Overall works very well. I have noticed that, when my laptop is connected to the docking station, the internal laptop microphone will not be recognized. For some reason the docking station wants to control the audio, so when there is no mic plugged into the docking station, the computer will register that the mic is “unplugged” and the audio input won’t work. Maybe a software issue that should be addressed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this to use with my new laptop. It arrived before the laptop and after talking with a couple of computer nerds and reading the reviews I wasn't sure I would keep it. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and set up with the addition of a desktop monitor. This makes up for the lack of ports on the laptop allowing me to plug in what I need to plug in and making use of the HDMI port for my monitor without plugging and unplugging things Now I can keep the portable usb I have for use when traveling. For me it was worth the investment.
Have the product for over a week now. It does everything I need to do. Video, NIC, etc. The only thing I wish it did was charge my laptop. Found out the USB-C port on my laptop does not let it charge the main battery. Still glad I purchase the product.
