I blogged about the Apple OEM 15W 4-USB Desktop charger here. Although a good product to have around the house, it presents a messy problem. USB Cables are all over the place. From the photo below, I've used only 2 ports and it is already an eyesore.

| Cables, cables, all over. | 
I bought the Bluelouge Santuary4 to replace the Apple 4 USB Port cable messy problem from 
Omigo. The normal price for the Santuary4 is SGD139 but there is a 20% off. So the final price is SGD111.20 which is a good deal. Because it is a local website, I ordered on the 17th Nov 2014 and it arrived the next day.
Here are the unboxing photos.

| Box: Back with details. | 
|  | 
| To charge multiple devices simultaneously. 4th version? | 
|  | 
| Box: Side. There is a stand for iPad charging.

| The item itself. The top panel is covered with a soft material to protect the mobile devices.

| The plug with additional adaptors. | 
|  | 
| It comes with a complimentary Micro USB cable. Nice!! | 
|  | 
| A short cable, just nice. | 
|  | 
| The charging unit is below the panel. | 
|  | 
| Cables connected. The panel goes on top... | 
|  | 
| ..mobile devices go on top. Cables hidden. | 
I do not know why Bluelounge labeled this as the 4th version / generation Sanctuary. There was only one previous Sanctuary.
|  | 
| The Sanctuary Version 1. | 
Bluelounge provided dedicated charging cable for the Sanctuary Version 1. There are a couple of redundant cables here.

| Charging cable. | 
And also, there was the Refresh
|  | 
| Charging cables are less but still dedicated. | 
|  | 
| But it seems a bit cramped? | 
So I can see the Sanctuary4 is a combination of both the 1st Sanctuary and the Refresh. They have done away with the dedicated cable and provided a bit more space, including catering for tablets by provided a back stand. Overall, a good product from Bluelounge with a lot of consideration given for their users.
