This thing is HUGE and a huge waste of time
This thing is HUGE and a huge waste of time. Almost half of the ports came DOA. I purchased several 6 port chargers for less money instead.

Save your marriage: Buy a Yubi Charging Tower
This may well be my favorite technology purchase of all-time. Before we got our Yubi, my husband I were competing for the measly 6 ports worth of USB charging we had set up in the charging shelf in our living room. How many times did I wake up in the morning to discover my Fitbit was uncharged -- because my husband had unplugged it so he could charge his iphone? How many times did I lie awake at night, wracked with guilt after unplugging the cord that was charging my husband's backup battery so that I could charge my iphone?We tried dual ipad/iphone charging docks -- too much real estate, too few devices. We tried buying more cables, but we had nothing to plug them into. We tried powered USB hubs, but they didn't actually work when plugged into the wall -- only when plugged into a computer. We even tried marriage counselling, but our counsellor didn't know how many watts were required to charge an iPhone vs an iPad, so really, how much help is that?Finally, I fell in love with someone else: the Yubi 24-Port Charging Tower. In my mind, it was as big as it was fantastic, so we measured our USB outlets to estimate its height and ensure it would fit in our cupboard (perfectly!!) I visited it on Amazon for weeks, wondering if I was ready...wondering if I could really just make do with 10 or 16 ports, like a normal person. (Or more accurately, like someone a normal person would have shunned in high school.) But any good relationship is ultimately based on knowing yourself, and I knew that with a 10- or 16-port charging tower, it would only be a matter of time before I would be ready to move on.In retrospect, I can't imagine why it took me so long to commit. Once it arrived, it was even better than I could have imagined: cute, compact *and* environmentally-responsible: because each tier has a separate on/off switch, you can plug your devices in one tier at a time, and only power on the outlets you're actually using. Best of all, it really does have enough outlets for a 4-person, technology-obsessed family: even *we* have yet to come close to using all our ports simultaneously. Of course, when we do...there's always the 48-port version.

The tower worked well and I like the look
one of the buttons pushed through into the body of the box in the "on" position. The tower worked well and I like the look, the lights and the number of ports but I returned it because of the broken button.

Great little product with small footprint
Great little product with small footprint! Easy to use, each row of ports has an on/off button so that power is saved when not in use. Worth the money for sure!

Read before purchasing.
This item came to me new, first thing was one of LED was out., really don't care about LED if I could turn them off I would save power.I do turn off the top section not using. The unit makes noise, not loud but wasn't expecting it, non of my existing chargers made noise. Lastly I have two the 3 generation iPad 3 iPad mine, 2 iPhone 5 charging on it so dose work. The large iPads seem to take much longer to charge then ones they came with. They all are plugged in there own block of 2 as recommended.To be honest I haven't contacted the manufacture mostly because I'm lazy and the things that bug me haven't motivated me to that level. I would keep looking for more options if I was to do it again. If you only had smaller devices and small amount of noise not a problem then it's a great value.

Works Great
Works great. Allows our family to plug in 5 cell phones, tablets, battery packs, and Bluetooth devices in to charge all at once. Saves searching for plugs. iPad charges ok just not as fast as with the large apple plug.

but it's pretty annoying.
Ordered 3. All 3 arrived with broken buttons. Still using them, but it's pretty annoying.
