What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this electrical box for its reliability and ease of installation, particularly for old-work remodels in homes without existing boxes. Most highlight how simple and fast installation is, noting it requires no studs and fits securely in drywall with a helpful template. Many commend its suitability for retrofitting older homes and replacing outdated boxes. However, several reviewers consistently report issues with included screws that strip easily and wing tabs that break during tightening, prompting some to use their own hardware. Despite these hardware concerns, most customers find the box functional and worth purchasing again.

One good replacement
Would RecommendAll ceiling receptacles are breaking apart and letting fixtures dangle from the wires. This is 6th one I’ve had to replace. These boxes are ideal for this purpose. They align perfectly and are easy to install. Great rigidity for fixture to attach to.
