This is a great addition to your desk setup. It has a good amount of weight so it doesn't move around, lots of ports and USB ports.
PROS
Small
Lots of ports
Portable
Solid (won't slide around)
CONS
Would have been nice to have an option for a white version.
Overall a must have and I recommened this product to anyone looking for a portable power station in your office, kitchen or bedroom!
I had one for the kitchen area (where my computer is) and now have another one for the office. I don't think my first review was posted so here is what I originally wrote.
********************
I received this Power Hub a few weeks ago and wanted to wait until I tried it to write a review. I have a small triangular shelf in my kitchen, which is where my computer sits. I have always worried about the many different plugs that I need and don't like a floor strip in this area. This works perfectly as I only have one rather hefty power cord to watch now and plug away. Also, had a family reunion today and thought this would be great with all the crockpots. Put a table against the wall and the cord ran down the back of the table. Not to my surprise, there were many crockpots plugged in to this Power Hub and no worries about little kids tripping on cords in the many various locations around the community hall. And the hot food was in one location and to top it off - several used this to charge their phones. Had many inquiries about where I got this item. It was a hit!!!
It's a little weird, you will have cables going everywhere with low organization - that I won't fault the company for. This product is made very well and has a sense of upscale build quality. USB ports do not support fast charging for those here looking for an official answer.
I really like this thing and it does well for what it's advertised to do. My only wishes are that you could change the color of the top ring/button or disable it, because the green light is pretty bright at night and doesn't match my hue lights. I also wish it had some sort of quick charge for the USB outlets for when I plug my tablet or phone in. USB c would also be cool, but it's understandable it's not there for this price point. I like power strip a lot and it lives on my desk powering my monitors, soundbar, racing wheel, various chargers, and game consoles. I just wish it had a few more features.
Great desktop power strip. Takes up less desk space and let's you still hide most of the clutter. I docked it a star because it doesn't automatically come back on after a power outage. You have to turn it back on manually, unlike other power strips. I love the shape of the power button on top, but it should be positional, not momentary. This seems like a huge miss to me.

This power strip provided me with more than enough outlets and USB ports for my electronics/entertainment center setup. Its a simple sleek design that blends in well with other electronics, so it doesn't look out of place or garish among things like the PlayStation, Xbox, TV, Roku, etc. i got this when it was on sale but even at standard price, i think the AUKEY POWER strip is a worthy product and i would recommend it to friends if it weren't currently sold out. If/when it is restocked, i will definitely recommend it and might even consider purchasing a second one for myself for set up in my office,
Purchased this for a mission trip to Puerto Rico. Dorms we were staying in only had 1 outlet and there were 12 of us in there. Cable was plenty long enough to keep in the center of the room and everyone could charge their gadgets with ports to spare. USB ports charged faster than the standard iphone adapters which was awesome. The top button is easy to hit off so I would't have it power a desktop, but the light coming off of the ring was an added bonus as a night light.
Aukey is the low key champ in my opinion.
This is excellent, would easily get five stars, except for one thing: the giant on-button also turns on a ring of green light that is WAAAAAY too bright. Bathes the whole room in shaZAP!-green glow at night, really stands out even in the day. Whatever color your room is, it is now *bright* *electric* *green* at night, all night, every night. It's not enough for me to go to the time and trouble to send it back, I'm just going to put something on top, but ... why, guys, why? What were you thinking?
EDIT: Immediately got feedback from Aukey. They offered me different power strip, with which I am satisfied. Pretty darn good customer service raises rating to 5 stars.
Was exactly what I was expecting. This is very innovative design that fulfills all the requirements. No need for worrying to have chargers or plugging in and out cables,
I would definitely recommend this product to others as I am buying 2 more for myself. One for office and another for Christmas present.
On side Aukey has great customer service and every product is backed by there warranty.
This enabled me to go from 3 power strips and numerous USB power adapters to one device. The only thing I don't like is the push-button switch on the top. The cat has hopped on it a couple of times, bringing down the power on multiple devices. :-) I've taped something more rigid over it to avoid such mishaps.
