Great profile , quality needs a bit of updateThe product has great potential . The profile fits perfectly on the island. I purchased two stainless steel boxes, slim fit and larger that fits GFCI outlet. The stainless steel option has a cover that is made of plastic that is fitted with metal overlay, which makes it very delicate. I had to reorder larger box because it came with cover that had a broken plastic piece. The return was very easy and I got the second box. Unfortunately replacement also came with a plastic piece that was broken off. Because I really like the design I kept it this time and had to improvise using a tiny nail. I kept it because it is hard to find similar product that is decently priced these days and little fix hides well and makes the design stronger (since it uses stainless steel nails for pivots).The slim fit works perfectly with the standard (not GFCI) outlet even with 12 gauge wires. There is enough space to install outlet and wires. I used Eaton silver outlet to help the entire unit bland in.Dry fit of GFCI outlet looks like it is going to fit into larger profile box option.All in all good product. I do hope the manufacturer changes the cover of stainless steel version to option that at least uses metal parts for pieces that server a purpose of closing the box and for round hinges/pivot points.

Almost goodThese need work and are over priced. Under cabnet above the counter is where they are installed. 12 gauge wire for kitchen, 20 amp circuits. There is some difficulty stuffing a slim GFCI receptacle onto those boxes. You really need to mold the wire around the receptacle. As one person already stated, and backed up with a photo the hinge of the cover will break off. I received four or so boxes and found two with the hinge already broken. Luckily the retaining screws hold the cover on. All and all close but not quite. Good for non GFCI receptical.

Even USB outlets fit in the box.The builder installed shallow boxes which USB outlets didn’t fit inside. Because of that I bought this box which my usb outlets fits perfectly.

Great Box, Steep PriceI purchased these for our new home to go under the cabinets instead of placing outlets in the backsplash. They fit under the cabinets great and are hidden from view. My only complaint is the price. $30 per box is way overpriced but I couldn’t find an alternative at the time.

Great productThese are a great, high quality product. My wife wanted under cabinet outlets in our new kitchen and I really couldn’t find a good option out there. There are the legrand plugmold strips but the reviews aren’t great for those and I wanted something with an angle to it. I bought the slim fit version and I was able to fit a Leviton GFCI outlet in one of them (which then cascaded to the others. I won’t lie … getting everything wired into the box while working upside down under the cabinet, along with drilling a minimal hole in the drywall to pull wire through was quite the chore. Probably took 10x longer than doing regular wall outlets using old-work boxes. The cost is obviously significantly higher than standard wall outlets. But the product is solid and we’re happy with the results. I’ve attached a few photos of the product alongside my setup for under-cabinet lighting.

Great way mount plugs under cabinets.The unit will fit a regular or GFI plug and can be mounted in 2 positions to either hang down below the cabinet or mount more flush. The fit and finish are good quality. I used this on a kitchen where I didn’t want plugs in the tile backsplash and these were a good budget friendly solution.

Fantastic, but won’t take ‘deep’ plugs.Man, I love these. I wanted something with a slight angle to use under cabinets and hide the outlets, yet be easy to get to for use. These are high quality and installed very easily. I used 12/2 and had no problem getting a regular sized outlet and the wire in the box. I do wish the mounting screws were self drilling, but I just used some that I had on hand.Just an FYI, there isn’t room for a deep plug. I was excited to use a plug that had both types of usb ports as well as two outlets, but it was ‘boxy’ and too deep. The fixture wouldn’t close so I had to go back to the store and get regular plugs. I’ll trade the slimness and ability to hide the outlets over depth so I’m all good, but if you are planning to use those deeper outlets, get something else.
