Review of the j5create - USB Type-C Dock
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I know I was in trouble when I opened the package and the instructions had in bold print, "If you have a problem with this device call j5create technical support before returning it." I bought it to work with my job computer and two monitors. It also had to connect speakers and microphones so I can fully work from home. It didn't work out. It wasn't compatible with my computer so I returned it to Best Buy. The description should include its compatibility with different computers. It doesn't do well with my Dell Latitude 7470.

WHen it works, it works great
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have three monitors hooked up to a laptop with this docking station, two HDMI and one VGA. It works for a while and then two of the monitors freeze and I have to pull the USB connection and connect again. Sometimes 5 times a day. Called support who had me update windows and get the latest driver. Works better, but still drops one monitor a couple times a day or it shows the right 2 inches of the display on the left side of the monitor. Laptop is an i7 with a discrete graphics card, so that is not lacking.

Very nice but was disappointed in power
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was happy to find this but had multiple disappointments after I got it home. I discovered it has no power supply. So in addition to this you have to bring power to it. So I went back and bought a 100w power supply for an additional >$100. The power supply is great. But when I plugged the power supply into this docking station then ran power from the docking station to the laptop, the docking station was passing through only less than 50 watts and it would not operate the laptop. I returned the docking station unfortunately.

Works great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s useful and it recently saved me because there is an Ethernet option on it. The only thing that happens is that I still can’t figure out how to close my laptop platter start up so I can just use my monitors. I read in the reviews that this was possible and I haven’t figured it out yet. Another thing I notice is that once I try to log back in after it’s been hibernating over night the screens don’t turn on. I have to uncles lug it. Log in then plug it back into my laptop. I gave it 5 starts because I believe these are user errors.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this docking station however, not all of the ports can be used for monitors. I had to get many different cables to make them work.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so great! I purchased this replace an adapter that I was using to connect my macbook air to a monitor. This saved me a bunch of money since now I do not need to buy a new monitor or computer. Super easy connection. Much stronger connection than the smaller adaptors that tend to disconnect or slow the connection.
