Docking stations

[Lee_Bo]

Has anyone used a docking station, the same as or something similar to, the one below?

I'd really like to get something like this for my office, mainly because I'm using dual monitors with my MBP.

Any issue with using something like this?

Don't know about that one but I have a vertical one that is really awesome and almost half the cost of that one from Dell. Fast shipping, has Apple-like quality, saves a ton of space on my desk, and I added some extra cable management that this one already provides. I have a late 2014 MB Pro, not one of the newer ones with USB-C.

Nice, thanks. Looking at the MBP one now, $149. Very interesting.

Currently using the Dell as we bought two for a couple of our laptop users and they decided not to use them, so I'm "testing" it. So far I do like it.

No problem. I really like my vertical dock especially since I have a horizontal dock for my work laptop whenever I work from home. You just can't use the vertical one if you have a case on the MacBook - it basically fits the MacBook exactly. Maybe a thin zagg or DBrand gadget skin but not the speck or whatever, thicker plastic cases.
