### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Value for money
*by M***U on 4 January 2026*

Nice product and looking great in our new toilet. Main benefit for me, I can charge my electric brush from this. Brilliant quality and fit for purpose.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good quality would highly recommend

Nice and shiny very happy with my purchase will be ordering more

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks good and feels reassuringly solid
*by A***E on 29 June 2021*

I bought this switch recently to replace an older one which had failed. That was unbranded and had been fitted to the house when I bought it, and I'd like to think that this one from an established brand will be better. It feels well-made and is nicely designed with the screws accessible on the back, and I like that they can be firmly tightened without fear of the metal shearing. The switch looks great too and apart from some greasy marks when I first installed it I'm impressed that the polished chrome finish has stayed clean ever since, without the problem of showing fingerprints on the shiny surface. I'd have no qualms in buying another of these switches - recommended.
