time. Then they will start working. I tried contacting service to speak with someone and got transferred twice, explaining both times the necessary information. Then I was connected with the remote access and disconnected. This had taken an hour and a half. When calling back it would be an additional hour+. This docking station is only a month old and I am pleased with what I can do with it.

Good dock for Windows and Mac OS
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this dock at work and at home and switch between a 15” MacBook Pro and a thinkPad X one carbon seventh generation and there’s a very smooth transition. Out of the box set up was easy I did not have to download any drivers for windows but did have to download drivers for 0SX. Are use the dark for two down monitors in the office and three Samsung TVs at home. Very happy with the product and amount of money spent. A little bit here goes a long way now.

Great addition
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took me a minute to get used to it. However, It is a great docking station to help with presentations and allows you to add flash drives to it. I wish there was a way to lock the MacBook into it.

Posted .When it comes to making a better connection and securing it to where it will not come loose, the JCD543 does allow the laptop to rest on top of it that way the loss of connection does not occur too often. I would recommend contacting the support team on the packaging for further guidance on other troubleshooting that may be done.
Thanks,

I would recommend this to a friend Dual Monitors for Mac
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had an issue with one of the HDMI ports on the original one after 48hrs. Returned it and all is well again. I haven’t figured out how to make it all work like a charm, but I can run my MacBook Pro and 2 additional monitors.

Not worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This docking station is not compatible with every computer (the 3 monitors). Unfortunately my computer is not compatible. However, the most frustrating thing is that there is no warning or notice that tells you that you need a particular feature in your computer for the docking station to work properly. I had to contact J5Create to find that out. I have not been able to set up my 3 monitors due to this. For the price, it is not worth it.

Not a good fit if you have a YOGA
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a Lenovo Yoga and use two monitors. I was told by j5create that this docking station was compatible and that it should be able to also charge my laptop. However, it does not charge it and causes my laptop to overheat. Maybe with another computer I would love it, but due to the inaccurate information I received it has not been a good experience for me. I do like how easy it is to plug in and use.

J5 Create Docking Station
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good concept. It doesn't work well on a MacBook Pro. My laptop fan was continuous and just not for me. Giving it to my son.

I would recommend this to a friendCheapest versatile usb-c hub on the market
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s probably the most versatile usb-c you can get for windows. It has enough legacy usb, an hdmi and vga port, and a convenient wire storage compartment with hooks to keep the main cord from popping out located on either side that you need to plug into your device. No issues with drivers, plug n play worked, but you should download the driver from their site if you have any problems, especially for video issues. is a little longer than I liked, I think it could have been made into a smaller boxier shape for portability but otherwise gets the job done and good price.

Posted .Hello Donald,
The triple display docking station adds a lot of connectivity to a laptop. Additional monitors and other peripherals turn a laptop in to a fleshed out workstation. Thanks for the review.

Difficult set up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found this docking station too difficult to set up. I returned it and purchased a hub specifically for the Mac mini, which was very easy to set up and takes up less space on my desk.

Posted .The USB-C Triple Display Docking Station is plug-and-play for most functions, but it also requires a driver installation on Windows and macOS systems for full multi-display support. We understand setup can sometimes feel tricky depending on your laptop and monitor configuration, and our support team would be happy to guide you through the process.
