Stiff switch

The operation of the chain is stiff. Not smooth at all.

Simple things make life easier

 Would Recommend

I just had shoulder surgery and reaching up to turn on the lamp in my bedroom was very difficult. This little inexpensive item makes it so much better.

wrong switch

 Would Not Recommend

I thought the switch was three way. After it was installed I noticed it was one way only after I searched it for a three way pull chain. Too much trouble to return product after it was installed...My loss..

The perfect lamp socket

 Would Recommend

I am 88 and wired this to my lamp myself. Easy peasy. The 2 external parts screw together. I destroyed 2 of those dreadful metal sockets before I found this little gem. Could not force the two metal parts to mesh together. Never stop learning!

Socket worked perfect for my project. Used it and a ceiling fan pull chain to make a lamp for my step mom who has ALS and can no longer tirn switches.
