Using multi port USB charger versus power strip and using device charger blocks

[Sossity]

I have multiple USB devices that I charge at home. Right now, I use the device charger block that they came with and plug these into a power strip. This is getting a little messy since, the device chargers are sharing this power strip with some peripherals plugged into the power strip.

I could get one of those power blocks that have multi USB ports and plug this into my power strip and then plug my devices into this. It would be neater, but my concern is; is it better to use the chargers that each device came with? or would the multi usb port plug work? can I be sure that the multi port charger block will give adequate and right power to each of my devices?

The devices I have are macbook pro, iphones, ipad, ipod, and kindles.

I have one of the Orico 5-bay device charging 'stations' (http://www.oricothailand.com/store/orico_en/usb-charger/duk-5p.html) and it works well - but we only use it for phones and tablets, occasionally my wife charges her beats headphones from it.

The real gain is letting the devices sit vertically (and thus not taking up space or sitting on top of each other, and (not inherent to the charger) combining it with short charge cables. I got 5 short (15 or 25cm I think) USB-Lighting cables - it works really well.

Get something like this and use it exclusively "for charging":

I've been using one of these for when my wife and I travel... trying to charge two phones, two Watches and two iPads in a hotel room is brutal.

The only concern is total output. Be sure to check the device to make sure you are getting enough power. This one puts out 60W across 6 ports... some will do less (I've seen 5 port versions that only put out 40W) - the iPads charger really slowly at less that 10W.
