great box, larger volume would be even nicer

nice box, sets well thanks to oversize face tabs. I wish they would make them in larger (volume) size. Make sure that you screw and unscrew the mounting tabs a few times before install.

Badly designed junction box.

Would Not Recommend

Bad design. I always have trouble installing these because flaps are made very flimsy. Only Lowe's carries these and they are horrible.
