Plus, a 12-in-1 dock for $23? These things usually push $100. When it's too good to be true, it probably isn't.

Heads up for my MacBook friends. Description says no Mac support YMMV
Macs are notoriously bad with docks not specifically manufactured for them. Even tben The displays are a dice if they will be supported. Windows laptops should be fine.
I have. 6 year old dell laptop that happily displays dual monitor on a top tier dell dock. MacBook Pro refuses to recognizes two displays. I can't believe that's what I get for 2k - inability to support dual displays thru a high end dock.

Thunderbolt shares the same usb-c connection, but it is not the same.

Display is fine and all the USB ports seem to be working fine, haven't tested the SD slots yet. The one thing that's annoying me so far is that it's not able to pass audio through the dock's HDMI and to my monitor.
The work-provided Dell TB13 I previously used didn't have this issue. I will test with one of my Windows laptops later to see if it has the same issue.
EDIT: Audio doesn't pass through HDMI on my Windows laptop either. I like everything else about it but this is annoying enough that I am tempted to return it. I don't want to wire a 3.5mm cable from the dock to my monitor just for audio.

Generally speaking, macs have thunderbolt ports not "USB-C" ports, so without that designation, not all usb-c devices will work as intended. Most will, and work just fine, but it's not guaranteed.
You're essentially missing out on the thunderbolt port speeds/throughput by not buying a thunderbolt device, but that's personal preference. Not to mention, monitors can be finicky with usb-c specific devices but BetterDisplay exists for the Mac for a reason (which I recommend).

Most usb-c docks/dongles will work just fine, i've tested way too many of them, but the company will usually say 'doesn't support" because they haven't certified them working properly, especially these cheap junk companies. Dell docks (which our company uses a lot) work 'just fine', though I hate them and sometimes they require drivers to properly connect certain monitors.
I just prefer a thunderbolt specific device as it's a lot less of a headache.
