Terrible Design, Unsafe Outlets

As a result of using this product I found that the tamper-resistant feature actually makes it difficult to plug anything in. THE cover plate is so flimsy that it bends when trying to insert a plug. The outlets themselves feel loose and wobbly, which is not reassuring .While they may be tamper-resistant, they do not feel very secure..

Pros
  • Tamper-resistant feature
Cons
  • Flimsy design, loose outlets.

Nice, but there are questions.

Plug recessed under cover. Connectors other than the standard straight connectors will not work. You can't use a "flat" extension cord plug, most USB converter plugs, and a flat plug.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
