What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the deep design and spacious interior for simplifying wire management and installation, especially in older homes. Most find it easy to install with secure clamps and durable heavy-duty plastic construction. However, several report brittle plastic tabs and stiff screws that snap or strip during installation, with some receiving units with missing or damaged parts. A few describe quality control as inconsistent. Despite these concerns, most customers consider it reliable for DIY projects and would purchase again.

Tabs are poor

 Would Not Recommend

Tabs didn’t extend on multiple old work boxes. Won’t buy this brand again. Extra work, ugly install.

Product didn’t work

 Would Not Recommend

We 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
