Customer Review: Nice, but could be better.
Summary: 3 Stars
I stumbled across this item while doing some research for installing an outlet behind our wall-mounted tv. Overall, it's not a bad unit, but it could be improved. As noted by another reviewer, this box is more of a "new-work" box, but it doesn't have nails, it has screws, so it's not hard to use as an "old-work" box. The only limitation is that you have a stud in the vicinity of where you want to install it. Another limiting factor that I found was that you cannot removed the outlet from the faceplate, and if you use the screws to attach your wires (which I did because I was using 12/2 wire) you cannot access the hot-side screws once you install the keystones on the opposite side. The only other thing that I didn't like about the design was the molded in spikes where the wire comes into the box. There's not much room to squeeze your wires back into and this feature restricts your wire from sliding back out of the box a little. I know, that's what they're designed to do, but when you're trying to working with A/V connections on the opposite side it helps if you can have some extra wire to pull the unit out from the wall a little. Now, as for the A/V side, the box in the back has the same openings as the electrical side. Not bad if you're just doing some speaker wires, but if you're doing RCA plugs, or worse, HDMI cables, you'll have to enlarge the holes for the cable ends to pass through. I ended up cutting the entire back off of the box on that side so I had unrestricted access like any other low-voltage application. Oh yeah, even though I love Amazon, this item is readily available at any Home Depot for about the same price.
