Customer Ratings & Reviews

I share this for the benefit of the few others like me that didn't realize that the ONLY way to connect the laptop to the docking station is through a USB-C port and that there is no adaptor that will work for this. Unfortunately, one of the two laptops that I needed to connect does not have USB-C. Otherwise, it is a great docking station. I was able to connect everything else to it! Regrettably, I have to exchange it for one that connects through a a regular USB port.

Want to Seth up multiple screen? This is the tool! Live this item!

This makes working on multiple screens a breeze and so much easier!

It works great with a windows based computer. I have had any issue with my MacBook but the support staff with the product have gave me some tips to try haven’t been able to try yet.

I had really high hopes for this docking station. It had all the plugs that I needed for my monitors and computer but it cannot handle any of it. I plugged everything in and set it up per the inbox instructions and it didn’t recognize the power cable and just completely drained my laptop trying to do its job.

This is exactly what I was looking for to connect both of my monitors to my laptop, duel monitoring. This docking station is pretty good.

This was good for what it had, but i ended up not needing it so I returned it. It was easy to use.

This is very useful and easy to use. Light and doesn't take to much space.

I haven't used it as much as i thought i would. But it worked well for the few months i needed it. I'm glad it's here in case i need it again.

This is truly plug and play. I was truly surprised at that aspect of it. Sleek and trim and easily tucked behind the monitor.

It has every port you could possibly need at the cost of portability. I returned it only because it’s too long to travel with. I would have preferred they stacks some ports on top of each other rather than all in one row. That would’ve made the device thicker, but that would have reduced the length and made it easier to fit in some smaller backpacks and desk.

I have had this product a few weeks and I really like it. I had trouble finding a docking station with everything I needed for a reasonable price. Now I can finally have the at home work station I have needed.

Very useful but slightly bigger/bulkier than expected.

this product is very practical and ergonomic absolutely love it

What a steal for the ports and the capacity of the docking station ports. Awesome deal on the price. My new works well with it.

Excellent function. Well worth the price, especially for remote work.

This docking station is good in terms of portability and ease of use. It was working well for one of my laptops but the other one required switching the HDMI cable to an alternate port every time. There is no power cord included as well. Not a show-stopper given the reasonable price though

Using on my Dell Inspiron Ryzen 5 At first I had issues to download drivers from their site but after that worked I have had no issues using this for the past several weeks. Using UCB connections to a CNC, programmer, printer etc and they stay connected day after day and no issues with the two HDMI screens I am running from the laptop which I just leave closed and sitting on a shelf.

I bought this for use with a Macbook Pro (M1 processor) towards the end of August 2022. My primary purpose was to have additional USB ports with an attached external monitor. When I initially installed the docking station, the attached monitor (tried both Display port cable and HDMI cable) wasn't recognized by the MAC. Spent some time trying to figure out what was going on, and finally found a support topic on J5's website. Had to install some additional drivers and enable an option for the monitor to be recognized. After installing the driver and changing some settings per the support topic on J5 site, I was finally, was able to get the monitor recognized and working. However, anytime I unplugged any of the other USB devices from the docking station, the monitor would no longer be recongized, and I had to go through the install process again. Fast forward another few days, and I began receiving an error message indicating the USB ports were no longer recognized at all while using the docking station unless I disconnect the monitor altogether. So, i could either use an external monitor, or I could use the USB ports of the docking station, but not both at the same time. I even purchased the additional power supply unit for the specific docking station hoping the added power would help, but that didn't change anything. Finally gave up and returned the item to BestBuy. Definitely do not recommend this particular brand of docking station.

I completed my home office and I needed a dock that would allow me to use my work laptop and personal laptop for my two monitors. I picked this item up while I was in-store. Firstly, it's a well made device. It feels sturdy and all the inputs secure the connecters well. I love all of the connections it offers. It does its job fine as a dock, but that really all I can say about. One negative is that I had to install drivers in order for it to work properly. I've never had to do that for any of the docks I've used in the past, so keep that in mind if you have a work laptop because your IT security policy may not allow to install the drivers. Another thing that I'll count as a potential negative was that when I used the two HDMI outputs to my monitors, I had some weird screen mirroring on the far-right side of my secondary monitor. Tried different HDMI cables and the problem persisted. I ended up buying a Display Port cable for the secondary monitor and had no problems ever since. Also, this dock supports 3 monitors via VGA, HDMI and Display Port. You kind of have to pick and choose which connections you want use. One of the HDMI ports is linked to DP so you can't do HDMI/HDMI/DP. A triple monitor setup will have to involve the VGA connector (VGA/HDMI/HDMI or VGA, HDMI, DP).
