Pros & Cons

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

Pros

This plug is labeled as tamper resistant, so are all the outlets in our house. The line and neutral terminals are both on the same side of the receptacle. Installing was a little tight - this thing is large.



Cons

Usb-c chargers are bulky and ridiculously slow. If you're paying $40 for a outlet i atleast expect it to be fast charger.

The problem with these outlets is that they force the use of wire nuts so i have 5 wire nuts to stuff in the outlet box behind the outlet.

The left usb-a outlet is unable to provide the required power profile. If you connect both ports on the outlet it seems to cycle between 9v/5v constantly. The gfci has no function, and the remaining receptacle on the circuit is thus dead as well.

A lot of earle's clients buy online electrical products and the failure rate is much higher. Out of 5 leviton gfci's, four were verified defective! The retailer and manufacturer want to stick it to me!

Quality


Works perfectly, and very easy to install with either backwiring or screw terminals.


Easy to install and is working great.


This plug has what appears to be metal covers that are at more of a 45 degree angle than the very flat looking plastic covers o...  Read More


Has been installed only a short period of time.

Price


I decided to keep it to use later as it was a great price


For the price of a good usb laptop charger, you get 2x usb chargers and 2x standard electrical outlets.

Shipping


Just to give an idea of the amount of power it can deliver using, well, power delivery (pd).

Packaging/appearance


Those boxes were tiny, and considering it had 3 romex wires already in there, all 12 gauge, there was no way i could fit this t...  Read More


Installing was a little tight - this thing is large - thankfully the box i was installing it into was a pretty decent size.


If you need to push 4 wire nuts back into a box, hope your box is deep enough.

Competitiveness


This outlet is similar to a gfi outlet in size and shape (for what goes inside the outlet box).


A little brand bias - all my receptacles and switches are leviton.


I saw other outlets that were much cheaper and learned that the price of this is more because it can allow for faster charging.


I decided to replace some off brand usb outlets as they were making a low db high pitch hum.

    Old receptacles werent holding in our cords any longer and needed replaced


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They are deeper than a standard outlet so install may not be as easy and may require trimming or cutting wire


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have usb outlets scattered around my apartment


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Decided to add 60w usbc outlets for charging ipad pros and macbook air


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unfortunately the 60w units were too deep to install in the places i wanted them


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also the outlets have permanently attached lead wires black white and green grounding which would require wire nuts and take up even more space in the junction boxes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Maybe ill try lutron usb outlets next
