I would look for other options before buying this

Comments:

The mother of pearl insets came off two of the switches within days of use. One I found and glued back on, the other is missing. Overall, it looks great and functions well, but the loss of the inset and the implied quality is concerning.

I would ot buy it again.

Comments:

Switch is used on a closet off master bedroom. Switch is so loud to turn off it wakes anyone asleep in the bedroom. It was used to replace a previous button switch (made in Taiwan) from another supplier. It wore out after 20+ years and was replaced with the Prange switch.

I would purchase for this company again.

It's a push button light switch. Uh, duh! Press the upper button to turn the light on, and press the lower button to turn the light off.

inlay falls off after very few uses

Bought a bunch of these, the mop inlay has fallen off almost all of them, disappointed

It works.

Just like Nana's house

Comments:

Recently bought a pre civil war home in PA and wanted the feel of my Nana's house which is my fondest childhood memory. I will gradually replace every light switch in the house with these push button switches and feel a little of that warmth and love I remember every time I use them.

Just like the first ones!

Comments:

Our house was built in 1891. Switches that look like the ones I just bought from House of Antique Hardware were installed when they converted the house to electricity. It was only right that I replace old ones plus ""modern"" ones from previous ""renovations"" with what the house is comfortable with (and wiring that I am comfortable with). My electrician was amazed. They are exactly right, down to the substantial mother of pearl inlay and decided ""click."" And the quality is better and the price is lower than others I've looked at; how good is that? I've already recommended them to a friend.

Just what I had been searching for!

Comments:

Was helping my Mother find and replace some light switching for her old home. She didn't want to change to a more modern switch so asked me to help her find some to match what she already has. Was very happy to find your website and switches that match what she had exactly!

Look Good but Sound Not So good

Comments:

These switches look as good as the originals, but lack the reassuring ""thunk"" of the old ones when they are switched off and on. These make more of a ""twang"" noise when switched off - and they're almost silent when turned on. Maybe the premium switches sound better, and I should have paid the extra four dollars. Overall, I like the look but cringe when I hear the noise they make when pushed off and on.
