Pros & Cons
Pros
The b2b074 is made sturdily enough to last a while even in a rough and tumble environment. I like it quite a bit but it is an eyesore. One of the charge station's big strengths is that it's a tremendous space-saver!
This device comes standard with a standard 10 port 110v power strip that attaches to the back. The surge protector in the back is a huge help instead of having 10 plugs dangling from the wall!
Cons
In my classroom, i have 8 chromebooks with all of the power cords hanging out of the back, which pretty much defeats the purpose. This should not be marketed to chromebooks.
The surge protector does nothing particularly well. There are no places to plug a usb charging cable directly into the surge protector. Half the cord is in the back because there is no way possible to be hidden. It doesn't come with any chargers, maki... Read More
Highlights
Quality
That said, it is very sturdy and holds all devices (all of which have various covers) well.
Works great, easy to set up and every classroom or office with multiple ipads should have one.
My biggest issue was that the compartment inside that keeps the cords organized is supposed to easily slide and pop off to allo... Read More
My last organizational attempt, velcro-ing the chargers to a bookcase, was a complete fail.
Price
I'm really impressed with this and though the price is fairly high.
A very cost effective solution to the pricey similar storage case that was available at the apple store for considerably more money
This is an extremely expensive plastic tote.
If it wasn’t so expensive, i wouldn’t be bothered by it.
Shipping
And be prepared, i was shocked at how large this was when it arrived.
Packaging/appearance
Upon opening the shipping box, two small plastic pieces fell out.
I didn't realize how big it is until the box arrived: it really is big enough to hold 10 notebook computers.
While the charge station is pretty nifty, it comes fully assembled, it's not as lighweight as it looks, much sturdier and drop ... Read More
Competitiveness
We now have 4 of these and they are better than the aftermarket charging solutions.
3 - power: if you want to swap out the standard 110v powerstrip, belkin sells 10-port usb power strips that you can use instead.
This is similar to the ugly floppy disk cases we had in the '70s.
Not a major issue, and at least belkin allowed for this type of flexibility.

However i found myself being somewhat disappointed with the design of the attached power strip
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It does feel heavy duty but belkin is famous for power strip innovation while this power strip doesnt seem very well thought out

For one thing it just has 10 ac outlets with 0 usb ports which means that you need a separate ac adapter for each device you want to charge or at least a lowprofile usb hub that can fit within the unit
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
For reference theres barely enough room in a single column to have two ipad ac adapters and you need to plug one in upside down to make them both fit
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It is significantly cheaper than other products i have evaluated for my business though higherend products offer some bells and whistles absent from this one examples such as locks integrated plugs integration with carts stackability and led indicators
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Then again its also flexible in supporting a wide range of devices which is something that higher cost stations dont have as they are usually designed for one specific device
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Please note that this device is not necessarily intended for home use
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It is large and its appearance is more suited for an institutional setting than a bedroom or living room
