Would Not RecommendThe top section split in half before I even got to tighten it into place. Luckily, the socket I was replacing top section fit the threads, but the plastic on this one was too weak. I would have replaced the whole thing, but the 3 Lowe’s stores nearby didn’t have any in stock.

Works as it should.
Would RecommendCareful when tightening cover
Would Not RecommendThe upper cover cracked when I installed it. Pretty sure it wasn't cross-threaded, but my habit is to make a knot in the cord to provide some strain relief (which added height to the inner socket perhaps). Not clear if it was already cracked. I used some cyanoacrylate, keeping it away from the threads and several black tie wraps. Seems way stronger afterward and worked fine.

Go somewher that sells just the parts you need
Would RecommendProduct fine, but I had to buy the socket/switch as well as the silver encloseure I didnt need. First clerk I asked for location was lazy and not helpful.
Plastic housing
Would Not RecommendThe plastic housing was chipped. If I purchase another fitting, it will be metal.

Does not operate 3 way bulbs
Would Not RecommendIt takes 3 clicks to turn the light one, but does not work for a 3 way build. It works just like the one I replaced.
