does not stand up to use
I installed this work box for a wall light.
When I came back to install the light fixture onto the work box, the box was loose and I find one of the nail flanges had broken off.
Lucky for me the back side of the wall had not been taped yet so I didn’t have to demo the drywall.
I purchased a new box and the nail flange broke again. Surely they understand the nail is going to be hammered into place. I screwed directly through the inside of the box into the stud to secure it.
I installed the wall light and 5 months later I see the fixture hanging at a odd angle.
On inspection I find both the box screw mounts have broken off.
I have never had this issue with plastic outlet boxes before.
I would not use this manufacture’s product if this is the material quality to be expected.

I needed to put up a light in my work show so I choose this for the base.
it worked great, no complaints, I did not use the captive nails I used 2 screws in the base to go into a wood beam.

Works good
Our hall only has one light at the front of it near the stairs and we have a long hall and needed some light at the end of the hall. So it was easy enough to install since I can access the ceiling from the attic. The wiring was a different story. So overall it works well for my needs
