Like it better than the Belkin options.
It should. The bump doesn’t affect the Belkin one like it does the MagSafe Duo as the pad is smaller and raised, as opposed to larger and flat. It doesn’t touch the bump on the 13 Pro or 14 Pro so it definitely won’t on the Max.
Just received the newest one (with fast charging for AW7) and tried it with my wife’s 14 Pro Max. It works and fits fine!
For some reason, when I filter for chargers compatible with my 14 Pro Max on the Apple Store app, that one doesn’t come up. Wonder why.
Scroll down to the bottom and expand "Compatibility"

Do you know if Costco is selling the version that can fast charge the Apple Watch Series 7 and up?
It says with magsafe. 15 watt. Not sure about the watch charging speed But I’d assume yes. On Belkins site , it does say 7 and 8 watch.
Seems like a great deal, but there are a ton of negative reviews with people complaining about the magnets not being strong enough. I’m sure some of them just didn’t realize they needed an iPhone 12 or newer and a MagSafe case, but it’s hard to tell. Guess it’s Costco, so could always take it back.
I use the Belkin 3-in-1 and the magnets are strong enough to pull the phone from my fingers and lock it in place, but only when it's aligned properly. Once it's in position though there is no mistaking it. 
On the Belkin 3 in 1 with phone and watch suspended in the air, can you adjust the angle of the phone or watch? Nightstand mode work for watch?
Has anyone used this one: https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Wirel...==&sprefix=u+green+iphone+appl,aps,108&sr=8-1
I don’t have it, but it looks promising.

I have 14 Pro, AirPods Pro, and Watch Ultra. They all work perfectly with that stand. Love the stand.
It doesn’t matter much for overnight if the $90 sale is more important, but yeah otherwise I’d get the $127 newer variant on Belkin’s site
I’m not sure from your post - have you used this one yet or not? I really like the look of it but both Apple and Otterbox’s sites don’t list it as compatible with any 14 models.2-in-1 Charging Station with MagSafe

I don't like that you can't see the watch. Does the Belkin one not work with nightstand mode?
I don't have either Belkin model, but it looks like the flat Belkin model works with nightstand mode, not sure about the "tree" model. I prefer an upright charger for the phone and the option to lay the watch flat or have it upright, depending on what band I have on. (I realize the Otterbox doesn't meet that requirement for the watch charger.)
I really like my current watch charger, the circular one Apple used to sell where the charger could be flat or upright, so I'm more just looking for a phone charger, but if I found one that would work for both, that would be great, too.
A way to use the phone charger upright, but with an option to lay it flat if I am using a non-Magsafe case would be great, too. I'll just go out and check my yard for unicorns while I'm at it . . . I'm using a Logitech Powered charger for my phone now, but it bothers my OCD that it doesn't sit on the charger right because of the camera bump.
Has anyone gotten the Belkin kne since the Costco sales started - and confirmed it’s really the older one that does not fast charge the Watch 7/8
I have the fast charging version and just picked up the Costco version the other day since my wife is finally going to go MagSafe. The boxes are different sizes and the box specifically mentions the fast charging for the watch on the front.
