Good product and price
by S. Harden
Easy to use and has a lot of ports.
Well Built
by Michael Zane
The perfect amounts of ports for what I needed. Functions beautifully. BEWARE that the power supply portion says 130 watts but that is for Dell laptops only, for non Dell it max's out at 90 watts and a few features may or may not be available depending on your model. I have a Lenovo Intel Evo, 2 extra monitors and it works fine.
It's perfect.
by Luis Curet
My work and personal laptops are Dell. I keep the same setup of two additional monitors and works seemlessly by swapping the laptops when I need too. I recommend that if you have Dell and need a docking station call Dell CS and request advise on which is compatible with your system. I had problems with another brand.
Best all around Dell laptop dock
by Keith Crowthers
Switched to this as standard dock for work purchases. Dell has so many varying power supply power output requirements for their various laptop lines and sub models that it’s difficult to pick a standard dock that supports them all (or most of them). This one powers our Precision laptops, latitude with plus processors, and offers two display port and one HDMI port, and we have some people using all three at once. Check your laptop power requirements. Definitely supports up to 130w for Dell devices and 90w for non-Dell, and product documentation explains.
Just works
by Mark B
Chose this because I know it works well with various laptop brands, including Mac, and has a nice long USB-C lead which is something that also led me to purchase this over rival products.
It has met all expectations.
One dock to rule them all?
by Jason
We've been looking for a dock that will work with a Macbook M1 and a Windows laptop for a while. Tried a couple of Ankur USB-C hubs, but both had different compromises and occasional USB drop outs.
So far this dock seems to do everything with respect to supporting different devices with a single connection, at a reasonable price compared with other Thunderbolt/USB4 docks, and with very little compromise. It appears to be capable of delivering up to 90W of power to any USB-C device, while it is rated for up to 135W of power delivery when connected to a compatible Dell laptop.
