Good reliable brand
Old usb ports in outlet stopped working. Got a lot of use. Got this 2 type usb conecction and it works great. I feel confident this will last for awhile before replacing.

It's chonky...
This thing is CHONKY. Very deep. I was installing this in a receptacle box from 1980. Those boxes were TINY, and considering it had 3 Romex wires already in there, all 12 gauge, there was no way I could fit this thing in that box.So I ended up getting a 2 gang box, and used Wago wire nuts to take up as little space as possible. Once I had all that in place, it was super easy to install. It comes with its own wires sticking out, which are easy to use with a wire nut, but less convenient (in my opinion) than just using the traditional screw terminal.USB C charging speed is very fast (by my standards) and I'm quite satisfied with the product overall. It's kinda spendy, but worth doing if you need both USB and GFCI protection in one device.Important: The USB C is not powerful enough to charge a laptop. I knew this already, just warning you not to make a mistake. If you need to charge a laptop, get one that offers 60w charging.Cheers.

Solves the "where's my charger?" question
I've purchased 3 of these outlets.For the price of a good USB laptop charger, you get 2x USB chargers and 2x standard electrical outlets.Unlike most outlets with USB-C ports, this device can charge your laptops (yes, including macbooks) in addition to lower-power devices like phones. It may not charge your laptop as quickly as a manufacturer's charger, but it does get the job done.Easy to install. It is slightly deeper than a regular outlet, so fitting it into a shallow wall box can be little tight, but careful routing of wires inside the box works even in very tight spaces.

Acceptable. Better than 3 stars but less than 5 stars. Beware of design.
Some things to recognize when purchasing these. The grey color is very grey, and nearly charcoal grey. Unfortunately, they did not match the light grey ones I bought and installed 10 years ago. I'm not sure why that color is no longer offered. The brown colored one I bought was very nicely 'brown' in color, though.Also, bear in mind this product is rather beefy, so it may fit very snuggly into your existing box.I have one outlet I wanted to install this in that gets operated by a wall switch, but felt I should leave that up to an electrician to figure out.There are some really nice screwed connections on this, unlike the kind where you have to make a loop and wrap around a screw and tighten down. There are no speed connectors (which I'm told you shouldn't use anyway, but I generally do).I did not 'test' the power outlet like some other reviews had. I figure it's charging my devices quite nicely, so they must be working well, I guess.The design with these are somewhat of a problem. Look, just like you can't haul a boat with a Volkswagen Beetle, you can't have everything with this type of outlet. i.e. if you have a lamp timer or some device like Alexa that requires a larger power adaptor on the wall, it will essentially block access to the USB ports. I don't know how to bypass this design. Just recognize that if you intend to plug in something larger than a standard sized plug, it will impede access to the USB charging ports.I somewhat wished I knew that in advance...just so that I wasn't surprised after installation. No biggie, for me.I think it was rather expensive, compared to the price of standard receptacles. Is it worth four times the price just to have USB charging access points? Maybe. Maybe not, but it's very convenient these days.

Quite a tight fit - but works great
Was looking for an outlet with USB ports since we got toothbrush chargers with USB plugs, and usually charge our watches (more USB plugs) when in the shower. One receptacle we wanted to change was GFCI - so this was the result of asking "can you even get a GFCI receptacle with USB charging ports?". A little brand bias - All my receptacles and switches are Leviton.Installing was a little tight - this thing is large - thankfully the box I was installing it into was a pretty decent size. Combine the tight space with 12 ga wiring, and in/out wires to the box - yeah - it was a little tight.Tested it with a socket tester - GFCI works well. USB charging works well.

It worked properly
So much easier to just plug in the USB charger chord for my devices then having to use the power brick and outlet piece. And with 2 ports I can charge my phone and my camera simultaneously. My electrician said it was a good idea and had no trouble installing it.

Convenient upgrade for work areas
Excellent product, and no mor looking for a charger end.Of note, make sure you have room on the electrical box as these take substantially more space than a standard outlet. If you have a standard depth box and more than 2 wires entering into it I don't think it would fit.

Cargador de 30W que permite la carga rápida e inalambica en celulares y tablets.
El precio de este cargador está por encima de la mayoría de los que se ofertan en Amazon, pero vale la pena porque permite la carga rápida y la inalámbrica de celulares y tabletas (es de 30W). Es importante aclarar que los contactos USB son de tipo C y que se requiere comprar por separado la placa (o cubierta) de la misma marca. Se instala fácilmente. Sugiero estar al pendiente de los descuentos porque si los hay y pueden ayudar a reducir el costo de la inversión.

Funcional
Fácil de instalar, funciona muy bien he tenido ocupado un tomacorriente y los puertosa y c, simultáneamente sin afectar la carga de los dispositivos (Android, Apple, reloj, inteligente) hasta el momento sin problemas. Un poco molesto tener que comprar la placa por separado.
