Review on Childproof Your Home With ENERLITES Elite Series Screwless Wall Plates - Dark Bronze (10 Pack) by Evan Sharma

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great Product, Easy Install, Nice Clean Look

The local Lowes store quit carrying the Cooper wiring products version of the screwless decora style wall plates, which I had recently replaced a few receptacles. I really liked the look and so started to replace all of the switches and receptacles and their cover plates to this screwless design. I found these that from the looks of them, were identical. And the price was comparable.Once I received them, there are a couple of differences which I don't really like. They are just fractionally smaller than the Cooper plates, and have very slightly more radiused corners. No big deal though. The biggest difference is that these have a slight "shadow line" around the perimeter where they snap into the inner part that you screw in. A little bit of a space.This shadow line is on the side perpendicular to the wall. The Cooper plates sit flush against the wall with no line separating the two pieces.Now this is picky, and probably not noticeable to anyone that walks in the room (especially if they are all consistent), but they just don't look quite as clean as the other ones. But since I can't find them locally anymore, I'll probably continue to purchase these as I renovate the rest of the house.

Pros
  • Smooth finish without recessed lines and soft edges allow for easy cleaning
Cons
  • The product may have a limited warranty compared to other wall plate brands or styles
