I got a plugable docking station 1 year ago and it was easy to setup and worked wonderful Then a year later it stopped working not to worry plugable has a two year warranty. I emailed them and the next day I got a replay asking me to run a test and send it to them I did I needed the docking station now so I ordered one from amazon got it the next day set it up and again it worked just fine I thought that plugable would send me another one i told Michael that I had a new one already and could he just send me a refund he said no problem Michael was my service rep and was fantastic at his job he said that the test showed a bad unit and that he would get me a refund it might take a couple of days to show on my credit card It was on my card the next day The docking station is fantastic and the customer service it better Read more

Works perfect. Easy to install, good price. This allows me to have multiple monitors even though my Laptop’s USB-C port doesn’t support DisplayPort nor Thunderbolt. This adapter uses DisplayLink technology to make it work. Fast and great resolution. No extra software required, it uses standard DisplayLink drivers from Microsoft. Read more

Great product. Made setting up dual monitors a breeze. Product is a great size and doesn't take up much space at all. Provides great quality resolution. Works well with my older laptop. Read more

Easy to setup! Small footprint, works as described so far. Read more

Great product and relatively easy to use. Meets my functionality needs to work with PCs and MacBooks, support for 2 HDMI monitors, and devices requiring USB ports. For PC it's easy. No addition software needed. For MacBooks, you need to download and install the appropriate DisplayLink driver for your version of MacOS. It's a free driver, and only takes a minute or 2 to install. Nice build. The description of this product said it does not supply power to charge host PC. So I can't take any stars away for that. I don't believe there are any docking stations that charge the host pc at this price point. Gotta spend close to double for that feature. Read more

Picture of this item is a little misleading as it shows two docks and I couldn't find where it stated only one.....I figured it was only one but was hoping to be suprised and find two.... There is only one, but its super easy to setup and works well. Plus it has a two year warranty that comes from the manufacturer, so that is nice. My last dock was by the same manufacturer and is almost 11 years old and just started to have the screen flash on and off. They make good docks that last. Read more

This is a late review on the Plugable USB 3.0/USB-C docking station. Have had this for about 4 years, originally connected to a Dell Insprion with the standard (old?) USB cable. Upgraded to a Dell Vostra 5620 about a year ago and thought I would need a new docking station since the new Dell had a USB-C port and not the older regular USB 3.0 port. Remembered the docking station came with an extra USB-C cable and was able to find it. Got connected and was able complete my station setup and move forward. This week I started to experience some problems with the display of my extended monitor - an LG - which was connected via the docking station via one of the HDMI ports. Intially it was acting funny where everytime I attempted to move the mouse onto the extended monitor, it would go blank on my and few seconds later, it would come back. It kept on doing that and I was unable to use the monitor. Had experienced similar issues previously but not to that extent. Decided to restart my computer, hoping that would clear up the issue. Well that didn't work and I could no longer access my extended monitor - kept saying it didn't have a connection. Did a quick Google search and didn't find any solutions but did see an issue where they had a HDMI port issue and were told to reach out to Plugable Support, which I did. They were quick to respond back and asked for the order # and had me load an app to generate a log file for them to review. In the meantime, since I needed to continue working, I plug the HDMI cable from the monitor directly to the computer. Once I got the email response from Support, I replugged the HDMI port back to the docking station and low and behold, the monitor was working. I still ran the debugging tool they recommended and sent them the file. About an hour later, they responded that the issue may be with the DisplayLink driver - it was "a little outdated". I followed there instructions for updating the driver and have not had an issue again. 5 stars for the docking station not previously causing any problems 5 stars for including an extra USB-C cable with the docking station 5 stars for Support working with me to solve the problem and being very responsive. Thanks Plugable! Will not hesitate purchasing your products in the future! Read more

Needed a hub for multiple peripherals as well as an ethernet connection for faster connection. Searched for a bunch of options from Anker, Belkin etc, but this product provided a great solution and price. Another consideration is I wanted it stand alone powered ... and not PD. This product met that requirement as well ... and you can connect to your laptop/device either through USB-C or A, both cables are provided. Very nice. Read more
