Sturdy material and Easy Installation Utility Box
Would RecommendGreat outlet box for rough in electrical installation. This utility box has a much stronger case then others electrical boxes. Prefer this utility wall outlet over others.
Got the job done
Would RecommendWorked as needed, got the job done. Used to perform electrical in residence.
More difficult to match drywall depth when setting
Would RecommendNot forgiving if you have to move the box later, you will need new nails. Like that it it plastic and non conductive. The plastic box does not allow for clamping down wires, so in an area with vibration the wire movement can losses later in the outlet or switch.
Not for use with GFCI outlets.
Would Not RecommendVery tight wiring. GFCI outlets (2 different brands) would not even go into these boxes as the molding channel for the mounting screws interferes with outlet installation. Going back to the old blue boxes. On the upside additional back taping is not required when installing spray foam as the wire channels are tight.

Design Flaw
I'm not sure if these are newer boxes but you can't fit a normal size outlet or a GFCI into the box because where you would typically screw in the outlet with the 2 screws, there is a step in the plastic and it restricts the box of the outlet to be installed.
