DURABLE DEVICES WORTH THE PRICE, THANK YOU

These devices are of excellent quality. You can get cheaper units if you go this route. They match the new floor and the design features of the room.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Not the best

Fast and fabulous! - Electrical

Fast delivery and good packaging. I have used these in my carpeted living room and they are amazing. Looks a lot better than the flimsy cover originally used. It's easy to open the valve and much safer.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Not satisfied

Good results require some skill

Quality construction, one caveat: if you want it to be level with the floor you'll need to trace the edges and use a chisel about 1/8 inch deep to get it closer Bringing requires some skill with a very sharp chisel depending on the type of soil you have.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Other

Everything is very nice except.

Beautiful set. Heavy brass plate with a deep box and watertight gaskets but the included screws suck so much I threw them away and bought a replacement from Lowes. Why on earth do you need such a great product and the cheapest fasteners?

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • 0

A sturdy outlet and tamper-proof cover can be a great thing or a nuisance.

Mounts on a granite countertop, protrudes around a heavy-duty 1/4-inch socket. You'll need something flat like a wrench or flathead screwdriver to open it (this can be annoying). Unlike those fancy pop-ups, it's built to last. Difficult to add an extra plug unless it's an extension cord.

Pros
  • Easy-to-read control panel
Cons
  • Some issues

Overall a great quality product

Overall a great quality product. It looks good once installed and does the job. It was also fairly easy to install into the ground. Some modification of the soil is required to make it deep enough in the ground. Also, the actual socket box has small rings that get in the way and don't line up with the holes that hold the box in the floor. They were easy to cut off though and the top screws hold everything together well. It gets 4 stars because the lids have sharp edges rather than smoothโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Negative experience

Great bezel, may need some tweaking to install

The bezel itself is very nice thick metal with great socket covers. However, the installation depends on your specific gender. You need something the right height to screw in the box. Your sub-floor may be slightly lower than the actual floor you are walking on. So if you screw the socket into the sub-floor it will be too low and there will be a gap between the faceplate and the walls of the socket. You might not see this gap, but it's unsafe and against regulations because it doesn't fullyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Just installed two of these. High quality kits. We were concerned about some complaints of the lids being difficult to close once opened and the lids not fitting flush. But I had no problems. What I suspect in these cases is that the recesses that the installer has to cut in the floor weren't deep enough. Comes with a template indicating the required depth. Too shallow a groove will cause the outlet to protrude too far from the box and prevent the outlet covers from closing completely. Whenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Great floor box, read the instructions before installing!

I really like these floor boxes, I bought 2 of them to install in our new house because in the open plan apartment we needed sockets in the middle of the room under the sofa to connect the lights. They look great, are very sturdy and once you read the instructions they are really solid. Floor. You can't just cut a hole and then mount the back box flush to the floor, in which case the panel sticks out 3/8 inch. I ended up removing the tabs and cutting a hole just for the box and then installedโ€ฆ

Cons
  • Ugly packaging
