https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BFRJHKWJ/ (Geekera, $32, has permanently attached AC Cord)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07THC5DJV/ (KeyPower, $38, has replaceable AC cord, most flexible charging port power allocation)
both of which work fine. The KeyPower is more flexable about allocating power (both C-ports are up to 100W), and its logic for reallocating power is better (it only does it if you plug in a second device, the geekera does it EVERY time even a single device in ... both briefly disconnect the charging device during the allocation process), but the geekera has more USB-C ports, which is why I got it. Both of those also have AC cords and don't directly hang off the outlet, which is a bonus in my book.
The Amazon one has the benefit of saying 'Amazon' on the side, which means it's probably not going to melt, but I haven't had trouble with my chinagarbage ones (yet). Other than that it's the worst -- only one port supports 100W (same as Geekera), but NONE of the USB-A ports support QC (ALL of the other adapters I've linked can do QC on the USB A ports). If two C ports is enough and you like the AC cord, I'd go with the Keypower. I've had mine for years, bought a second one, and never had any problems with it. I like that I don't need to pay attention to which C port I plug my laptop into, which is the main reason I'd recommend it.
In the next step up (150W), I also have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08RXX1B3H, which is nice because it can charge a laptop (PD) and phone (PPS) at the same time with no reduction in power allocation to either. 150W chargers are also becoming pretty common, so shop around. Pay attention to the capabilities of the individual ports. MANY of the cheap high-wattage chargers can't do the power allocation trick and allocate fixed amounts to each port (eg, 50Wx4=200W), which is a hard no for me.

I also used Hyphen-X 100W -- replaced too. In the last 3 years, ANYTIME I would charge either my Surface Book or Macbook Pro -- ALL of these chargers would heat up more than 140 degrees or more. DANGEROUSLY hot. It gets even more dangerous if you are using it during summer or a place without air conditioning on all the time.
Also -- with all of the variations of chargers, whenever I'd charge multiple devices simultaneously, like
Laptop + iPad Pro + iPhone + Mouse -- SUPER HOT (and some devices frequently disconnect and reconnect)
or
Laptop + nothing -- SUPER HOT
or
iPad Pro + iPhone + mouse/keyboard -- NOT hot, but frequent disconnect and reconnect
ONLY when it's like NON iPad-Pro devices including iPhones or mouse/keyboard/kindle -- THEN they do not disconnect.
Whenever it's high powered USB-C device plus something else, neither Baseus nor Hyphen-x chargers COULD not charge constantly without disconnecting.
I bought the AmazonBasics GAN about 2 weeks ago and for the FIRST TIME EVER was able to charge my Surface Book, iPad Pro, iPhone and a 4th devices ALL simultaneously WITHOUT devices disconnecting / reconnecting or getting dangerously hot.
I captured Hyphen-x reaching beyond 140 degrees yesterday and with AmazonBasics barely reached 110 degrees.
For my experience, Baseus has been the worst. I reached out to them with photos and all that, but they never responded back. Hyphen-x at least sent a replacement.
I wanted to try Anker but AmazonBasics is like 1/2 the price, though it's kinda big. But I'm okay with a little bulky charger since it is reliable.
Anyways, I felt AmazonBasics GAN charger deserves much more recognition. This is genuinely my favorite charger at this time.
Barely worth it at $35 but not really a slick deal in my opinion. But if what @exile said is true regarding the disconnects, then I can see why someone would like this.
I had a 120W Baseus that would constantly disconnect and reconnect, I told them about it and even sent a video and they sent me a new one. Now it rarely does that, mostly when I add more devices to recalculate the power distribution. But I paid like $60 for it 2 years ago.
