Good but hard to change the opening
Would RecommendIt was great and does the job. Our biggest complaint was how hard it was to get the little peg for the hinge out so that we could change which way it opens. After a lot of banging and pulling we did get it.

Delayed delivery
Would RecommendDid not use the product, appeared to be just as ordered, but delivery was late, total 6 days from ordering to delivery. Purchased another product, returned this one to the store for refund. Not acceptable delivery time frame.

Did not work!
Would Not RecommendMy son got everything installed into the outside wall only to find out that the actual plug in did not work. The box is still installed so we cannot return it, but we have to purchase a new insert which is the actual plug-in. I’m very frustrated with this purchase. I’m going to try to get a refund or at least a new plug insert

outdoor power box
Would Recommendkind of expected to mounts for wall mount to be inside, not additional tabs mounted to the back of the box, but still worked out. Nice to have the GFCI included in the kit.

Weatherproof GFI Outlet Mounting Parts Shortage
Would RecommendOn the positive side, this GFI outlet is well engineered and will do the job. On the negative side, only TWO mounting ears are provided and not four. I had to fabricate two more mounting ears, one for each rear corner. Only 3 stars: Reason, with only two mounting ears, how do you mount the box to a wall without rocking or pulling away from the mounting surface when you plug a cord into the outlet, or remove the cord when the project is complete?

Mounting screws broke
Would Not RecommendI've purchased a half dozen of these over the summer. The first 4 I had no problems. The last 2 have had the outlet mounting screws break off. This creates extra work to drill out the broken piece and find a slightly larger screw to mount the GFI outlet in the box. I think I'll be staying away from Hubbell products until the quality comes back up to where it once was. This is a great concept, but ultimately creates more work for me.
This could have happened due to cross threading or it could be the Bell box threading or powder coating over the threads, making it harder to drive t...
Outlet doesn’t work
Would Not RecommendI went to buy outdoor outlets was exited to see I didn’t have to piece it together myself. Turns out the outlet didn’t work. I bought two nether one worked. Wasted hours thinking I did something wrong. I ended up replacing the outlet and it works
