Pros & Cons
Pros
It's a leviton and the quality is top notch. Brand new, with wall plate and screws, in good packaging. Slim size is very convenient.
Replaced another gfci outlet for the garage. Regulates a treadmill and water timer, has not failed or tripped the main breaker. I like that these gfci receptacles have the indicator light to show that they are working properly.
They are a bit slimmer than the original outlets and thus easy to install. The outlet is nice quality, and hold plugs securely. When you tighten the screw for the wire it pulls it, aiding in securing it.
The unit comes with a yellow sticker covering two contacts. The sticker informs you nicely to aid you in making sure you do not install this incorrectly. Comes with cover, screws for receptacle & cover, stickers for labeling purposes.
Cons
Non-tamper proof is actually the opposite of tamper proof. These are not compact at all. Totally wasted my time installing and now getting a refund.
Highlights
Quality
And leviton is a high quality product.
I feel comfortable with the brand and quality.
Same with the black, and boom, gfci reset.
This model is great bang for the buck.
Price
What can i say, this works as expected and good price.
Packaging/appearance
Brand new, with wall plate and screws, in good packaging and delivered in one day.
Competitiveness
I wouldn't waste my time installing a no-name brand, so leviton is my choice for switches and receptacles.
Bought it to replace a cheap, no-name brand that failed.
The most time-consuming part was figuring out what outlets are downstream of the first outlet in the circuit.
