My living room is a total disaster right now with cables everywhere and I just got my PS5 Pro delivered this morning. I really need a solid charging dock before my toddler trips over a wire and yanks the whole console off the shelf. I looked at the official Sony station but its sold out at every Best Buy within 50 miles of me here in Chicago. Then I saw those Razer stands but they look like they only hold one controller and I have three plus a DualSense Edge. Plus some reviews say the Edge doesnt even fit the standard docks because of the back buttons... I need something that can handle at least two at once and actually fits the Pro/Edge controllers. What are the best charging docks you guys actually use?

^ This. Also, be careful with those generic $15 docks. I learned the hard way when a cheap one overheated my original DualSense... total nightmare. I eventually grabbed the HyperX ChargePlay Duo for DualSense on sale. It's way cheaper than Sony's and fits the Edge if you're gentle. Just gotta watch the alignment tho, can be a bit finicky if you're rushing.

Yo! You definitely gotta check out the OIVO PS5 Controller Charging Station with Fast Charging. I love it because the cradle is deep enough that the back paddles on my Edge dont get in the way at all! Another amazing pick is the NexiGo D3 PS5 Dual Controller Charging Station because it has a really solid click-in feel. Both are super sturdy for toddler-proofing. Check out RTINGS or Reddits r/PS5 for their accessory spreadsheets, they're lifesavers for tech specs!

Honestly, been there with the cable spaghetti. I actually bought the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense Charging Station when I first got my console, but man, it was such a letdown for my Edge controller. The back paddles kept hitting the base and it wouldnt seat right unless I took them off every single time... total pain. I also tried a cheap knockoff from Amazon that claimed to be pro compatible but it literally stopped charging after a month. Here is what I found actually works for the Edge and standard pads:

  • PowerA Twin Charging Station for DualSense
  • This one has enough clearance for the back buttons if you seat it right.
  • Razer Quick Charging Stand for PS5
  • Great build but like you said, only one slot. I ended up getting a second PowerA dock just to keep the Edge separate. Its not perfect but way better than wires across the floor. Tbh the official one is overrated if you have the Edge anyway.

Yep been there done that. Can confirm everything said above is spot on.
