Solid product - Good instructions & Slim Profile
I recently upgraded several outdated, ungrounded outlets in my older home with the ELEGRP 15 Amp GFCI outlets, and was quite satisfied with them. While ungrounded wiring isn’t ideal, we're renting and these GFCI outlets offer a little safety upgrade and allow us to use 3 prong plugs where needed.Pros:Slim Design for Tight Spaces: The thinner design of the ELEGRP GFCI outlets made installation smooth, even in small, outdated outlet boxes. They fit perfectly where other outlets might be a tight squeeze, which was a huge plus for me.User-Friendly Installation: The instructions included with these outlets are clear and detailed, making it easy to understand how to identify your line vs. load wires. This is especially helpful for those who may not be as familiar with electrical work.Sleek Screwless Faceplates: I wasn’t sure I’d like the screwless faceplates at first, even after the first couple of installs. But, after getting used to them I like them a lot. They provide a clean, modern look, snap on easily, and elevate the overall appearance of the outlets.Self-Test Functionality: The built-in self-test feature adds peace of mind, ensuring the outlet functions correctly and providing enhanced safety for everyday use.Extra Installation Tips:Have Wire Nuts Ready: Although wire nuts aren’t required for the install (and ideally shouldn't be used), having some on hand can help you easily determine your line vs. load wires. This ensures the installation goes quickly and easily.Follow the Instructions Carefully: The line vs. load setup was reversed compared to my older Leviton two-prong outlets, but following the instructions step-by-step resolved any confusion.Overall, the ELEGRP GFCI Outlet is a fantastic option for modernizing old outlets. Its combination of easy installation, sleek design, and built-in safety features make it a top choice for both DIYers and professionals.Key Highlights:- Slim design fits easily into smaller outlet boxes- Clear instructions make identifying line vs. load wires straightforward- Screwless faceplates add a sleek, modern touch- Self-test feature ensures the outlet is always working correctly- Tamper-resistant for added safety, perfect for households with kidsI’ll definitely be purchasing more of these GFCI outlets for future electrical projects. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their home’s outlets with a safe, modern solution!

Half the cost and worth it, no problems
Great value and no problems. I'm a electrical contractor and have been installing these for a couple years. I have had no issues or call backs by my customers. Some of the three star reviews should be ignored. #12 wires fit just fine, cords plug into them fine, all tamper recpetacles are a bit of a pain. Great value in the 9-11 dollar range compared to spending $18-20 for the standard big manufacturers. Good value for my customers. The reset button is easy to reset compared to some. There is a indicator light on when operating and not tripped (green light). I buy the 10 packs all the time.

Nice replacement for old-school white ones.
Nice outlet covers. Change up from the standard white ones. Doesn’t seem to fit quite flushed to the wall, but that may be something on my end. Good quality.

Perfect!
At first I thought it wasn’t working because I was hooking it up wrong. You have to make sure you use the line not load side. It is smaller than most so it fit in perfectly.

End of Life indicator light - brilliant!
I recently learned that GFCI outlets don't last forever. They have a use life of about 10 years. I wish someone had told me that a few years ago when all my GFCIs in the house started tripping. We bought this house 13 years ago, and I think we've worn out the existing GFCIs.Besides the slim size, what attracted me to this model was that there is a indicator light on the face of the plate to let you know when the unit needs to be replaced. So simple!The contactor was able to install these quickly and I have not tripped the GFCI once in 3 weeks, which is unusual. Very satisfied with this brand and the features that are on this model. I highly recommend them.

Faulty Outlets. Never worked
I had high hopes for these after reading reviews. Had these installed by a license electrician and they did not work. LED would light up green and provide power downstream to other outlets but BOTH of them in the pack would not supply power to its own outlet. Spent hours. Had to go to Home Depot and get 2 Levington GFCI and they worked right away! Didn't bother returning and just used the cover plates on the Home Depot outlets. Waste of money and most of all my time.
