What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these electrical boxes for reliable performance in retrofit and new installations. Most highlight easy, intuitive installation with angled screws that bite securely into studs, eliminating weak drywall flanges. Reviewers consistently note sturdy, thick plastic construction that feels rugged and stable compared to flimsy alternatives, with secure mounting ideal for heavier devices. Many appreciate versatility for both old-work retrofits and new construction, plus ample internal space for GFCIs in confined areas. A few mention difficult-to-drive screws or awkward cable clamps, but overall satisfaction remains exceptionally high.

Easy electrical box
Easy to install but the capture screws fall out, so check before you buy that both are still on the box.

Stable
Way more stable than the ear clamp old work boxes. GFCIs have a little more room but are still a tight fit
