I received this in exchange for providing an unbiased review. I'll admit I'm a big fan of StarTech products but I do my absolute best to stay totally objective. Packaging is excellent. It's not overdone, not too minimal to protect the product in shipping. It's also not so overdone that you are left with extra boxes. Not germaine to this particular product but it's part of the experience. Unboxing takes seconds, literally. It couldn't be easier to simpler. The design is so intuitive the most difficult part of the process is finding the USB C adapter on your computer or finding the right chords to hook into your monitor. I use a HDTV as my main monitor along with three other ones, but I had an older flatscreen in one of the rooms that I try to use. Running through each adapter port, the resolution was as good as any other connector or bridge. The only problem I had was with some display drivers for one of the monitors that needed to be installed before it worked. But this was b/c of the operating system, nothing related to this hub. Just figured I'd mention it. The main reason I am such a big fan of StarTech products is the design and build of the products. If you are looking to pay a little more to get a lot more quality, you'll always get the quality with them. This is no exception. It's firm, strong and can withstand wear and tear. The only even small issue design wise was that one of the Ports was a little too tight. MOst of the time the fit is perfect, snug without being too snug. In any case, this one port got better with use and it only took about 5 insertions to make everything fine. All in all, this is so easy to use, takes no time to get up and running, has a cycle time of about 1 minute to be useful and it's just built really well.

I bought this to allow my HP ZBook G3, running Linux (Kubuntu 18.10), to drive three Samsung 1920x1200 DisplayPort monitors. The display multiplier worked perfectly out of the box. It allowed the ZBook to drive all three screens, plus the laptop's own 1920x1080 screen, making four in total, with no discernable performance impact and no glitches or problems. Linux detected the additional monitors automatically and the KDE desktop made it trivial to arrange them as desired, and to disable the laptops screen so that I could close the laptop and use only the other three. (Depending on your distro you may need to add your user to some groups in /etc/group.) All in all - an excellent product that does exactly what it claims, does it well, and does it with no fuss or problems. As with all StarTech kit the build quality looks pretty good. Well worth the money.
