Review: Easy to fit, looks great in the kitchen
Review: I’d been searching everywhere for black double screwless switches, and the prices were all over the place. When I ordered some faceplates from this brand, I decided to add these switches to the order as well — and I’m really glad I did. They arrived quickly, the quality is excellent, and they were very easy to fit. The screwless design is a huge bonus, as it lets you do all the wiring first and then simply clip the front plate on, completely avoiding any chance of scratches. After trying both the switches and the faceplates, I’d recommend this brand to anyone. Great quality, great price, and I’ll definitely be ordering more.
