[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works flawless. I was trying to dock with a new LG curved Gamming monitor and tested three different docks (Dell, Microsoft and Logitech), for some reason all of them worked intermittent and some times just did not work at all. I decided to go and give the Thunderbolt 4 a try and it worked just immediately, plug and play. Highly recommended.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great docking station. Makes connections a breeze. Does have issues connecting to legion laptops due to a little bit of plastic on the power plug from the station to the laptop. Trim the small bit of plastic and it's 5 stars
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Slim profile and fits nicely for a 2 laptop 1 desktop setup. The cord to the laptop could be a bit longer, but functionally perfect!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just bought a new ThinkPad P15v Gen 3, and bought this dock to go with it, since it is listed as compatible in Lenovo website's literature. I hooked up my LG 4K monitor to it via HDMI and the monitor experiences frequent glitching in the form of screen tearing and image misalignment where portions of the screen are a pixel or two misaligned.
There is also a significant lag in any of my devices (keyboard, Wacom tablet) plugged into a USB hub that is plugged into the dock. I had to remove the USB hub and plug all of my USB devices and dongles into the dock directly, which now leaves me with no remaining USB ports. After multiple firmware updates for all devices and the dock, and multiple laptop restarts, the USB device lag is resolved but the monitor glitching remains.
I noticed that there is LESS monitor glitching when I unravel the dock cord and let it hang freely (I had it wrapped and tied to keep cord hazards out of the way). It still glitches, however. I previously had a different Lenovo laptop and dock which did not have this problem, using the same monitor and setup. When I try to submit a ticket to Lenovo Support, I am sent on and endless loop of chatbot "support", self-help articles, and a community board. Very frustrated and will try to RMA this dock since it is not functional as is. Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Thunderbolt 4 dock works great and powers my laptop without the need of the power adapter that the laptop came with.
Enjoy the convenience of consolidating connections

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a dock that would fulfill future requirements as I expand my Lenovo system. The ThinkPad Thunderbolt 2 Workstation Dock is powerful and full-featured. I am able to consolidate all of the connections from my ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 Laptop, four ThinkVision T27i-30 Monitors, and a USB Hub into the Dock's rear panel. All of the laptop's connections are free to use, which provides more convenience and versatility in my daily work. The dock is lightweight and small enough to carry with me when traveling.
