Would RecommendI'm remodeling my 1960's bathroom and thehe was only one outlet. Needed to upgrade to at least a double and this box did the job. Installation was tricky as there were pipes running above the space, but we were able to get it to align without a problem using a screw rather than the provided nails.

JUNK
Would Not RecommendThese are the cheapest cut in boxes I have ever "tried" to use in my life.....I would be embarrassed to manufacturer and sell something this low quality......Come on Cantex we are using these to work with 12 gauge wire. I would love to see a video of the company use these to cut in these using at least 3 wires. That would be funny!!! Guess its time to go back to the good ol days if you can still find "F clips" and "metal boxes" What a JOKE!

Tabs are poor
Would Not RecommendTabs didn’t extend on multiple old work boxes. Won’t buy this brand again. Extra work, ugly install.
Product didn’t work
Would Not RecommendWe bought two and neither of them worked. As in we couldn’t get power to make it work, not as it didn’t work in the situation needed. Wired it up and nothing. Will be returning
