Design Flaw would not Suggest
The VGA and HDMI port are side by side. It not possible to insert VGA and HDMI together since there is no space to insert the other cable because of width of the VGA cables. Would suggest to reconsider the design by placing vga to the left end

I bougth this adapter one year ago, and the only complaint I have is that HDMI and VGA outputs cannot be active at the same time.

One of my favourite StarTech products...
This dongle is just perfect and I'll definitely be buying some more. We've been modernizing our laptops at the company and they're all coming with USB-C Thunderbolt ports but missing all the good stuff like Ethernet, HDMI, VGA (we still run a lot of VGA projectors in the conference rooms). StarTech took the 4 most used and most missed ports and through them into a dongle for 1/4th the price of a docking station. The quality has been fantastic too. My only gripe would be that HMDI takes about 10-12 seconds to start working after plugging it in.

Not managed to make it work yet
I just brought this for a new Dell XPS 13 laptop (Windows 10). Nothing happens when plugged in the laptop USB C port. I have updated all the device drivers.

One adapter with all the basic connectors
This is a follow up for my previous review where I described the issue I experienced. I purchased 4 adapters to use them at the office on multiple MacBook Pro devices. I had a small issue with the network port that did not worked. Installing the driver solved my problem. I did not give it a perfect score because you need to install a driver in order to make everything work. If this was mentioned as a note in the technical details would have made the experience smoother. Other than that I am happy with this product. I recommend it.

Not the answer!
I was looking for a multiport adapter that all these connectors. However, the GigE port have never worked, and the HDMI video port quit working after two weeks of use. I'll be sending back soon.

Great Mutliport Adapter
This is a great USB-C Multiport Adapter for laptops. It is so small it will fit in your pocket yet it provides very high end VGA & HDMI graphic ports, USB 3.0 port and Gigabit Ethernet port. It is as simple as Plug and Play to use.

Nice adapter with good video options
This is a nice adapter to have for most ultra compact systems today with USB-c. This gives you HDMI and VGA which i found worked pretty well. The ethernet port is a nice option to have as I like the hard wired options whenever possible.
My only issue is when the system goes to sleep a few times it would not show back up until I disconnected the device and then plugged back in. Not much of an issue with the laptop...not sure if it would be to convenient if it was at the back of a desktop.
Overall a good adapter that works well.

Very useful
Easy to install with its plug and pray drivers. I had no issues installing it. Its constructed well. One negative thing is I wish the cable was significantly longer.

Ethernet port doesn't work
It has VGA, HDMI, USB, Ethernet port all in one which is a bargain for the price. Unfortunately, the Ethernet port never worked. My Mac OS is 10.13.6 and the AX88179 USB3.0 to Ethernet driver was installed successfully. However, it could not get DHCP address. I plugged my computer to my colleague's one (which is the same model but bought last year) and it could get DHCP address successfully. Seems to be a defect unit. Other than that, the VGA and the USB port worked nicely. So I am using WiFi instead of Ethernet now.

Dual display
The docking station only allows for either HDMI or VGA to be plugged in. This wasn't a true issue in my case, as I am just having the user plug the dock and the HDMI cable instead of just the dock... Still, buyer beware. Unless you plan on 'creating' your own hdmi/vga connectors, you're going to have a bad time.
Perfect if you're just trying to utilize one of the video ports.
