Review: Lifesaver - These were a lifesaver. I updated the switches and plugs on a house built in 1970. There were 3 outlets in a room, all a slightly different height, and buried partway in a shelf. I brought the wires forward , mounted these on top of the shelves and it looks so nice. I hate having to cut wall plates. Especially 3 different sizes. There are several holes in the back of the box, and I was able to find the right hole configuration for each one to mount securely to the holes in the electrical box. I had to make a couple of the holes larger, which wasn't a problem since these are plastic. And no visible exterior knockouts. More room and flexibility than a wiremold extension box.
Review: Really cool - My first time using one of these and it was really easy. The cut outs pop out easily depending on what you need. The holes are predrilled and the box is get plastic. All of it was easy and I would highly recommend this

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best for under-cabinet wiring of LED lights
*by M***T on October 3, 2017*

Really shallow wiring boxes, like this, roughly an 1-1 1/2 inches deep, are ideal for special wiring under cabinets. Typically, the new LED light strips are about an inch thick and there is no room inside to wire heavy American grade copper wires (12 & 14 AWG) So, you have to wire the household wires to the lamp cord that most of these LED lights use. These boxes are ideal for hiding those loose wires and wire nut connections. You can easily hold one up and drill a pilot hole, before using a short wood screw (not included). The cover plate has longer 1 inch threaded acres to hold it on (the normal 1/4 inch screws won't work). The box is painted white enable, but easily repainted flat black, or any other color. CONS: The major problem with this box is the cut out. There are 3 at each end one one alone each long side. They can be snapped out with a pair of pliers, at two different points. A shallow and a deep tab are pre-stamped. But, they have sharp metal edges which are not suitable for un-armored cable, particularly lamp cord or house hold wires. These kits need some kind of plastic or rubber bushing to protect wires. The original design was to use proprietary metal surface mounted conduits, not un-protected wires. You can make a pretty good wire protector with a few wraps of electrical or friction tape. A flatter box would be more welcome something like 1/3" deep and standard junction box covers.
