Satisfied for my use
I bought it at the same time as my MacBook pro m3 so that I could use the RJ45 and have access to the USB port. I'm happy with it, it's just what I needed!

To complement my new LENOVO laptop, a small self-powered station that's very practical, discreet and lightweight.
On paper it looks good. In practice, it's a different story.
After 1 year of daily use, I've encountered 2 major problems:
1) combined with a 65W USB-C charger, laptops see less than 65W, so they grumble and go into "limited performance". LDLC support says that this is normal, and that you need a power supply of more than 65W for a PC that expects 65W... except that this isn't indicated anywhere in the brochure or documentation.
2) the built-in Ethernet card crashes regularly: disconnects, then reconnects a few seconds later.
Practical, compact and rather elegant, with enough ports to extend those of a MacBook Air.
Well, I'm a bit disappointed with this USB hub.
I plugged my PC's power cable into this hub because it has a USBC port marked 100W max and my Lenovo PC needs at least 45W. But unfortunately, Lenovo advised me against continuing with this connection as it only receives 37W. So I plugged my power cable directly into my PC without using the hub.
Previously, with a Targus product (which I had to return), I didn't have this problem.
The hub is rated for a maximum USB-C power supply of 100W, as stated on the product label. But in reality this is not the case, I think it is limited to 65W or less.
The Dell laptop detects a low load.
For the rest, it works even if the USB-C power cable is too short.
