Best quality expected.

For $110 I expect this docking station to work perfectly. After using the docking station for about a week, my computer now says the USB device is not recognized. I've tried to see if all drivers are installed and all, no idea why it keeps saying USB device not recognized. It would also be nice if the USB-C cable was a foot or two longer.

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • I really don't like it, everything is fine

Can't get the second monitor to work

No matter what I try, I can't get the second monitor to work. Only one DP connection can work. And yes, I made a DP and HDMI2 connection as described in the book. It's also a little unsatisfying to see that there's no company on the box, website, or phone number to call to troubleshoot the issue. returned

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • I won't say anything

This hub failed after 1.5 months

On the first day of setup I didn't immediately understand that the DP and HDMI1 ports cannot be used at the same time. This means that you cannot connect 4 monitors at the same time. Only 2 of these 4 ports can be used at the same time. After I figured that out, the hub worked as expected for about 1.5 months. For 4 days two monitors connected to HDMI2 and DP don't get any signal when I turn on my laptop. I have to unplug both, plug one back in, and then wait a while before plugging the otherโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Possibility of replacement

Junk: Docking stations

Like many of these unknown brands, this is junk that started to fail within 6 weeks of purchase. The whole point of these docking stations is that you can plug and unplug your laptop. . Well, if it stops powering your laptop after about 30 days, it becomes junk! Get a more reliable brand instead!

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • Nothing here

Great universal dock

I can use it with my work PC and my personal MacBook at home and it's amazing. There's a dedicated PD port that you need, and dual HDMI seems like universal, but somehow it's not. I've found that creating a dual screen on my PC isn't a problem, but for my Mac, due to Apple characteristics, I have to disable one of the HDMI ports and use an adapter. We recommend!

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • expensive

Not for two extended monitors

I needed two extended monitors and this product claimed it could do the job. What they meant (and forgot to tell you) is that it makes your laptop a monitor and the other screens (ALL OF THEM, NOT SEPARATELY) an extended monitor. Other monitors mirror each other. (What?) I had to hook up another hub to make it work properly, but I didn't want that so I'm sending it back. There's also a refresh rate issue. The monitors continued to drop out on every connection, be it VGA, HDMI or DP. NOT A GOODโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Almost never

Buying a well-made USB-C docking station/hub is very difficult.

I've spent many hours/days looking at millions of USB-C docks and hubs. I decided on two options. One that stands upright, the second that is placed under the laptop. Both were Tobenone products. To my dismay, both were sold out. Further research led me to this MagBac docking station, which was very similar to the second Tobenone. As soon as I received it, I noticed a few strange things: 1. There is no brand or model number on the box (see photo 1-3).2. Neither the company name nor the modelโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Some troubles
