Not as good as the standard blue box

I bought one from Revain because it could come the next day and save me a trip to Lowe's. I was very excited when I received it. He is very fat and strong. The screws seemed like a big improvement over the standard nails. Unfortunately the whole experience was a disappointment and I will be replacing it soon. For one, the screws are difficult to handle. They do have to be pre-drilled into the studs, but who wants that? Without pre-drilling, it's difficult to keep everything in place, not break…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Empty

They are very strong

Sorry for the long review. This is probably the most durable old work box on the market and the price is cheap! This is great for an outlet that you need to constantly plug and unplug, like in the kitchen, bathroom, or on a desk, as it attaches to the stud with those amazingly long screws.

If you are not careful you…

Pros
  • Attaches to wooden or metal poles 25G
Cons
  • Wrinkled

I needed something to attach to a stud on the outside of a wall and this product fit the bill and solved my problem. A few things I found installing one of these: 1. As another reviewer…

Pros
  • Country of origin: China
Cons
  • I don't remember

As an electrician in Philadelphia, I install MANY boxes in old plaster and batten walls, while the usual "old" boxes for attaching to wall panels simply suffice due to unevenness and/ or depth of the wall paneling hardware on the inside of the wall will not work properly. Traditional metal ear boxes designed for fin mounting are not deep enough to accommodate dimmers, GFCIs, or other bulky devices. good results with the old treatment on the plaster strip between the nubs. In the end, the…

Pros
  • Very thick PVC wall material provides strength and rigidity
Cons
  • boring packaging
