    I bought this to connect my PC and MAC to external display and it works as expected. I had to download the latest drivers and on the Mac the driver got blocked from loading by security settings. Had to allow it to load from security setting and then worked. On few occasion it glitched and I had to disconnect and reconnect. Works well and is compact. Will heat up a bit during operation.

      JJVA, Thanks for taking the time to write a review on the JUD380 and how it is working for you! In regards to the heating, if the dock is burning/harming you, we recommend that you contact support and an agent will gladly diagnose, troubleshoot and if necessary offer an exchange under the manufacturer's warranty.

    We just got dual monitor in our study, but we have tree different users with three different laptops. This allows each of us to use both monitors, and keyboard and mouse, when we need it. The only issues is that you lose the monitors when the laptop hibernates. There's 2 solutions, though: 1) just unplug/re-plug when you wake up the laptop and your screens will come up or 2) there's a place for an A/C adapter to be plugged into that should keep it connected. For us, though, it hasn't been that serious.

      Hello, it sounds like the JUD380 may need some settings on the computer adjusted in order to keep the monitors on at all times, we recommend contacting the support team on the packaging for assistance and further troubleshooting.

    This docking station is very small yet very mighty. It allows you to add several devices including OLDER model flat screens. It is amazing enhancement to newer laptops which only have one USB port. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    Very cool device with all the ports needed. Would have rated higher, but issue using VGA monitor on Chromebook, but seems more of an issue with Chromebook than the docking station. Probably works perfectly with Windows laptop.

      MikeBinLA, We regret to inform you we are not compatible with Chrome OS. For Chromebook users, we may recommend plug and play models that require no software installation, but for such suggestions, we would need the make and model of the computer. If you wish to obtain assistance on devices compatible for you, please reach out to the support team printed on the casing and a rep will be more than happy to point you in the right direction.

      Hi,
      Thanks for picking up the JUD380 mini docking station. This is a great adapter for adding extra ports to a laptop. It will seem warmer that devices made with a plastic shell. The JUD380 has an aluminum case that will radiate more heat than plastic.
