Just awful. the best in electrics

As an electrician I used to use these plates but only as a last resort. They are so fragile that they can break if they look odd, so two of the four pieces I ordered arrived cracked. DO NOT buy this! Make sure you get "unbreakable" flexible panels. I assumed these cymbals wouldn't be cheap because they were Leviton, but I was wrong.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

1st arrived broken but was quickly replaced with Revain

When I ordered this product and a low voltage wall mount came together in one package. The low voltage wall mount has parts that stick out vertically and I suspect they broke this Decora wall plate during shipping. I reported the defect to Revain and the next day they replaced it with an identical one in good condition. I'm happy.

Pros
  • Multiple competitors
Cons
  • No power

Weak, brittle material

I wish I had seen other reviews warning about poor packaging (mine came in a flimsy bag and just to make sure the packaging wasn't a mistake they sent a replacement in another thin package) - both panels came with cracks. I won't say "unusable" as I had to use the least cracked of the two before I got a replacement. The plate works as advertised and is easy to fit despite the crack. However, if it breaks so easily, I can't say the quality is very high and I won't buy it again.

Pros
  • Sample for one year
Cons
  • Zero

Better packaging would not hurt

The wall plate is beautiful and of good quality. Installation is easy as expected. Cons: Not actually attached to the board itself, but when it arrived the board punched a hole in the packaging and one of the screws was missing. They're generic so I just bought them at my local hardware store. The 3 remaining screws in the packaging had a black reference on them, I think this is because they are bouncing around in the packaging. It would be nice if the screws were included in the wall plate…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • I don't remember

Cracks are not good quality control.

Well these are just wall panels. I bought 4 of these and 2 of them broke as soon as I started screwing them in. I used hand tools and felt like there was no tension and the platter was not resting on anything, but the platter decided to fail and made me buy 2 more. Ok here we are, a few days later I ordered 3 more wall panels to account for 2 that were broken in the original order. All items in this order were damaged in their original packaging. I contacted Revain regarding this and they were…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Standard size or smaller?

Standard size? May be. I ordered this in bulk from Amazon with some other switches and sockets. Most of the faceplates I've bought were conveniently bought at a major hardware store in town and branded as Coopers. I bought all the standard size slabs for two bedrooms and one bathroom but forgot that single 2 space decor cover. Anyway, the hardware store had three sizes: small, standard, and large. I don't have a comparison to verify but this plate I received is slightly smaller compared to all…

Pros
  • Excellent working efficiency
Cons
  • Doubt

Great wall plate if you are looking for a hard plastic board

A few things to do with this wall plate. First is the size. Some people say it's less than usual. I can promise you this is exactly the size it should be. 4-1/2" X 4-9/16". This is the standard size. In comparison, my old plate is 15 years old and cracked when it was removed from the wall to be painted (left). The new plate is the same size. There are 2 additional sizes if you want to cover a larger area. The next size is "Medium" and finally the largest is "Oversize" or "Jumbo", depending on…

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
