On the other hand, this as a phone charging station for standard chargers would be okay.
If power delivery or even lower powered laptops, this will overload.
Basically, on paper this should already look more like a fire 🔥 hazard than good utility.
* allows the cord to lay flat instead of sticking up and being an easier target to accidentally hit,
* prevents heavier cords draping to the ground from causing stress where the cord meets the plug, and
* eliminates wasting an inch or two of cord length that it sticking up instead of to the side would require.
Bear in mind the 1A described by another commenter would mean ~115W, and it's pretty unusual nowadays to have enough such devices in a single area at home to hit that 15A limit. We have more devices than ever nowadays, but they're all much more power-efficient than they used to be, making it a wash overall. A 15A electrical circuit means over 1500W of power (it's more than that, but I'm leaving an admittedly minimal amount of overhead for safety). Typically the only devices in a modern day home that draw a significant amount of power are large appliances (which should already have their own dedicated outlets), high powered PCs (like gaming rigs), and small number very recent ultra-high speed phone chargers - having enough of those running simultaneously on the same circuit is unusual and would cause a problem even without this power strip. Even if you did pull that much, your home circuit breakers exist for a reason.
Granted, many older homes generally have fewer circuits (with multiple rooms on a single circuit), so the cumulative count of devices on the circuit would make this limit easier to reach, but this is really no different than using chained power strips like OP described, or separate strips in separate outlets that are all still on the same electrical circuit (i.e. connected to the same circuit breaker). Again, I see all those outlets being provided for the flexibility, not for them all to be used simultaneously.
As for a business shop... If your business requires that many devices in one area that draw that much power simultaneously, then you should already have an electrical system set up to handle it and not allow the use of power strips, anyway.

This is just too much outlet.

Can't find anything about this company, Powsaf, online. They don't have a dot com website. So if this fails and my PC and monitor are fried, am I SOL?

This is like the sparking outlet with Christmas lights joke from "A Christmas Story." But much, much worse. And it's not a joke.
