Pros & Cons
Pros
It looks cheap, but it works fine. Suited my application just fine. Easy to install and worked perfectly.
Cons
It takes several giggles and wiggles to get the switch to lock in to turn off or on. Too, it's not worth the headache to package it up to return it for the price. This switch is so cheap i didn't want to install it.
Highlights
Quality
Works fine - easy to install - seems well make.
Great reliable product that is easy to install for quick fix!
My task lamp had a cranky switch and i tried to straighten it out and broke the darn switch and socket.
Repaired my pole light, rebuilt 3 light outlets that were broken
Price
Definitely saved me at least $20-$30 since i would have had to replace the entire wall sconce if not for this.
Just the item i needed and the price was fantastic.
I bought a desk lamp for $3, but it did not work.
For the amazon price, this was a good buy.
Shipping
I ordered from amazon because i needed a replacement quickly, and no store locally had it in stock.
Packaging/appearance
No instructions in package, but if you fixed a lamp before, then this is simple and easy.
Competitiveness
Usually a trek to the hardware store is needed to compare size the new socket to make sure it fit correctly in the fixture well.
