Works as expected.
So far so good. This solved my display issues from my laptop. Now I only have to plug in one cable and can get all three monitors to work.

Won't drive older DisplayPort 1.2 4k monitors
It's what I get for being on the bleeding edge at two different points in time. I have two Dell 2414Q 4K monitors that I can drive using DisplayPort 1.2 @ 60Hz. They are lovely monitors that I've had for 5(!) years now.I wanted to drive these monitors using a Surface Laptop 3 which a) does not have Thunderbolt 3 support but b) has some kind of strange USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 hack that in theory should let me drive two 4K monitors at 60Hz. But I think that's only for DisplayPort 1.4 monitors, which my ancient Dell monitors clearly aren't. I was hopeful that this thing could solve this for me, but it can't do that. Right now, it can only drive one of my DisplayPort 1.2 monitors and only at a paltry 30Hz refresh rate.I don't know how many other folks are in the same boat as me, trying to build a decent multi-monitor docking station for a Surface Laptop 3 - at work I have two 2560x1440 Dell monitors running just fine using the Surface Dock, but that dock won't drive two 4k monitors at 60Hz.I really don't want to buy / replace these monitors. All options are pretty crappy (read: expensive) here: replace my 2414Qs with a pair of DisplayPort 1.4 monitors or switch to a different dock/adapter and use a Thunderbolt 3 equipped laptop instead.I tried to connect my 2017 13" Macbook Pro (which has Thunderbolt 3 support) to this, and it can't drive the monitors *at all*. I was hoping for some solution that will work with both the MBP and the SL3. Wishful thinking in 2020.This is going back, hopefully this review helps someone else who might be trying to thread the needle on this problem.Review is 5 star because I think this thing actually does work for the intended scenario. But my copy is going back.

Works for dual 4K at 60Hz
This is a good solution if you want to connect two 4K monitors at 60Hz to a single USB C port - just make sure your laptop or desktop computer can actually drive that much through a single USB C port. (Look for USB-C 3.1 Gen2 or better / Thunderbolt 3 - or better.)I am using this with a 15” Surface Laptop 3 with an Intel i7 processor. It all works well.The only downside I found so far is that the unit fails when my laptop is coming out of sleep mode. Instead of cleanly resuming, its status LED flashes rapidly until I either hit its reset button or unplug/replug the USB C plug at my laptop.

Perfect, if you know what you're buying
Bought this directly from Cable Matters as Used - Like New. My assumption is that they have lots of returns from people that think it will work just because it is USB-C. You need a USB port that supports DisplayPort Multi Stream Transport (most likely a new graphics card or some tablets/phones). The one I received did not show any signs of use, so I can only assume someone plugged it into a Mac decided it was broken and sent it back. I've had 8t running on my Radeon 6900 XT and even with dongles and adapters it works perfectly. I've not hit any snags with refresh rates or resolutions yet, and have yet to try the pass through power delivery since it's being used on a desktop.TL;DR, if your card supports MST this is what you're looking for.

Will drive 3 displays, but audio over HDMI port crackles randomly
I have 3 monitors and got an MSI Creator 15 laptop that should be able to drive them through its USB C port. This hub does the graphical job just fine - I use all 3 ports and drive the 3 monitors at 1080 without issue (they are not 4k monitors)The problem I have is that on one of the monitors I use its headphone out jack for audio over HDMI. The hub HDMI port is used to connect to this monitor, and audio does come through - but when playing audio (music, video, games), a static or crackle will occur every few seconds.If I only use the two DP ports on the hub and run the HDMI monitor off the HDMI port on my laptop, the audio never crackles.Though I can get around this issue as described above, I got the hub to kind of streamline/minimize what is attached to the laptop to improve cable management. Posting this in case it helps anyone else running a similar (goofy) setup

Very Glitchy - Screen goes in and out
I bought this about a year and a half ago. It worked for awhile but then became very glitchy. I have a 3 monitor setup and 2 of the screens would go dark all of the time. I would have to unplug it and plug it back in all the time to get it to work. The screen size would change to a low resolution setting. Certain programs would load like Teams and would cause the screens to go black for 20 seconds. I bought a Plugable brand adapter and have had no issues.

It worked!
We were setting up 2 monitors to a computer and this device worked perfectly. It was delivered as expected.

Like all the other negative reviews
Worked flawlessly for about 6-8 months and then all of a sudden, began to flicker then disconnect and reconnect my single HP X27q. I would have expected something to last a lot longer for the price point. I'm writing a super late review just because I'm tired of having 60hz instead of 165hz by connecting to an older one. Will keep looking for another product based on some other reviews
