Love my Docking Station
Gives my laptop all the ports it needs. Can run multiple monitors and all sorts of USB devices now. Also makes is super easy to just grab my laptop from the dock and not have to unplug a zillion cords.

Side dock is extremely difficult
Feature-wise, I'm still determining if I like it or not. I have two 30" monitors attached (HDMI and DisplayPort). Resolution and responsiveness both look pretty good. I have the USB ports all filled (mouse, keyboard, video camera). All of that is working well so far. Where I have an issue is the horrible side dock. Before turning anything on, tried docking and undocking multiple times. The computer has to be in the dock in a very specific way or the side dock doesn't engage. It will only come out part way. You know the computer isn't in the right position because the side dock slides easily when the laptop is positioned correctly. However, I tried about 3 dozen times to dock/undock. In 3 dozen tries, I literally only positioned it correctly maybe 3 times. the point of a dock is to be able to get up and go and return. If it takes me minutes and lots of frustration, I'm likely to not want to dock. At this point, I would not recommend the dock. After using it a while, if it appears it is me not understanding how to correctly position the dock, I'll review my review.

    I guess it works...
    It has a lot of utility, however, There is some sort of connection issue with it that causes my monitors to disconnect randomly and the only thing that fixes it is when you undock and dock the laptop.

    Hard Dock
    Great hard docks for business laptops. Still like having a dock that doesn't require pluging in a cord and adds ports rather than taking away.

    Works, but!!
    In my use case, the laptop sits semi-permenantly on a table aside my work space. It is connected to an external monitor, keyboard, mouse and headphones. I turn off all power via a wall-mounted power strip each evening. I power it up each morning The laprop is seldom removed from the dock unless I need it at some other location - which is uncommon, but is frequent enough that a laptop is wanted rather than a small tower. Unfortunately the dock video connection does not activate upon power up. I have to power the system up, open the laptop to determine when Windows has started and then move the dock latch 2-3 times before the dock video is enabled. (all other dock ports work just fine from power up, only video does not) For the last 10 years I have used 2 different HP laptop/dock packages and neither of those had such a problem. Because of this issue, I cannot recommend the ultra dock to other users. I am VERY dissapointd as I had always thought highly of Lenovo products

    Extra Help
    Just what I needed to hook up my extra screen and various connections for Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Lots of outlets and I like the lock feature.

    Ultra Docking Station Fails Output to Monitors
    Drivers for the docking station would not properly load in Windows 10. While output and connection for ethernet, sound, etc. worked. The docking station would not send output to connected display monitors. Appears to be a known problem, and even after spending hours attempting workarounds suggested in online forums on Lenovo's own website. Could not get the single connected HDMI display monitor to work. Could not get drivers to properly load - because of driver issue could not update firmware. This should work out of the box without tech support needing to spend so much time getting the configuration to support output to connected display monitors. Additionally, even when docked and locked, the laptop appeared to intermittently drop the ethernet connection. The entire reason it was purchased was to assure a stable connection while making desktop resources available so user could easily dock and undock for portability.

    Great dock with many ports
    Bought this dock for the T14 Gen 2 AMD and works perfectly. Typical USB-C docks (this laptop doesn't have thunderbolt) don't support multiple displays, with this dock I am driving 2 4k displays (along with the built-in laptop display). The rest of the ports work as expected. The only gripe is the side connector feels tight at first - it is trying to line up and connect 3x ports on the laptop.

    Junk
    I should have read the one star reviews before I ordered this. Display problems right out of the box. Most of the one star reviews are display related. Time for a redesign Lenovo. Replacement hasn't arrived yet like it was supposed to. So we'll see how that goes, and hope the next one works. It is easy to hook up the laptop. I don't see how people have so much trouble with that.

    Not able to display additional monitors
    I had problems with my initial docking to have it displayed with my additional 2 monitors and reported this failure, 2 days later I receive a replacement but still with the same problem. Not able to display to my additional monitors.
