I've purchased several Leviton 15A GFCI outlets (GFTR1-W) from Amazon since they tend to be cheaper than my local big box store. Every unit I've installed has worked flawlessly. The self-test feature and LED indicator provide peace of mind, and the tamper-resistant design adds an extra layer of safety.I installed this in my kitchen and needed an outlet for a television, so I bridged off an existing GFCI nearby. Everything worked as expected, and installation was straightforward. Overall, a reliable and cost-effective choice for GFCI protection

Good switch with really good directions for installation. Easy to connect the wires to the GFCI switch. The test switch worked fine. Really happy with the item.

I replaced my entire downstairs floor with this product, and I'm thoroughly impressed. The result is neat and elegant. Highly recommended for its quality and price!

Bought this to replace my other GFCI that tripped and could not be reset. I almost bought the cheapest Amazon Basics one, but for the very reasonable Amazon price, I purchased a Leviton, which is a very reliable name. I like the LED light on the bottom, my old one didn't have one. Installed very easily and the fit was nice. Make sure you turn your power to the outlet off. My panel is badly labeled, so I just turned off the ENTIRE power to the panel, to make 100% sure it was off.

I installed this on the line in a 2-gang box in the bathroom and used a USB outlet as the load off of it. The little nightlights are great and it works perfectly. Very happy.

Good outlet and night light. I agree with another reviewer that the color temperature of the night light should be warm, not cold bluish white light. Most other plug-in night lights are warm.Also, I did not realize until I installed it that the LED indicator is always on to indicate that the outlet is active and working properly. You can see this in the product images and photos for other reviews. On this outlet it is a white LED, and when it is tested by pressing the button, the light turns off. According to the instructions, the LED will turn red (solid or flashing) when there is a problem or the outlet needs to be replaced. On my other GFCI outlets (Legrand), it’s reversed. The indicator light is off when the outlet is working properly, and it only turns on (red) when the outlet is tripped or tested (solid on) or needs to be replaced (flashing). I prefer the latter. The always-on LED is distracting in my opinion.Plus, the test and reset buttons are easier to press on the Legrand. With the Leviton, I had to really sink my finger on the button, and I have skinny fingers. If you have large fingers, you might need a screwdriver or some other object to press the buttons.I decided to compare the light intensity of the Leviton night light GFCI with the comparable Legrand night light GFCI. The Leviton has two lights, and light comes through the rest of the fixture. The Legrand has one light, and there is no light coming through the rest of the fixture. See photos. Both were taken with an iPhone 12 Pro Max with the extra exposure time turned off.Even though the Leviton has two lights, the Legrand is a bit brighter. I noticed this in person, since I installed one right after the other. Hopefully the photos illustrate it as well (tried to use the same settings).Since my other GFCIs around the house are Legrand, and I prefer having the indicator off, and the buttons are easier to press, I’m going with that one. If you want the receptacle slots to light up, or if you prefer having the indicator on, those are the only real advantages I see with the Leviton.

As usual, the switch feels robust and, if you've installed these type of devices before, it's just as easy. Keep in mind these protected plugs are huge compared to regular ones, so the struggle to install is the same.The our detail I have, which is not too bad, is that it is a little tricky to get right because of the safety guard it comes with. See the image it has no visible screws? That.

I live in Canada and discovered that the electrical codes are different from US. In the US, when you replace a receptacle on a circuit that should be AFCI protected, you have to install one of these as the replacement, or upstream of the replacement. In Canada, only if you extend the wiring. In any event I installed one at the most-upstream receptacle of all of my indoor circuits, and they work fine. Pricey, but cheaper than a new breaker panel full of AFCIs.Here's the US NEC:406.4(D) (4) Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter Protection. Where a receptacle outlet is supplied by a branch circuit that requires arc-fault circuit interrupter protection as specified elsewhere in this Code, a replacement receptacle at this outlet shall be one of the following: (1) A listed outlet branch circuit type arc-fault circuit interrupter receptacle (2) A receptacle protected by a listed outlet branch circuit type arc-fault circuit interrupter type receptacle (3) A receptacle protected by a listed combination type arc-fault circuit interrupter type circuit breaker Exception: Non-grounding type receptacle(s).Here's the Canada (Ontario) requirement, per the Safety Authority:--- (AskESA) 1/29/2020 9:56:35 AMIn the Ontario Electrical Safety Code (OESC), the rule that mandates the AFCI protection is a branch circuit rule. It doesn't apply when changing the receptacle. Tamper resistant receptacles would be required as Rule 26-708 applies to the receptacle.So I spent a bunch of $$$ that wasn't required (in Canada), but you can't put a price on safety.I have not experienced any false trips, notwithstanding all the horror stories you see on the web. I have an ancient treadmill that dims the lights when you start it -- no trip. I have an ancient freezer -- no trip. Fluorescent lights -- no trip. Sump pump -- no trip.I also bought an arc fault tester, and they do trip when I press the AFCI test button.So I fee protected.P.S. There is a dual AFCI/GFCI for about the same price, if you want that. GFCIs do trip now and then, for example, on power restore after a power outage. I have not experienced this with AFCI.P.P.S. These AFCIs have no ground-fault protection at all. Some other breakers have high-current GFI. So you can use with shared-neutral circuits.
