The Best Charging Stations For Powering Your Devices and Hiding Cord Clutter!

As the number of devices in our household continues to grow- it has become a challenge to find places to charge all of our family's devices, and corral all of the cords! With 6 kids I decided that I wanted each family member to have their own charging station which will help each of us to get organized at the start and end of each day. So here is a round up of the best charging stations we are using in our own home-plus a few other ones that I love- to help you keep your devices charged and hide all of that cord clutter!

The Best Charging Stations- Our Top Picks!

What Type of Charging Station Do You Need?

What it really comes down to is:

• What do you need to charge?
• How many devices do you own
• Where do you like to charge them?

In my case, I keep a charging station at my desk (I love my bamboo charging station shown above!) to charge my iPad, my AirPods, and my credit card swiper. I specifically chose a charging station that would allow me to see my iPad as it charged (vs. a slot-style charging station).

Next to my bed, I keep a wireless charging stand so I can charge my phone, which also serves as my alarm clock.

The number of devices you intend to charge in a location should determine the number of ports you need in a charging station. But don't forget to future-proof… you never know what new device is around the corner that will be the next thing you'll want to own!

What Features Should You Look For In a Charging Station?

The key things to consider as you are comparing charging stations are:

• How large is the footprint of the charging station? Will it fit nicely into the space you have?
• Is there enough room inside of the station to contain all of the cord clutter as well as a multi-port charger?
• And of course- you want it to be aesthetically pleasing to the eye!

Top Pick: Jewelry-Box Style Charging Station I love the beautiful sleek design of this white wood charging station with room for 4 devices. The compartment in the back opens easily to get all of your wires and cords set up (I suggest using a multi-port charger so you only have one cord to plug into the wall.)

Top Pick: Hercules Tuff 6-port Charging Station This unique charging station has slot dividers that glow while your device is charging- and when they stop glowing they are fully charged!

(I believe the company will work with you to switch out the cables to match your devices). 7.2 x 5 x 1.2 inches Check the Price This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you.

Top Pick: Bamboo Charging Station I like this bamboo wood charging station for its clean lines and separate compartments for each device that allow me to see and use the devices while they charge. Inside of the box I use a 6-port charger and hide all of the device cords underneath- leaving one power cord to plug into the wall outlet. 11 3/4"W x 6 3/4"D x 4 1/4"H Check the Price This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you.

Best Multi-Port Charger for the Inside of These Charging Stations:

So the key to containing all of the cord clutter, is to have one unit inside of the charging station that is your power supply. All of your devices plug into that power supply, and only one cord snakes out of the back of your station and into the wall!

Top Pick: RAVPower 6-Port Charger Simultaneously charges six phones, tablets, or a combination of both. Safety protections prevent your devices from overcharging, overheating, or short-circuiting.
