I bought this to eliminate clutter and docking time on my macbook pro. it has 4 thunderbolt ports, but plugging them all in was a pain. I was able to use this to allow GigE connection, but more importantly, dual monitors. worked with the thunderbolt 3->2 adapter to allow me to use my dell U2713hm along with a Thunderbolt display from apple. I recently upgraded both monitors to Dell U2715H and was able to use the displayport and the USB-C/thunderbolt to run both monitors.
Everything you could possibly ask for in a docking station - 1) lots of ports; 2) no drivers required; 3) no problems.
Plugged this into my HP Spetre set-up and immediately had power distribution and DP support; I approved the ThunderBolt device and all connected USB devices / external hard drives were recognized.
I have been in the AV/IT Integration space for over 30 years.
This Thunderbolt 3 dock provides connectivity to two 4K Ultra HD monitors. I like the ability that this dock provides 85W of Power Delivery to charge the laptop, while also powering peripherals with its 180W power adapter. What is unique about this dock is that the dock provides direct access to SD memory cards with the onboard SD card slot, which can also be used for additional storage and backup.
What is Included: 1 - Docking Station 1 - Thunderbolt Cable 1 - Instruction Manual 1 - USB-C to Display Port Cable 2 - Power Cords 1 - Universal Power Adapter

This dock has saved my computer's life. I used to use all four of MBP's thunderbolt 3 ports including the headphone jack. Now I just come in to work and this dock magically does everything through one cable flawlessly. It charges my computer, phone, reads my SD cards, runs my second monitor (4k), speakers, ethernet, printer, and time machine backup. It could do more, but I ran out of peripherals. This dock is seriously amazing. Everyone who comes into my office can't believe how much goes through the single cable to my laptop. Highly recommend!
