This is a good dock

The first thing that struck me about this dock is its weight. It has a good weight which combined with the rubber feet keeps it perfectly on the desk. They've done a great job of centering all ports on the back of the dock, except for two USB-A ports, an audio jack (for headphones), and a USB-C port for connecting to a computer, which pertains to are the front. It plugged and play into my Dell Latitude 7400 and was able to power my computer with an 87W USB-C power adapter. I love that it has a variety of display connections (VGA, HDMI, and a Displayport) so I can set up two displays with one new monitor and one old. and a docking station (only about 12 inches). Also, in my opinion, if you don't include a DC power supply, you shouldn't even have a DC connector...it just makes the buying process more confusing for those who want to use one. Dock that does everything I expected.
