Perfect, in every way !
Excellent-quality product. Secure packaging, fast shipping, and great price. I did not expect this ‘refurbished’ product to be perfectly clean (new?) condition, but it was. Both keys were included. The power supply itself is worth 2x what I paid for this entire order. –> I highly recommend this supplier !

A great companion to my ThinkPad p51
This works really well: After a trip, I can just place my ThinkPad P51 workstation laptop on top of the docking station, snap it into place, and be back in business with my desk’s computing setup (mouse, speakers, external drive, and two monitors). It might be a bit pricey, but it was worth the investment.(Note: I understand that Lenovo’s newest workstation laptop, the P52, does not have the mechanical workstation connector, so be aware if you’re buying the latest incarnation of the ThinkPad “P” series.)

UPDATED: See my notes as this unit was NOT the problem
I have a P50 and have experienced one situation â on station it will NOT fully boot up, just get a black screen. I have to remove it and once I lift the lid it will boot up and can then put it back on the station. I have tried the following to no avail:- Purchased a new docking station (I bought my P50 last march with a docking station) upon calling Lenovo it was out of warranty- The new dock station has the same problem – on the Lenovo site I found a docking station firmware upgrade but upon loading it the update log stated I already had the latest firmware- Upgraded my BIOS to the latest version- In the BIOS I did the following based on many Internet references to this problem: o Config/Display changed from Hybrid to Discreet and Boot Time to 5 seconds o Main/Security Restored Factory Keys â this actually gave me the LENOVO screen but just sat there making me remove the P50 from the docking station, lifting the lid to finish the boot up and then replacing the P50 onto the docking station o I finally reset back to Hybrid and 0 seconds since this provided no advantageI did call Lenovo and they were kind but simply followed a standard procedure that did not help at all. So I am relegated to simply dismounting the P50, lifting the lid and do a boot up to the lock screen, reinstall the P50 to the docking station and it starts up fine from there. I can honestly say I will never buy another Lenovo product! I give this two stars only because it does work but not as it should.01/10/2018 UPDATE: I found out that there is NO problem with this unit but rather with USBs attached to it. For me it was my USB Hub – once I unplugged it the unit worked fine. I then replaced the Hub and the new hub works great with this docking station. I have had the old hub for a few years now and I think it just went bad. If you are having the same troubles I had try unplugging one USB device at a time (start with you Hub if you have one attached) reboot and try the next.

The docking station works great. Very easy to use
The docking station works great. Very easy to use. Connection is quick and easy. It was very easy to set up. The only issue that I have with it from time to time is that I loose one of the monitors when I put my laptop back on the docking station. All I have to due is pull the HDMI cord out and put it back in. It is well worth this minor issue though.

OK. Workable for the price
I bought this to setup my Work From Home environment. To have the same setup in office.I bought this $30 version, expect it to be a refurbished of some kind.The HDMI port does not work as you see in photo. VGA works.I request for exchange. Got a second. Same issue.But while I try this, try that. I found the DVI is fine so I get a DVI to VGA adapter. Problem solved.For the price and support. I think it ok.

I love it – Great value
I got the dock and a 230W power brick included and I couldn’t have asked for more. I am genuinely surprised they could pack both into a $30 price point. Apple would charge this much for a dongle.Completely satisfied with how it works
