I'm actually not using this as a charging station but organize my nightstand - I have so many things that need to be plugged in - between my phone, alarm clock, bedside lamp, and light controler I was continually knocking one or more item on the floor. This has been the perfect fix! Pros: Versatile - it doesn't have dividers like some models, which means I'm not limited to small items (e.g. my reading lamp will fit). - You can actually have items on both levels, I currently have 3 items plugged in and resting on the top shelf, and another right below the top shelf (on the main level). So you can reasonably fit at least 6 items, even more if they're small. Storage - the drawers are really spacious, you can actually fit stuff in there. I have seen many other models where the drawers are really small or even just a fake front to leave room for the cord storage. Note: You can actually have items on both levels, I currently have 3 items plugged in and resting on the top shelf, and another right below the top shelf (on the main level). So you can reasonably fit at least 6 items, more if they're small. There's plenty of room for your cords, I currently have an extention cord with 6 outlet spaces, and you could fit a longer one. The top shelf is not permanently attached, so that allows you to fit things which may have a large plug end. Main shelf is hinged in the back and folds up.
