I have been using an Anker 20w for a while and it fully charges within 1-1.1.5hrs and that’s not bad.

Annoying that apple’s MagSafe cable is only 1m for 15w as well.
 
Max is 15W, and only from "MagSafe-certified" chargers (Apple, Belkin, Nomad, Anker Cube). I personally use the Belkin 2-in-1 and 3-in-1's, which are pricy but a lot cheaper on eBay. Only the Anker Cube charges at 15W, the rest will charge at 7.5W.

Any other "15W magnetic charger" will only charge at 7.5W because iPhone requires MagSafe certification to run at the full 15W.

Fastest with MagSafe needs active cooling.
Use apple / belkin MagSafe 15w with a fan/AC/purifier blowing under / over it. Fastest charge, minimal heat and battery degradation
