Disappointing Tamper Resistant Outlet

As a hesitant buyer i purchased this product for my industrial workshop. As a result of using this product, I found that the tamper resistant feature was more of a nuisance than a benefit. It was difficult to plug in or unplug anything from it, which slowed down my work process. The outlet also had poor construction quality which led to it breaking after a few months. Overall, I was disappointed with this purchase and would not recommend it to others..

Pros
  • Tamper resistant feature
Cons
  • Difficult to plug/unplug, poor construction quality

The quality of the side wire is not as expected, otherwise good quality.

Received and installed 2 of 6 units today. Will update review in a year or two with notes on durability. Summary: For a commercially rated premium product, the side cable ports have the worst design and build quality in my opinion. The GFCI block seems to work very well. ----- For a $30 premium GFCI, you would expect it to be built as a tank with proper wire connections. The main frame and body of the device are large, dense and fairly rigid. Where it is missing are the lateral cable…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
