Lenovo ThinkPad Universal USB-C Dock-40AY0090

This docking station is exactly what I needed. The device was easy to setup, firmware update and install instructions were precise and easy to follow. The docking station provides ample power to fully charge the Lenovo X1 Carbon battery to 100%. The dock can support 3 monitors, USB ports for external HDs, keyboard, mouse, etc...

Gosh! I'm really pleased (so far) with this dock. Evidently my issue was with my other dock...a screen losing connection and reconnecting a second or two later. Really irritating! This dock has provided a stable connection (so far) and even the displays seem to be brighter! This dock came with a 90W power supply which would be adequate. My other dock had a 135W power supply which I used instead to provide a quicker charge to the laptop. Easy to set up and a smaller footprint on my desk. I'll post more if the dock begins acting up.

I bought another one of these. We have two now between two home offices in our house. If you have two monitors, make sure they're not both HDMI-only monitors. You'll either need two Display Port connections (there are two on the dock) or one HDMI and one Display Port. There are NOT two HDMI on this dock. This particular one shipped with a Lenovo charger, a proprietary power cord for the dock, and a USB-C cable to go from the dock to your computer. That single cord is capable of video, data, and power. It is not long, maybe 2ft. In my experience, it's hard to find longer ones of these from the dock to the computer because of some sort of display port over USB-C issue past 2-3ft. I could be totally wrong, but I've run into this on Dell and now this Lenovo dock. The cable that ships with it works great though. Would order again. Can't think of anything we need that this dock doesn't have on it.

I bought this from Portable Guy. I spent weeks trying to figure out what I was doing wrong, but the USB ports were not recognized by my laptop. I installed Lenovo's Vantage app, which was supposed to help me troubleshoot things. When that failed, I read every support guide on the Lenovo support website. I even delved into the forums and customer solutions. Finally, I resorted to AI and just kept asking the questions over and over again until finally the AI told me that the dock was defective. As far as Lenovo is concerned, my laptop is fine and working as expected. When I called tech support and relayed all the troubleshooting steps I had gone through, they did not subject me to basic troubleshooting, but rather got right to the issue. They looked up the serial number of my dock and found two things. First, that I was not the first person to own it. Second, there were only 3 months left on the warranty. My best guess is that Portable Guy sold it to someone else, who returned it because it wasn't working. Instead of returning it to Lenovo, they turned around and sold it to me. Why am I posting this as a product review instead of reviewing Portable Guy? Because there is no way to contact Portable Guy and no way to rectify this problem since Portable Guy hides behind Amazon to settle issues, and Amazon gives you no way of reporting this issue outside of the return window (and the only reason I missed the return window is because I did my due diligence to resolve the problem myself and with Lenovo first). In fairness, Lenovo was responsive and sent me a replacement, but they won't extend the warranty beyond the three months that are left on it now, so let's hope the new one doesn't fail.

I've used Lenovo products for years and this is a great docking station with plenty of connections and options to attach your peripherals. I ding it one star because occasionally when the laptop is running but the screen/display is asleep, it will not wake up the monitors attached to the dock. It is easy to fix by unplugging and plugging in the USB-C connector, but it should wake up the screens. The laptop always wakes up, but the attached displays to the dock don't always wake up.

This docking station really works cool. It runs two extra monitors and only requires 1 cable going to my laptop. Amazingly effective and simplifies my routine , as I travel a lot. I just plop my laptop on my home desk and voila! Instant functional business. It has several usb charge ports and c ports and a wake button that is easy to reach and press. Why didn't I find this sooner!..... ? It also allows me to keep the travel peripherals in my travel bag permanently from now on. I literally pack my office after calling the uber, by throwing my computer in the bag and tossing some few other things in as well. I will get another one as soon as I go to my other house again this summer.

Works perfectly for my home office setup. I have a company-provided Lenovo ThinkPad and this makes docking at home simple. It has multiple monitor setups, although only one HDMMI port - need converters for the other video ports. It only has one USB-C input port, but I used a couple of USB-A to USB-C converters for a few peripherals. The USB-C cable it comes with for the PC is just long enough and soft/flexible so it's easy to plug in. It's pricey, but I wanted a Lenovo-branded device and some of the generic ones are more port extenders and I'm not a fan of the ones that have ports on all sides.

In general I have preferred desktops to laptops. For my recent office PC refresh, though, I opted for a laptop since it had the best performance from the options available to me. However, I didn't relish the prospect of plugging in, and removing, cables whenever I wanted to take the laptop home. Enter this dock - it is smaller than a paperback novel - about the size of two packs of playing cards - and is almost a magical device. I can plug in two monitors, an Ethernet cable, a dongle for a wireless keyboard and mouse, an external drive, and a printer, with a port left over. And the brilliant part is that there is only a single connection to my laptop. The data for all these devices, and the power for the laptop, is fed through just one USB cable! What's not to love about that setup? And I can even keep the laptop closed if I want to just work with the two external monitors...

Theses are the stock models my workplace purchases. So I was pleasantly surprised at its capabilities with other laptops. I bought one for my home office setup that it works with intel PCs as a Thunderbolt dock, with AMD PCs as a USB4 / USB 4 dock. And bonus it works with an Apple Silicon M1 Macbook Air. Theres a good selection of ports too. Along with a single HDMI 2.0 port and two DisplayPort 1.4 ports. Highly recommend for the quality of the product.

Fast delivery and quality is better than expected. The latest firmware is applied without issue. All ports work as normal.

good product
