* Label reads Jonny Herbert Originals

The Jonny Herbert label produced sophisticated, junior-sized quality day, cocktail and evening dresses. The company was registered by John Buffa and Herbert Aptel in 1950 as a division on Sealove-Becker, Inc. By 1954 the company had expanded into the Midwest with a sales office in Chicago. Aptel later left the company but Buffa managed it until his death in 1973. I have not been able to track more detailed history of the company, although I must add that over the years I have owned a number of dresses from this label, and seen many more, and all are high quality, beautifully made and designed.

 

Condition 

Excellent. 

No notable flaws that I can see -  a sliver of thread can be seen on a couple of seams and stitching on hem a tad untidy but not visible at all from the front.

Please note that these are vintage items that have been used and loved over the years, As such, they may display slight evidence of their age. Any notable flaws above and beyond this will be highlighted here.

 

Comment 

Simply gorgeous dress with some fabulous design details that really make it stand apart from the rest. One of the best Jonny Herbert dresses I have had the pleasure of owning. Please drop us a line if you require additional information about this listing.

Worked for 4 months then died, UGREEN honored the warrenty
I bought this in October 2025 for my wife’s laptop to run 2 monitors and other peripherals. It worked until February 2026 when it just died, not charging laptop, monitors, mouse and keyboard all not working. I did the diagnostic procedure, restarted laptop, shut down laptop and restarted, switched off power strip then switched it back on, and then tried the dock on my M1 MacBook Air with no success. I plugged the USB C power cable directly into laptop and it instantly started charging. Supposedly this hub has a 2 year warranty, but the UGREEN site doesn’t have a clear way to submit a warranty claim. I sent an email to one listed on their site so will see if they respond and honor the warranty. Update Feb 2026: I contacted UGREEN customer support via email and the same night got an email requesting the invoice, i sent a copy; the next night i got another reply asking if a refund would be satisfactory, I replied a refund would work; the next night I received an email saying a refund would be issued, the next night I received an email from Amazon saying a full refund had been issued. UGREEN did stand behind their warranty, but the warranty claim process does not have a clear how to proceed, you just send an email and hope someone responds.

Game-Changing Dock That Transformed My Setup
I’ve been using the UGREEN 7-in-1 Docking Station, and it has been a **game-changer** for my setup. It’s made my workspace so much more efficient and organized, and everything I need connects easily through one compact device. The build quality feels solid, performance has been reliable, and it has truly been monumental in improving my daily workflow. Five stars all the way — highly recommend.

Does what it claims to do.
Initially hooked it up to test and it worked as expected, so far. I used this on a Windows 11 laptop and both monitors worked perfectly. I bought this to set up my work from home setup and I think it's going to work out just fine. One thing I didn't realize until I got the item and hooked everything up was that there's no ethernet port. I think I was mainly concerned about the dual monitor capability and price when I was doing my research that I completely overlooked the ethernet, not a deal breaker though, I'll just have to make two connections instead of just one USB-C connection to my laptop. The cord is definately not long enough, in my opinion. That fixed USB-C cable is 13 and 3/4 in long. I have an extension though but if I didn't have it, I would have had to buy one. Thats not really necessary unless you want a nice clean looking workstation with all the cables tucked away nicely. I plan on using this in conjunction with a KVM switch that I'll be purchasing later. The power pass through seems to work just fine. My laptop appears to be charging normally, no popup saying my battery is charging slowly. I'm using a 65 watt power brick for the power, not 100 watt like the description suggests. Although, my laptops original power cord is also rated at 65 watts. Overall, initial impressions, seems like a good cheap option for a laptop dock, especially if you work from home sometimes. I gave four stars just for the fact there isn't an ethernet connection, otherwise would have been five. Many other cheap docks like this one have an ethernet port, why not this one? I would suggest using ethernet over Wifi any time it's feasible. Thanks.

Disconnects sometimes..
This dock fit the bill for what I needed, a portable dock for when I go on trips. At first I was really happy with it but I had noticed that it did not seem to charge correctly. After some trial and error I realized the same thing that others have said about it. When my laptop reaches full charge it says "Connected" but will no longer charge. If i disconnect then reconnect it starts charging again. The only other big problem for me was that it did that while I had a portable ssd connected and caused file transfer issues. I think it will still be okay for on the road and connecting keyboard and mouse and monitor but that is all. I am undecided if I will keep or return.

A tank of a USB hub that does everything you need it to do.
I hooked up an external hard drive, my webcam, and use it to charge my phone. Initially, I was concerned about whether or not it would provide enough juice to give each item what they needed, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that everything was getting the same amount of wattage it was before. There are plenty of USB ports to keep me happy. My computer came with some in front and some in back, but it wasn't enough for all the different accessories I have. I looked at adding a PCIE card, but this hub did the trick for exactly what I needed it to do.I was also concerned about how much data would be able to flow through the hub, but again, I was surprised because the hub connected straight to one of my USB-C slots, which provided a high transfer rate. Well, high enough for me. It's really small, which I like. I can pack it in my backpack or laptop bag. The cord is short enough to be practical, but not so short that you can barely move the whole thing. It looks great, in that it's a neutral design that doesn't stand out in any negative ways. I have it velcroed to the side of my desk, and it's been rammed by the side of my computer a few times, so I know it can take a beating. Its strength is something I really like about this little hub. I don't have to be worried about tossing it in a bag and having it get bumped around or smashed. Overall, just what I needed, and for a great price.
