5.0 out of 5 stars The one that worked for me
Reviewed in Canada on August 19, 2023
Verified Purchase
I tried 4 different docking stations that would allow my partner and I (she using a 5-year-old Windows laptop and me using a 13-year-old macOS one) the swap in and out of each other's workstations as needed. All the rest made assumptions that didn't suit our older hardware, such as having a USB-C port for power.

My advice is not necessarily to buy this docking station (although I like it a lot); it's to read the specifications very, very carefully before you buy any docking station. But this one is good, it suits us well, and it performs better than more expensive options.

5.0 out of 5 stars It works like you expect it to, and that says a lot
Reviewed in Canada on August 3, 2018

I've had "universal" docking stations like this before, but they always had frustrating quirks. Video driver issues. A flaky audio jack that made everything crackle. It seemed wrong to need the docking station specific to my laptop, for 3x the price. After all, we're talking about gadgets that might add up to half the price separately - a USB hub, a headphone/speaker switch, and a couple of video adapters - the markup is for the convenience of putting these things in one box.

On Prime Day I figured it was time to try again, and took a chance on AmazonBasics. And, it works. As transparently as if I'd bought all these adapters separately, with the convenience of one box. How they did it, I don't care and neither should you. Though it does seem a feat, considering it's probably made in the same factory as the junk the competition churns out. Until there are new adapters to worry about, this problem is solved.

My laptop is a Surface Pro (v4, the latest as of Summer 2018) running Windows 10.

So far so good! I've had this for a few months and it is still working great, the only suggestion I would make is to make it easier to find and download the installation software instead of providing a CD as most people don't even have a way to read CDs anymore.

Even Dell computers work on this well. We had problems with them connecting to VGA projectors. But they work fine now on this device. They are a bit tippy though. Be nice if the were wider and not as tall or had rubber feet on one side so the could lie down. This is a small problem though. Overall, the product is great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sometimes USB connection doesn't work
Reviewed in Canada on September 24, 2019
Verified Purchase
I frequently leave this plugged into my laptop, and sometimes when I bring my laptop out of sleep mode the USB connection will not be working, and my laptop will say "USB device not recognized", and I have to unplug/replug the power cord to the docking station to make it work again.

I doubt this is a driver issue because I downloaded the driver that Amazon Product Support instructed me to (I don't have a CD drive in my computer so had to ask them).

For example, the USB connection will be fine, then I might close and reopen my laptop and the connection will be faulty. It's kind of annoying to reset it every time.

However, when the connection is working it functions just fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Out of the Box, Read Instructions, Installed, Worked Perfectly
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2019
Verified Purchase
I was in the process of upgrading my home office computer system, which had an AMD M/P laptop, two USB hubs and thousands of miles of cabling and wires. The system was really slow and the laptop spent more time updating itself than in actual service for my tasks and projects. I was really getting frustrated! I inherited a Lenovo notebook, with a flooded key- board and was urged to replace the laptop with the Lenovo unit. So I repaired the notebook, purchased updated software, and the Amazon Basics Docking Station. The unit arrived in excellent condition and I then installed the new software into the Lenovo, including the driver package. I then reconfigured the entire system and literally cleaned my desktop of all the excess wiring and cables and made a really neat appearing system. I was apprehensive when I first started up the system, but the equipment booted up, all the peripherals connected and the docking station brought the video (HDMI) came right up in brilliant focus and color. The display (a 24-inch Seiko TV) never looked better, I can see all the details with no hazing, fuzz or any other distortion.
On the hardware side, I had docking stations made by other manufacturers in the past, but gave up on them. They were either slow, like a lumbering dinosaur, or so lightweight that they kept tipping whenever I moved anything around. The Amazon Basic unit has a hefty feel to it and when I placed it, it stayed put. The appearance is total quality as well, with everything well marked, even to the type of USB connection nomenclature (USB2 or USB3) The power supply is rated at a 2.5-amp capacity, more than enough for all the stuff I have. The only fly in the ointment is the base, it slipped out several times before I adjusted the slip tabs, then the base clicked in and stayed mounted after that.
I also have a single USB2 hub unit and an USB3 hub connected to the dock. The software self installed and all I did is follow the screen instructions, that's it.
I highly recommend the Amazon Basic Docking station, it is well worth the price and a real bargain to boot. As to long term operation, if I have a complaint, I'll let you know.

Excelente producto para conectar 2 monitores (adicional a tu lap) y demás accesorios de tu lugar de trabajo (mouse, teclado, discos externos e internet). Muy sencillo solo basta instalar los drivers desde la página de internet de displayLink y lo demás es desde Configuraciones/Sistema en Windows. La base es de metal y pesada por lo que nunca va a caer. Para uso regular es perfecto, solo cuidado con la resolución que busques en tus monitores porque hay límite.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hace su trabajo, pero falla con 2 monitores
Reviewed in Mexico on August 26, 2023
Verified Purchase
El dispositivo hace su trabajo. La tecnología DisplayLink es genial porque permite enviar vídeo a través de USB 3.0 (o puertos USB-C que no soportan 'Alt-Mode'). Sin embargo, la realidad es que este modelo presenta interrupciones de manera aleatoria cuando se le conectan los 2 monitores que dice soportar. Es una limitación de diseño porque me ocurrió lo mismo con otro docking que usa la misma placa y tiene las mismas conexiones, de otra marca. La única forma como logré conectarle 2 monitores SIN interrupciones fue utilizando otra tarjeta de vídeo USB a DVI (que ya tenía), colgada a uno de los 2 puertos USB 3 que ofrece este dispositivo. Así, mi monitor principal va a la salida DVI de este docking y el secundario a la tarjeta de vídeo externa, que se conecta al docking por USB 3.
