Would RecommendSo easy. Bought this for an old antique lamp since it has an old world look.
Plug is good.
Would RecommendThe product was fine and works good. The first one I bought was the wrong one and I had a staff member helping me. I brought in the electric skillet to show what I was going to put it on and the guy still gave me the wrong one.

Bring the old one
Would RecommendI thought this was what I needed but I was wrong so I had to come back later and get the right one. I should have brought the old one with me
The throat of the plug where you feed the wire in is too large for smaller cables and needs a spacer of some sort or an excessive amount of taping to keep it from pulling loose.

suspended light was meant to be hard wired and it couldn't be done so we added the plug perfect.

DON"T BOTHER - JUNK ! !
Would Not RecommendWrite a review on a plug ... seriously ... Yep.. I need to replace the plug on the end of a home vacuum, this seemed like a good fit. NOT ! There is NO STRAIN RELIEF to hold power cord into plug housing. Only the wire from the vac held in by screws. JUNK / POOR design. I added some electrical tape and tie wrap to 'act' as a stain relief to get me by. How this items carries a UL label beyond me. Shame on Lowes to carry such an item ..
Looks Good on the Outside, BUT.....
Would Not RecommendSomeone in Lowe's greater Chinese supply chain failed to notice that, when you secure wire--even thin 18/2 lamp wire-- to the inner screws of the prongs of this plug and use the strain relief notches to retain the wire, the plug cover (case) has insufficient clearance inside to allow for neat reassembly without great difficulty. Result: you have to squash the plug back together and hope the two tiny retaining screws will hold the assembly together. It's slow and sloppy and low grade. Find a bett...
Straightforward solution for replacing old plugs
Would Recommendif you go to the store and look at the item, you'll clearly see it's not polarized, so why complain that it's not? there are lots of appliances this plug is great for: lamps and such, and in my case, a soldering iron ... strip 3/8" of insulation from your cord, tin the exposed conductor (always!) and feed it into the screw terminal, bending the wire thru the handy loop at the end of the terminal - repeat for the other wire, obviously, and you've got a strong connection ... if you're dumb enough...
