What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this electrical box for its reliability, ease of installation, and effectiveness in retrofitting lighting and fixtures in older homes. Most highlight how fast and intuitive it is to install without studs, with a helpful template for cutting holes. Reviewers consistently describe it as strong, secure, and durable with ample interior space for complex wiring. A few note that screw quality is poor and hole-cutting precision is critical for optimal fit. Despite minor challenges, most consider it an excellent solution for remodels and old-work applications.

Works as advertised
Would RecommendThis installed well, with no issues. Had to back the installation screws out slightly to make the wings sit flat prior to install. No issues running the wire or attaching the light.

Good for retrofit
Would RecommendBought this because after taking down old vanity lights to replace them I discovered no electric boxes in the wall. This was intended to be retrofitted into the drywall however I had framing in the way that required me to use a box that wasn’t as deep.

Best electrical box for installing cameras, fits any utility and mounting with a hole saw into walls, well you’re going to agree on this is the box for the job, well made easy adaptable for securing if you have inch and a half wall or less your done quickly, otherwise glue the box in for perfection.
