Wrong Item Delivered

Would Not Recommend

The wrong item was delivered to my house. A Family Dollar store bag containing air fresheners was left at my front door, see photo. I ordered Utilitech 50-Amp 125/250-Volt NEMA 14-50p 4-wire Grounding Heavy-duty Straight Plug.Melvin

Way too small to wire

Would Not Recommend

The plug is extremely small and leaves no room to wire it up without risking wires touching let alone being able to close it back up.

discount for review

We pay for the products and rarely get discounts on things we actually want. You want a review, I want a gift card or discount.

Junk product

Would Not Recommend

Licensed electrician of 40 years. This has to be one of the worst designs I’ve ever seen. I would not recommend this to be used on a 50amp circuit. Makes a good paperweight on my desk tho.

It's OK for permanently plugged-in devices

Would Recommend

I like that this plug has full length screws with nuts, which allows for a safe and secure assembly. I also liked the proper smaller cable openening, with additional plastic pieces to further minimize it to secure 30A cables. The internal connectors aren't separated by plastic from one another and require careful wire routing from the electrician, to avoid internal shorts. The blade shape is rectangular, has no faceted entry points, which should be OK when the device is permanently plugged in, ...
