item works great - hdmi is great too
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.because apple refuses to put ports on their macbooks, this docking station is definitely needed. i used to use the ones where you plug into the side but it looked awkward hanging off. having this dock station lets me rest the laptop on top and nobody seems to notice. all the ports work and the hdmi out to my tv works great

Posted .Providing more monitors to one's Mac is what the JCD543 does best, providing the user with additional ports for peripherals, SD card readers, Ethernet and more is a feature of this device on top of resting your laptop on top of it. We're excited to hear it is meeting your needs!
Appreciatively,

Docking Station
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very functional docking station. I can plug in most of my devices and because of its smart size, it is not really visible on my desk. All the slots are working and I am glad I choose it to make my ebook versatile but either connecting it to my monitor setup displays or using it alone.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Dock. I'm glad the all connections works great with your devices. Cheers!
Great idea with bad follow through on design
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The idea behind it is great, and it would normally be a great device. The problem is that many laptops, mine included, pull air in from the sides and blow it straight down. So after 30 minutes of using this device, it stopped working properly because the computer was overheating it. So if you put it BEHIND your laptop and don't use it as it was intended, to prop up your laptop, you will likely be very happy with it.

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
||Posted . 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.

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.

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.

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:

Future expansion
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this. Makes my life easier switching from my personal computer to my firm's laptop. There are so many slots. Could've gotten a smaller one, but I know my future self will appreciate the forethought of this one!

Great way to expand productivity!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
