I personally have both the official dock and this "usb-c hub" made by Anker:

I use the official dock at home, but I use the Anker dock at work. Overall I think I like the Anker one better. It has two HDMI ports that I use with my dual-monitor setup at work. The official dock has one more USB port, but the Anker one includes microSD and SD card readers.

My biggest complaint with the official one is that I couldn't get it to work right with my dual monitors. I tried using a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. Surprisingly, I managed to get it to work properly in Windows, but never in SteamOS. We have other computers running Debian Linux at work using the same DisplayPort adapters, with no issue.
