Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
The one thing to consider is that these do get sort of big and heavy to hang on the wall outlet. If the outlet is a little looser (was problem for me when travelling) or you tug on the cable a little - it could fall out of the wall.
No support for Programmable Power Supply (PPS) so no super fast charging support.
The two USB A ports are each limited to 12W on either port, but are also limited to 17.4W total for both ports.
The only way to draw more than 65W from the USB C1 port is in single port operation.
The USB C2 port is optimized for phones, supporting only 5V and 9V profiles.
This could be a reasonable option for a traveller attempting to consolidate multiple phone, laptop and accessory device chargers, especially if support for the fastest charging options (like quick charge and/or PPS) aren't required or applicable (such as for overnight charging or in the case of non-PPS devices like iPhones).
Good luck!

i have one of these. used it for a laptop+ ipad charging. 65w on one port and 18w on the other was rather dissapointing but for the money it was hard to beat. i replaced it with an insignia 140w dual port model. it will do 100w + 30w and it's spectacular. you do lose the usb A ports but in my case i did not need them. you can find it on sale pretty frequently.
all in all, OP's post isn't a bad deal and i wouldn't hesitate to purchase again if i needed it.

Looking for one charging my m1 macbook, is it decent deal? TIA.
Non-Pro MacBooks max out at 30W of USB C charging. The C1 port of this adapter, even when all other ports are in use, would have no problem charging a non-Pro MacBook at the fastest possible rate.
Good luck!

As a brand Amazon Basics is known for being poor quality. Unfortunately that Monoprice one also has high failure rate.
Insignia may be the way to go here...
Quality isn't necessarily linked to certifications, but this one is UL listed, as is the similar looking Monoprice one. Insignia claims some of its stuff is UL listed when it is not.
The one I bought from Anker a month ago seems to be working fine. I don't know how this would work with a MacBook Pro like mine, because it needs 100 watts.
I bought one of these a while back on a whim. Key among several pros - it consumes the same amount of space as a normal MacBook Pro power supply. I've been able to charge a 14" MBP, an IPad, an iPhone 11, and my Apple Watch simultaneously and all reasonably quickly.
One Con that does bother me is the top most USB-C port is about 2-3mm shallower than it should be. The official Apple MBP power cable (both the new MagSafe model and the previous USB-C only power cable) sticks out just enough to be dangerous should something metal contact the exposed portion of the USB-C port.
I've decided the above con is something I can live with but others likely won't.

That said, price per watt and number of outlets, this is hard to beat and the top port should be fine for charging a M1 MacBook.
I do have the similarly specced and priced monoprice charger, works well for me but per reviews has a decent failure rate.

A better one was $11 last week. Don't waste your money. Wait for a deal if you don't need it right now
