I purchased this dock specifically because I have three detached monitors on my desk that I want to run while the lid of the laptop(s) are closed. (I have two laptops: a circa 2017 HP ZBook G3 with displayport built into the USB-C ports, and a brand new Elitebook 840 G8 for work). My screens are two 1080 HD monitors that are 5 or 6 years old, but use combinations of displayport and HDMI, and my main monitor is a 2010 era Apple Cinema Display 27" with mini-Displayport. With adapters, each of the monitors run fine at their native resolution, and without this dock, I can run any two of the monitors plus the built-in laptop screen (which is physically smaller and harder to read). The dock, however, has two full size Displayports and HDMI, and I hoped I could all three monitors to the dock and then the dock to the laptop with a single cable. My experience, however, is that while I can connect the three monitors this way, one of the monitors is always at the wrong resolution (and will not allow adjustment). If I take one of the monitors (HDMI is my choice) out of the dock and plug it directly into the laptop(s), then I get all three monitors working the way I want. So... I can get what I want, but not the way I wanted it. My configuration is such that I don't use the dock's other port -- I only care about the monitors. That's my reason for marking this down to 3 stars.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Power button on docking station is always illuminated making it difficult to know when it turns computers on or off. The on/off power button for laptops was determining factor in purchasing this docking station.

Nice smaller profile than previous model. Being newer I needed an HDMI end for my monitor. Problem solved with additional purchase of a dongle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It will not power my laptop, my monitor will not work with it and it doesn't shutdown my laptop.
