    This is a great buy if you need extra connectivity. This allows my laptop to have multiple devices connected and charging at the same time and place. I have a external hard drive, earbuds and overhead light to maximize my laptop use. All this on one outlet! Worth the price.

    I original purchased this docking station b/c all the connections are in the back of the unit and it had a long usb-c cable. But, I needed to install a driver to make it work. I am not able to install drivers on my work computer, so I had to return it.

    A laptop is great for when you need to work elsewhere, but laptops have limited ports. This converted my laptop into a full workstation at home, and still retains the ability to go mobile when needed.

    I was forced to buy one of these because the new macs don’t have any USB ports. It’s suppose to sit under the laptop but for my 13” Mac it doesn’t look right. Other than that it’s pretty great. It just takes up a lot of space if you don’t use it under your laptop though. Out of all the other options though, this was definitely one of the better ones that I saw. 3 USB ports and other ports as well. I wish these things were cheaper but what can you do I guess

      Good day,
      Thank you for your feedback on the triple display docking station. There are some tradeoffs, there are a lot of ports, but the docking station is big, as well as functionality versus price. As you know computers are being manufactured with fewer USB ports so hubs and docking stations are becoming a necessity. We appreciate you taking the time to write a review on the docking station.
      Thanks,

    Nice dicking station w plenty if USB ports that don’t power off for unknown reasons like my old one. Using with a Dell Inspirion and also switch a Lenovo Thinkpad. Works great with both. I can use 3 screens with this dock (laptop and 2 HDMI monitor connections). Well worth the money. Fast delivery by Best Buy - came in 2 days without paying extra for shipping. Definitely recommend!

      The unique design of the JCD543 having different capabilities makes it very attractive for the typical office worker, allowing you to not only have more ports, but to rest your laptop on top makes this next to none on the market.

    Does and doesn’t get the job done

    Doesn’t come with a power cable, so you’ll have to visit the products site for their cable or hit up amazon for one that provides ample juice. It does allow me to hook up two monitors with hdmi to give me 3 screens. Though it’s unstable and I occasionally have to plug/ unplug from laptop to get screens displaying. Some collaboration tools lose audio while plugged in. Power pass through is not great and get the warning that charging will be slow, not sure how power is allocated with so little plugged in. This was suppose to allow easy drop in for my wife or I and not require peripheral shuffling/power ply shuffling. Having to still plug in laptop power defeated that objective. Official drivers did not seem improve any of the described behaviors. So it works, just not as expected by the description. Likely another universal docking station out there that would do a better job. If you’re in a pinch and just need something in a hurry it may work for you to get by.

      Hi!

      I'm so sorry to hear about this! We actually do sell a powered version at Best Buy that comes with the cable, but I know how frustrating it can be to need to return like you did for the power cable which we do sell separately as well. Please contact my customer service team and we can help get you up and running without the connectivity issues. Our information is found on the back of all of our product boxes and on our website.

      Thanks,

    The only thing I 'regret' is that it doesn't have a optical audio out. This does require a specific driver download. Sometimes it doesn't work with both the monitors I have connected via HDMI. As in, the computer will go to sleep and one external monitor will display and the other won't. Other than that, I have a USB-c hub plugged in and the attached devices work fine. The analog audio works fine, I haven't tested the network, but I imagine it's okay.

      Doing what it should is what the docking station does best. If you are only getting one monitor to work at a time, there is troubleshooting that can be done and we would value the chance to resolve this. If interested; technical assistance can be obtained by contacting support on the casing and a specialist will be happy to help.

    I read many reviews complaining about this unit that I ALMOST didn't get it! But I am glad I did. This unit does everything that I have asked it to do. I am using the HDMI port for an external display and love the SD and micro SD card slots! Great bonus! The only complaint that I have is that the powered USB 3.1 port is not clearly labeled. As such, I cooked an external HD. Lost a few files that I wish I could get back, but, c'est la vie!

    Docking station works! Although I wasn’t sure if my hdmi to display port cord was working for not. But it might have been a bad cord. You have to install the driver before plugging it in. The only downside is that if your laptop vents are underneath towards the back the docking station will cover it. I have to balance my laptop on the docking station to have proper ventilation.

      All 13 ports are combined into one slim docking station, so you’ll have all the connections you need to stay productive. Thank you for your review. j5create

    Purchased a dell lap top and a dell docking station and come to find out the docking station was not compatible with the laptop. The dell docking station was 350.00 and went into Best Buy and visited their geek squad who help me find a compatible docking station at was only 99.00 dollars which not only saved me money but was much more slim and less bulky of a docking station.

    I was a little skeptical about buying this big docking station but i needed something that had many usb ports. Since i am a teacher. I have many different things connected at the same time so this docking port came in handy. The reason i am giving it 4 stars is because the first time i tried to connect it, it didn't work so i took it in so the geek squad could help me out. They got it to connect somehow it works great now.
