What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these electrical outlet boxes for straightforward installation in existing drywall and lath-and-plaster walls, especially for old-work retrofitting where studs are unavailable. The flip-out tabs securely grip without additional support, and reviewers consistently highlight sturdy PVC construction that resists cracking and outperforms metal alternatives. Many appreciate the reasonable price and practical design, noting they return to repurchase for additional projects. A few report minor issues with tab accessibility or depth limitations, but most consider these boxes reliable, durable, and ideal for remodeling work.

Its a box man. Not exactly sliced bread, ya know.

I added down lights to a few rooms., which required another switch. The double gang box is cheaper than a single gang, double switch. So this was the route i took. The old work box worked fine for its purpose. I run the screws all the way in and out on the tabs before installation. This helps make sure the tabs don't snag. Installed without issues. I expect the box to last until the next guy replaces it in a few decades for whatever reason.
