Lever Edge 15 Amp Single Pole Rocker Switch, 10-Pack, E5601-MW, White

I am a big fan of the Leviton lever edge system. All system components feel well made and to be of quality materials. The system accepts both 14 gauge and 12 gauge wiring. The system is easy to use: strip the wire to length, insert it in the back of the switch/outlet body and place the switch body into the receptacle box. If you want to revise the installation, removal of the wire is as easy as flip the lever and the wire is freed. I especially appreciate that there are NO metallic hot points exposed on the product. You don't have to worry about keeping the ground wires away from side screws, or grabbing onto a hot screw when pulling the unit out of the receptacle box.

I am sold on this product. It is high quality in every way. Of course the lever (wago style) crimp wire design was the big draw and they do indeed hold strong. However, I also appreciated the engineered mounting screws stay anchored to the switch yet can be nudged into place without issue. This greatly helps ease the installation process - good job Leviton. The price for what you get makes it an excellent value. I used 14 AWG.

These lines of outlets and switches are so much easier to wire than switches and outlets requiring loops. Remember that these are light duty residential hardware, they are lightweight and cheaply made. A great feature is a larger than normal flange which helps with sunken electrical boxes. Electrical stuff does not use normal Philips or flathead screws, but a strange combination of a Philips and a square drive. I mainly used a S1 bit, but noticed that it didn't fit well, even though S1 bits fit older hardware very well. I discovered that the best fitting bit is a Bosch P2R2 bit, which is a combination of a Philips #2 and a Robertson R1 bit. Robertson and Square are related but not the same. And for some strange reason they use R2 instead of R1 in the name. A R2 bit does not fit but a R1 does fit. If you want a more rugged and better built outlet try the Levition Heavy Duty line, but they are twice as expensive. They are very weighty and solid compared to the Lever line. They do not require a wire loop on the white or black side, you slide a straight bare wire under a square washer and cinch down the screw. The ground lug requires a wire loop.

This is a fine product and works well. These also work with the screwless wall plates, just break off the tabs, and all will be well.

Easy to install as it is just pushing in the wires and snapping a tab to clamp down on each wire. Anyone can install these. Quick too.

I've used Leviton switches for forever and the build-quality is always high. I particularly like the durability of these "Decora" paddle-style switches; other brands fail at the center pivot (see red arrow in photo), but not these. The lever-based wiring connections on these couldn't be easier to use and the wide flanges on the switch body make aligning multiple switches in a large gang box a breeze. Definitely Recommended for DIYers.

After recently buying an older home, it needed some updating to replace the original 1950s Leviton switches. It was only fitting to put the best and newest switches in their place. These Decora Edge switches make installing a breeze. The lever terminals are super convenient for setting your wiring in and pushing the lever shut. No more wrapping the wire carefully around a screw and tightening it. The added convenience of having a strip gauge takes the guess work out of how much wire you'll need for your connections. Additionally, these switches are very quiet and switch very smoothly with minimal sound. That's a stark contrast to the original switches which made a significant snap sound each time they were used. The marketing pictures show 'Push, Click, Done' and it's truly as simple as that. I'm by no means an electrician, but these switches made the install much easier and gave me more peace of mind. They also look fantastic with the screwless faceplates. I would highly recommend these switches.

I wish I had known about them earlier; these are the best switches to install, as the terminals are not exposed. They even fit next to each other through a built-in spacer so there is no puzzling to put the wall plate on. Use the Wago or ideal nuts and you also do not have to deal with the screw wire nuts. I got to appreciate them even more as I decided to replace an installed one with a dimmer, and that was super easy: take out the switch, open the levels, put the new dimmer in, and put it in the wall. If you replace light switches, go with them.

Práctico apagador.

Ideal for replacing many switches at once, takes about 15 seconds each compared to traditional receptacles. The bottom tab is a bit hard to break off so is recommended to do that before putting wires in.

The mechanism for the wire connection is good. Super easy to use. I find the switch itself kind of “soft”, especially going to the “on” position.

Chintzy construction.
