Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Overall very sturdy product and easy to install. I guess they are lower volume today, as they are difficult to find and now cost several dollars in the retail realm. Easy to install and super easy to use.

No more electrocution or fire hazard worries. The switch itself is solid, and no visible sparks (arcing) eliminates 4 way twist switch.

Replaces an old one that was shorting out and did not have the proper wiring. Screws for terminals are normal size to fit typical lamp wire gauges. Unscrew power cables from old switch. Bought 4 of them to rewire 4 lamps.



Cons

The guage of the housing is so light that it doesn’t clamp together tightly. Read the description closely…or you might be deceived. The base of the socket threads down tightly on the lamp stem.

Quality


Overall very sturdy product and easy to install.


Followed instruction & was easy to wire, works great


My old 3 way twist knob wore out and only worked after wiggling it like an insane person.


Our lamp in the master bedroom quit working.

Price


Now she’s happy and a great price for the product.


Well worth the money to repair a lamp with a loose switch.


Bought a lamp for $1 at a garage sale several years ago and the socket finally gave out.


These things used to be really low price and common.

Shipping


It arrived quickly and was very easy to install.


This replacement switch arrived in a short time and it was easy to install.


The price was the same as the home stores, so i ordered it here and the next day it was delivered, on the lamp and working.

Packaging/appearance


Picture shows two and they state it as a pack.


The instructions on the packaging were good and in short order i had a workable lamp for a fraction of what a new lamp would have cost.

Competitiveness


Switch moves smoothly and easily, not stiff as other brands.
