A single power cord on the back of the unit powers the USB ports, and it isn’t attached to a separate and bulky brick adapter like some of these products, everything is inside the Cove. The top shelf slides out to reveal five USB ports with 12W each on the right, allowing you to charge up to 5 iPhones, iPads or a combination simultaneously.
The Cove has three shelves inside to hold your devices. The unit, which measures 16.8″ x 12.8″ x 7″, functions well and is otherwise fairly sturdy, although it will probably feel a bit on the cheap and thin side if you were expecting real wood. It’s actually plastic that feels much like the white plastic on the bottom half of the unit that meets the faux wood. It comes in birch (the color I reviewed), ebony, and walnut color options, and it does a pretty good job of looking like real wood, but it’s not. Griffin’s Cove charging station takes a different approach by offering a self-contained shelving unit with built-in USB ports that can hold just about all of my devices that need charging.Ĭove is stylish enough to look good just about anywhere in your house an office, kitchen counter, or in a living room next to not-so-techy decor, and that was one of the company’s main goals. Little to no extra room for my many other devices– my MacBook, camera, external batteries, smartwatches, etc– meant the majority of my devices were still a mess. I was never satisfied with the crop of charging station products for iPhones and iPads that mostly all use the same design with slots to accommodate tablets and smartphones.
