Makes life easier. Best in Electrical Engineering

The switch on my lamp stopped working and I had to crawl across the furniture to turn it on and then unplug it to turn it off. This product has made my life easier and saved me the money I would have had to spend to replace or repair it. I have a button at the end of the table and now I just reach out and press the button to turn it on and off. I'm a lucky tourist!

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Good, but not great

Using a cord to improve lamp accessibility for the elderly.

Excellent product. Beautifully listed. I use cords to access my senior lamps. The lamp is connected to the cable, the cable to the socket. The on/off switch is located on the side table at the base of the lamp. Don't turn into a pretzel to reach the shadow with the chain. You can't stand by the lamp and reach into the shadows to throw me off balance. I'm a lucky tourist.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

I wanted to switch two wall lights on and off at the same time. The product works well but I have a big problem with the length of the cable between the footswitch and the plug which is quite short. It's only about two and a half feet (I just measured). So now I'm forced to have a power strip next to the sofa, which I wanted to avoid.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Appearance

Physical key action is shaky

The key pretty much requires a direct, vertical press to get a "good" keystroke. It's just that the button has too much travel, so the slanted approach makes it hard to press. activate. You either have to step on the button (which reduces lifespan) or find a short but extremely wide spring to replace the crappy inner spring that just doesn't work. This was bought for my grandmother in her 80's and in my late 30's I had trouble activating the switch when needed. If you don't want CHEAP - stayโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Concise instructions

I fully understand the issue that other reviewers have had with the position of the footswitch relative to the fork. The way I got this to work for me was to plug a surge protector into an outlet behind my TV cabinet with a 6ft cord, then I wrapped the cord under the cabinet so I could use an extension cord/ a footswitch could hook up some garlands to it . chain method. I then hooked up a lamp on a small fridge next to the TV cabinet to an extension cord/footswitch, with the switch itself onโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • There are cons
