GE Grounded On/Off Power Switch, Plug-In, White, Energy Efficient, Space Saving Design, UL Listed, 15A, 120VAC, 1800W, 25511

Quite good as these devices go. A little pricey (here at least) and doesn't have an "On" indicator light. But other than that, quite serviceable. A few things I like about it: * When placed in a wall socket, the switch is up for on, down for off; like a wall switch. This makes it possible to tell if it's on or off from across the room. I prefer an indicator lamp for this job, one that stands out when you turn off the room lights as you leave the room to remind you you forgot something, but this is a pretty good second best. * In addition to the easy-to-remember switch position indication, on and off are indicated by molded-in on/off text by the switch and the switch rocker itself has a tactile bump on the on side. So if you're up close, it's easy to tell what you're doing and you could even turn it on or off in the dark I suppose :) (or perhaps behind something that blocks line of sight) * It has "finger grip" curves molded into the top and bottom of the case, allowing you to hold it securely in the wall socket when removing a plug. This is handy if you're using it for different items from time to time, as I do, on what's basically a test bench. * The build quality is high. The plastic is tough and the switch operation is decisive and sure. I don't think you could get the switch to stick in the middle if you tried. The switch actuation pressure is a good balance between so easy you could disturb it by brushing up against it and so hard you have to put your shoulder into it to generate the force to turn it on or off. Deliberate finger pressure does the job just fine. * The socket holds the plug blades firmly. So I'm confident it will hold up and not accidentally burn the house down. * I find the GE brand comforting. I know it's actually made in China, so call me a fool if you want, but the fact GE stakes its brand on the quality makes me think they're keeping an eye on what's coming out of the factory and that it's probably pretty darn reliable. * I don't need a lot of these, I only need the one. So paying a bit more for one I can count on indefinitely seems a good value to me.

I have a pole lamp with three bulbs that each have their own on/off switch, but I mostly use it for room lighting and want all 3 lights on. It was getting tiresome having to always turn on 3 switches, then turn off 3 switches. I had an older outlet switch similar to this one but because of the orientation of the prongs, it wouldn't fit where this lamp is plugged in. So I was happy to see that they are being made in different orientations. This orientation worked perfectly for my lamp. It might not work perfectly for you - it all depends on your outlet and which side you want the on/off switch, so pay attention to that. Somebody complained either for this one or a similar one that the on/off positions are reversed from what they expect. I’m very much a creature of habit, and the on/off positions seem normal to me. If you want to be able to easily tell by a glance whether it’s on or off, I suggest marking it with Magic Marker, including on the side of the switch. When used for a lamp, it’s simple enough to feel for the side of the switch that is up and press it down. You don’t have to memorize which side is on and which side is off. It’s just a toggle. Press whichever side is poking up to switch it either on or off. These switches seem perfectly fine but I can't judge longevity at this point. The older ones I have, have lasted for decades, with mostly intermittent use and with low wattage items. I am expecting the same, we'll see.

Would had liked to have the option to get these with having the switch on the other side but i get what they were doing when they were designing these. And i decided on this option where it doesn't light up as the things i intend to use it on are things i would only use temporarily and would light up on their own just by being plugged into power. Other than that, i love these things and while i've not had them for too long i'm not concerned about their durability, and they do exactly what i need to have done without an annoying light being emitted.

Can't really tell how well this is working as far as not having any charge when it is turned off. We have an air fryer that says when not in use, turn it off, unplug it.Well , that's what I got this for and so far , so good

They work just fine, but you really can’t use them as often as you may think because they would only be practical mostly in the kitchen where you have a variety of outlets at counter height. Most homes have outlets elsewhere closer to the floor, so it’s too much of a pain to have to bend over to turn these on or off with a floor outlet.

I got this for my partner because a lamp he uses by his favorite chair is awkward for him to turn off, especially since he has arthritis in his hands. We have an outlet very close on a bookcase near the lamp that we plugged this switch into. Sooo much easier for him to shut off the lamp. I may get more for other lamps!

I got tired of unplugging and plugging in my coffee maker and air fryer on a daily basis. Not any more, just a flip of the switch and I’m good to go. When your appliances are plugged into these and turned off, there is no power draw. I would definitely recommend these power switches.

Works great instead of having to unplug it we just hit the off on button😊

Excelente prodcuto.

These are great for on off toggle switches and I have many of them so I can leave items plugged in but off!

Love this switch. Wish I had known there was such a device a long time ago. We had a kettle that does not have a switch which meant we had to plug and unplug all the time. This switch make things so much easier. Device is small and easy to use. For the price, really worth it, especially when it came in a four pack.

Buen producto. Cumple con su función, se siente de buena calidad.
