You can find a better deal (and get a better power strip) by just constructing something like this out of a more traditional power strip/extension cord and a USB adapter. Particularly problematic with this design is the very thin gauge lamp cord used for the extension cord: though it looks like a more rugged extension cord, the cord is likely only 18 gauge given the 10A rating. That's what you'd expect in what was commonly termed lamp cord, though even the lamp cord equivalent at Home Depot these days uses heavier 16 gauge wire.
I recently noticed a CyberPower 3 outlet AC power strip model GC306UCHD with USB A and 15W USB-C [cyberpowersystems.com[cyberpowersystems.com]] you can find at Home Depot for under $11(!). Unlike most every Anker power strip, the Cyber Power product is listed through ETL [intertekconnect.com[intertekconnect.com]] as a power strip and surge protector.
You can also find a comparable form factor from Amazon and historically at a per unit price as low as ≈$7 per cube if you were willing to buy a 4- or 6-pack (1-pack ASIN B082Q1LC55, 4-pack ASIN B082Q26YYT; 6-pack ASIN B082Q26GGD). As a bonus, the Amazon product has 4 USB ports, a heavier gauge extension cord (14 gauge), and has surge protection. In addition, the Amazon product has both of the appropriate/expected UL certifications (UL 1363 for relocatable taps - since the cord and receptacles are NOT molded together - and UL 1449 for surge protective devices) [UL Product IQ[ulprospector.com]].
It should also be considered problematic that the Anker product[certipedia.com] is listed under UL 817 (extension cord) and not UL 1363 (relocatable taps). UL 817 would normally be restricted to cords with a molded in connector (like an orange garage cable, or the typical white/brown lamp extension cord you might use behind a sofa with 3 outlets at the end). [CPSC[cpsc.gov]]
The fine print on the three USB ports on this device is that they share a total output of 18W,
So any single USB device might charge at up to 12W, but connecting even two USB devices at once is a severe restriction. At the same time, if slow charging is what you're seeking you're at the mercy of this device to decide how it apportions power.
TLDR: Buy another USB charger which can consistently deliver the power level you seek (either high power fast charging or slow/overnight charging).
Good luck!

You just complicated things. The man just wants a freaking power cord with a USB port.
By the way, the Cyberpower has a P65 cancer warning.
Lol, yes that turned a power cord into a power chore doing research. Spent more time analyzing then buying. Although, the knowledge is appreciate. The return on investment was unimaginable
Obviously more expensive than the OPs and not necessarily a SD but it has 13 well space out outlets, 4000J surge protection support, 2 USB A (12W shared) and a USB A QC and USB C (20W shared) ports. Uses 14AWG chord with a low profile 90 degree plug, has a slim form factor and has built-in external mounting tabs to allow it to be wall mountable.
I priced out desks (which are generally crap unless you drop serious $) and decided to build a relatively inexpensive heavy duty wood desk using edge joined 2x4s with a MDF sheet for the surface and 4x4s for the legs (it's a beast). My Kreg k4 pocket hole jig came in very handy allowing me to edge join the 2x4s and connect the 4x4 legs to create a stable, heavy table in about 4 hrs. I'm going to mount this outlet bar underneath the desk so I'm not constantly hitting the outlet/wires with my feet when sitting at the desk.
These MFers are killing us with these overpriced and crappy suckits. Anyone on here for longer than a week knows these are crap and has better sockets then this that they picked up for a fraction of the price. Ask for a link and you can suckit. True SDers already have so many mcclarren sockets that they picked up for a fraction of this price it's not even funny. I got chargers so powerful I pitch a tent every time I walk by them, they got usb, usb-c, lsd, dmt, and they cost a fraction of this price. Keep ur sockits off the front page. Ask for a link and you can suckit. True SDers stopped picking up >$10 sockets and pluggy wuggys week 1 on SD, deals like this are an insult. All these suckit deals get me charged up. If it's sub $5, fine, but there's no charger, plug, or socket, you cant get sub $10 if you've been on SD for more than a week.

Sorry... what is a suckit, a pluggy wuggy and a mcclarren socket?
