Was looking for a decent docking station. Ended up doing a price beat at Officeworks. Not sure how long this is on sale for. Even though this is USA plug Officeworks matched and beat. Could be a good deal for extended WFH. Normal price $270. Officeworks retails for $199

Looks like my old Netgear modem
Looks like a Toshiba Dynadock clone.
Probably made in the same factory.
Toshiba one seems to have more USB 3 + analogue surround sound for the same price
This Kensington SD4600 seems to be a much better value even though it is refurb. Especially for people who need a usb-c dock with power delivery for more recent laptops. You could use a USB-A to C adapter to connect laptops lacking usb-c. Supports 4k, DP+HDMI, 60W PD, Thderbolt 3 compatibile.
I've got one of these

And it's great, I bought another for the wife and her setup.
USB C charger from the laptop now plugs into this, and this then into the laptop
Problem with most adapters is they only support 4K at 30hz which is crazy and feels like a slideshow. Most new laptops can easily do 4K at 60hz.
For 2 x hdmi i got this for $41

Also be aware that this dock uses displayLink over USB3.0 which pushes the video as a compressed datastream over the same cable as network / keyboard / mouse. I found when there was a lot of motion and network activity (9 video streams on Teams for example) that my keyboard and mouse were so unresponsive I couldn't unmute or hang up the call.
You definitely cannot use this for gaming and in my experience it's not suitable for video; only office applications.
This looks like that PS5 without the white sides
