Love it, convert your laptop to pc inputs! Its a must to have one!

I purchased my own items for my office, may sound foolish to some but i like what i like. When inrecueve my new company labtop i will install. Like the clean look.

Super Nice, easy to use and practical for all devices.

Tried several other docks to support multiple displays for home office without success. This one works perfectly so far! Satisfied!

Covid hit. I was stuck working from home. I had two monitors and not enough USB-C ports. This allowed me to connect two monitors, my speakers, my HD camera, my keyboard, and an SSD drives while charging it. There is even a port for Ethernet that I use to ensure my meetings are smooth. This is a must need for WFH setups.

It works well, functionally but it's awkward when placed under the Surface laptop. Additionally, it requires 2 separate connections, one for the mini USB and the regular power supply. I returned it and purchased the Microsoft hub; whilst it's more expensive, I get the power supply and all other connections in one port.

Bought this to utilize double monitors for work but it was a waste of money. Extremely disappointed in this docking station. Only one HDMI port works on a time.

The j5create is an Excellent docking station in all facets: video quality, speed, USB component charging, audio, network, etc. Every bit of what is needed to expand a laptop for desktop system use.

Every time I plug this device to Dell XPS 13 2020, I keep getting notification "USB Device Port Reset Failed" for every few seconds. The ports work fine but I always get this error message even when there is nothing plugged into the docking station. please someone help me how to fix this?

This is a nice device, but we bought it to go with a Samsung - Galaxy Book Pro 360 and when the laptop is placed on top it completely seals the (already minimal) vent on the bottom of the laptop!

I have a laptop and 3 monitors connected and it works Great!

One of the best docks I've used thus far. Easy to setup and very useful customization features. Great addition to my triple display work station and productivity.

Works great should have had a bigger monitor though

Love it works just as advertised! Definitely recommend

Paired with MacBook Air and a pair of new LG monitors produces unstable results. I’m working from home via VM Ware. Something in this combo is unhappy as am I. When removing the docking station I return to a stable view.

The cable broke just after half a year . Don’t recommend it.

Plug and play docking station - so far no technical problems, works as intended. Only one Con (see below). It does get warm, but I am charging my laptop with it so some warmth is expected (not hot, just warm). Not sure why a USB-C docking station would still ship with a VGA monitor port, but that has no functional impact in my setup so I can ignore it. Current setup: - Linux laptop connected & charging from docking station - Single 32" monitor on DP (2560x1440) - external USB keyboard and mouse - phone charging cord - wired gigabit ethernet Pros: Very nice to only have only one cable attached to my laptop. No issues with needing drivers or other software to install. I have not used this with Windows/MacOS - but I don't imagine there would be any problems with those since it works for me on Linux out of the box. I am able to get wired gigabit ethernet speeds through this docking station (tested with speedtest.net). I've had some docking stations in the past that have throttled the ethernet if monitors were connected using USB-C. This one handles everything through one cable just fine. I would recommend this if anyone needs a low profile docking station to plug and forget -- just keep in mind that you will need your own USB-C power supply (see below). Cons: The only negative thing I can think of is the lack of a power supply for this docking station. I took off a star for that since the box only mentioned "Need to use with the original factory AC adapter". That is too generic of a statement. Needless to say, there was no original factory AC adapter in the box, so I assume it means my laptop AC adapter? That didn't help since my laptop AC adapter is a barrel connector. I am currently powering this docking station using an older docking station that didn't have the video connectors I needed (lucky to have it around). I like to leave my laptop power supply in my laptop bag because I carry it around multiple times/week and I'd rather not have to unplug it each time.

My aging laptop came with very limited ports and did not support the functionality I needed via stand-a-long. This isn't a "traditional" docking station as you set your laptop on it. You have to plug it in on through the USB-C port, so really you don't need to set your device on the wedge device. Provides a variety of ports for most all of your plugin needs, including multi-monitor set up. Light weight and easy to transport. I believe most computers will force you to download the software for this item in order to use all features so make sure you look at the single instruction page if you're having initial set up/discovery issues.

I was very excited about getting my hands on this product, while it seems to work really, really well, except, I could not get it to power up my DVD drives. I'm not sure why, I didn't work with it enough to figure out why. One had a USB-C connection type cable, the other had a USB-3, and the last one was a standard USB 1 or 2. If I plugged either of them directly into my 15 inch Mac book pro (2018) laptop, it works fine, but not thru this J5Create Docking station. Other wise, it's works absolutely great, I have two big screen monitors hooked up to it, (1-43" and 1-32" monitor, they perform admirably everyday. I also love how it designed to fit perfectly underneath the back of my MacBook Pro laptop. if it were not for the cable plugged into the side of my laptop, You would not hardly know it is there.

I have been using this since 2021 with two monitors, wireless keyboard, and a SD card reader while keeping my windows laptop closed and charging through the USB-C connection. It works great for the most part, but throughout the day everything disconnects from it randomly and reconnects right away. Monitors go out but come back on within a few seconds. I have downloaded updated drivers for it and I'm still having issues. Would love to have a fix for this, or I may have to purchase a different dock.
