Amazon Customer: Ok, just address a couple of complaints I see in other reviews. First, there is nothing wrong with the screws on this receptacle. They use the hybrid screws (flat/phillips/square) that are common in the electric world. Do like the electricians do and use a square drive bit. You'll have no issues and can get a good clamp on the wire (which should be inserted in the back of the receptacle, not wrapped around the screw). Second, while they are much safer, tamper resistant receptacles are a bit tricky at times. Just angle the plug side to side if you have trouble. Don't force it straight in.

David F. Wood: Lots of problems with this product. 1.) It is huge. It completely filled one side of a standard two gang box. No room for additional wiring or twist caps behind/around it. Especially given the size of wire for the rated amperage. 2.) The slots in the heads of the terminal screws are too wide and shallow. None of my phillips would engage, and only one of my standard screwdrivers, and that only barely. The result was that it was VERY difficult to cinch down onto the wires, which kept popping out. There wasn't room around the screw shaft to hook the wires either. 3.) One of the screws was stripped. They all arrived screwed down too tight, but that one just spun stiffly in place.

I wasted too much time trying to get the thing in a box that already had a couple splices in it, then having the wires pop out, out of sight. I finally gave up when I realized that one screw would never open to get the wire into the back. I'm sending it back for a Leviton slim line. Meantime, I have a standard outlet wired and hanging out of the wall. Grrr.

DK: Simple, cheap, works well. Installed without a problem. The screws are a bit of a pain because you have to have them pointed downwards because they kinda free float. Quality product though. Outlet is a little thick.

LDO: So far so good (one month). I installed this on an outdoor deck that is on the ocean front. No matter what brand (I have not used Bybon before), they all have failed after a few years. But at $10, if this one fails, I can by two more for the price that I pay elsewhere. Build quality is excellent. I actually took one apart to compare to a big box store and they look identical. There are two lights on the front. Green and red. The directions are very clear as to what the lighted colors mean when they come on. I will update this review should anything change, or if it makes it past the average fail time.
