Push button switches (Uugh!)

These are great solutions to a very hard problem to solve. The issue is uniform quality. I purchased six switches for a job, and was disappointed that only three had what looked like mother of pearl inlays. Three were quite obviously injected plastic inserts which were trying to look the part. I could get by this, however, but I was dismayed that two out of six did not function, and I had to rebuild my brand new switches on the spot before I could finish the job. The failure was due to poor positioning of components inside the switch which was easily fixed, but usually would have set back a job two weeks or more in exchange processes. All are working satisfactorily at this time. It was refreshing to see a modern switch that was able to be taken apart and put back together easily, and will enable a cleaning or rebuild in the future.
push button switches...worth the money

We purchased an old Victorian that needed several new switches. We were pleased with these push button ones. They have a nice tight feeling and are right at home in our front room. Would purchase these again.
We'll see how they last over time...

I've installed a number of these switches in the house. I appreciate that they are available and that they can make early 20th century houses look more authenticate. They install easily and work fine, but they don't have a solid feel about them. One gets the sense the materials could be rethought to improve this. I also say this as I've notice that over less than a year the feel becomes less solid. I would only recommend this to other contractors only since I haven't found a better, more solid substitute.
Nostalgic piece

I love this product. Since it is new and functions on a spring, the old hard snap when switching is replace by a ping of the spring. However, we are all limited to the health and safety requisites. I will be purchasing five more in the future with the art deco plate covers.
Great push-button switches

We purchased the new push-button switches with solid brass plates and they look great and work almost like the old ones.
