It depends... for me it was the perfect solution for connecting to my 34" 4k LG Ergo monitor. This monitor as a single USB-C port for connecting to my MacBook Pro to provide both a 4k Video connection and a PD charging connection. I needed a couple of USB 3.0 ports and the LG monitor only provides USB 2.0 ports. When docking I wanted to only have to connect one thing to my MacBook Pro and virtually none of the fancy and expensive USB-C hubs support both video and PD charging on a single USB-C port.
But this amazing little low cost hub DOES provide both video, PD charging and data over its USB-C port and adds some USB 3.0 ports too. So instead of spending several hundred dollars this wonderful hub allowed me to connect my monitor in the way I wanted and for less than $20. Amazing value!!!
