I bought this device in order to connect two external monitors to my MacBook, and indeed there are two ports for that purpose. However, the two monitors can only display the same screen, which is useless. I discovered this limitation only after searching online for a solution. I still use it to connect one monitor, and I have a second device (from Apple) to connect the second monitor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello, we are sorry to hear that this dock did not work for your needs. If the host device does not have MST (Multi-Stream transport) then it will only be able to mirror the display and not extend. Our customer support team would be happy to help you locate a dock that will work for your needs. They can be reached at 888-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST
I bought this a few months ago and it crapped out randomly. Drivers and cables are all good, I used this for work and lost hours trying to make this work again.

We are sorry to here that the DSU200TT appears to have stopped working. A customer support representative will be reaching out to you shortly to assist you. In the meantime, there are a few things that you can do that may help. If your laptop supports power pass-thru try plugging the power cable into the dock. We also highly recommend that maintenance be done on your laptop. Yes, keeping the operating system up to date is great but we suggest going to the support site for your laptop and checking for any drivers (BIOS, Graphics, Thunderbolt, etc) that may need to update. If there are please make sure to complete them. You may also call us at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST.
Six months old it worked flawlessly. Then both video outputs stopped working completely. Hope the warranty is honored.

Ron, thank you for reaching out to us. One of our customer support representatives has the emails you have sent to us and will be contacting you shortly. In the meantime can you please check that your operating system and your laptop (manufacturer-recommended and critical) updates are current and complete? Can you also check that you have the dock properly plugged into the UP port on the dock and your laptop? You may also contact us at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST.
Works with Windows 11 and Linux (Fedora). I needed it to work with both OS and it did not disappoint. 10/10 would recommend if you have a Linux or Windows laptop.
I bought the product just a month ago and would highly recommend this product; the setup was super simple. The product's price doesn't make you feel like you're breaking the bank for all the features you get.
Received the dock a few days ago. Plugged it in to my ThinkPad and two monitors and had it up and running within 5 minutes. Less expensive than many other docks.
