(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Works are expected, so far. Used it to boot off a USB drive, run dual monitors, and external keyboard and mouse. Going to make using the laptop for work so much easier.
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Easy and quick to set up. Runs two 4K monitors with no issues. Would recommend to anyone wanting a docking station good for the foreseeable future.
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Always hit and miss connecting Thunderbolt to X1 Carbon. We have at least 15 laptops using these. Sometimes it works flawlessly, sometimes you need to jump through hoops to get it to recognize multiple HDMI and USB ports. Frustrating thing is you can hook it up to another X1 (same model) and it works fine. There is no one fix.....just keep plugging and unplugging it and eventually it will work. Once you get it working it tends to behave afterwards. These things should be plug and play.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) It's wonderful for Thunderbolt 4 devices and works instantly. The only reason I would not give it 5 starts is that, given the price, I would have expected better backward and cross-brand compatibility. In other words, good luck trying to use a non-lenovo usb-c device with this (even with drivers). That said, that's not why I bought it, but it would be good to have all devices work seamlessly.
may not provide enough power to charge a T15 laptop
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Easy connectivity, and i love the fact that it also powers my laptop so that's one cable for a ton of functionality.
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) One of the most underrated docking stations you can get. Had all the ports you need and works great so far. Can't speak to the longevity as I've only had it for a few weeks now, but if it holds up, then this would be the best one for Lenovo laptops. Also quite a bit cheaper than similar ones from other companies.
