Anker Prime Charging Station, 240W 8-in-1 Power Strip, 5ft Detachable Extension Cord with Multiple Outlets, 2 AC, 4 USB C, 2 USB A, for iPhone, MacBook, Desk Accessories, Home Office (Not for Travel)

I finally replaced the tangled mess of charging cables at home—and Anker’s desktop charger, along with its accompanying data cables, has completely cured my charging anxiety! The multi-port design of this desktop charger is incredibly practical, offering enough total power to charge every device in the household simultaneously at full speed. The included braided cables are built with robust materials—far more durable than standard TPE cables—and show no signs of cracking even after repeated bending. The reinforced design at the connectors is a thoughtful touch, ensuring a rock-solid connection when plugged into a phone. The stand is angled just right, allowing me to use it as a phone holder for binge-watching shows while charging; plus, the ventilation ports prevent the devices from overheating. The overall craftsmanship is exquisite, and the aesthetics are top-notch—it serves as a stylish yet practical digital accessory on my desk. Anker truly lives up to its reputation as the gold standard in charging technology; this shopping experience gets a perfect score!

Ease of setup with app. Fast ports up to 140W. Compact. Plug in outlets handy for lamp or other devices. Solid build. Cord length a good length. Only negative I see so far is the size of the power brick, which can limit outlets. Overall solid station.

I picked up the Anker Prime Charging Station because I needed something with more capacity, especially one that could handle both USB charging and AC plug-in devices. This unit delivers on both fronts with a sleek, well-engineered design and seriously capable specs. It features four USB-C ports right up front, which is fantastic for modern charging needs, and it also includes two USB-A ports discreetly positioned on the right side, which is perfect for legacy devices. On top, you'll find two AC outlets that can be individually actuated with a dedicated power button. There's also a side-mounted button that toggles the display view, giving you real-time status at a glance. Anker offers a $200,000 connected equipment warranty, which tells me they are confident in their product’s protection and reliability. The charging station itself feels solid and well-constructed. The AC adapter is a bit bulky, but that’s understandable given the power this station can support as it's built to handle multiple high-demand devices simultaneously. This is the kind of product I trust with my laptop, battery packs, and phones, especially in situations where power stability is a concern. While Anker notes this isn’t meant for travel, I’ve still brought it along on personal and work trips when I’ve wanted the security and convenience of one charging hub. It’s not ultra-portable, but it’s powerful, safe, and incredibly useful. Highly recommended.

Fantastic charger, runs my laptop, S25 ultra, Garmin watch and anything else simultaneously. Can track power usage and adjust the profiles of the ports for priority.

Anker is a known and trusted brand in my opinion. When I saw this “power station” while looking for a good multi USB charger I immediately took interest because it was an Anker product. Upon receiving it, I began to really see the use cases and various applications I could utilize it for. The actual AC wall plug is a bit bulky and larger than I anticipated but does correlate to the 240W charging capabilities. The ability to detach the (bulky) wall-plug portion is very handy as I will be using this as a travel charger for work. To many times I have been in a hotel and wishing I had a short extension cord to be able to plug multiple things in closer to the bed or desk. This solves THAT, plus the hassle of having to carry multiple power bricks for the multitude of devices that I carry and use daily! What’s even better is that this power station will automatically throttle power based on the device that is being charged!! Need a high watt charge for an iPad? DONE! Need a lower watt charge for a mouse or keyboard? DONE I highly recommend downloading the Anker mobile App!! It uses WiFi and/or Bluetooth to connect to your phone wirelessly for added functionality and features. In addition to monitoring real-time power usage, you can set timers (like sleep timers) for each USB port AND THE AC power outlets as well! There is a lot of other information and additional features within the app that make using the power station even more practical! (Pro-tip: you can even turn the display off!) As with every Anker product, it is a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of the products is (in my experience) always very high! I wish there was an option/setting to make the screen automatically scroll through the three information screens so that you can monitor everything without having to press the button or use the app. So far I am really impressed with this product, and I have already recommended it to a friend who is a commercial airline pilot that travels a lot and he has already ordered one!! I will update this review as I use it more, but extremely happy with it so far!!
