The Leviton Decora 15 Amp Single-Pole Rocker Switch offers a quiet-operation, contemporary design in grey that can enhance your home's interior. A matching Decora wall plate (not included) can be used to complete the appearance. The switch is UL listed and has convenient push-in wiring for easy replacement of almost any standard, single-pole switch.
They have a decent feel to the switch, but it was irritating to see that the company puts its name on the bottom visible part of the switch. It's not easy to see in the picture unless you zoom in. Why would I want a company's name on my individual home features?

Good Value & Well Made
I replaced all my remaining non-automated, toggle-style switches with these inexpensive rocker-style from Leviton. That includes single pole, 3-way and one 4-way. All feature the same side screws that permit hooked or straight wiring to the screws. The straight option is great when there are two wires going to one screw for any reason. I don't use push-type connections although they are available. I just don't think there is enough metal-to-metal contact for good conductance. All these switches make a slight click when operated but nothing offensive in my opinion. You save a great deal by not going for the ultra-silent switches. The only question I have in my mind is why the ground wire is at the top of the switch when the Leviton logo is on the bottom and the switch is properly oriented for on/off operation. Traditionally, that screw is at the bottom from past experience. It is merely a matter of curiosity on my part not that it makes any difference electrically. Leviton duplex outlets do have the ground screw on the bottom when the ground is facing down. I wonder if Leviton has the line-terminal-up & load-terminal-down practice with this orientation in mind. Would like to see a Leviton person comment.

Easy update - love the look
Recently decided to change out all of the old style plugs and switches for Decora style and love the updated look. These are SUPER easy to install, especially using the quick wire push-in option, but there are plenty of videos online for guidance. Paired these with the screwless, snap-on wall plates to complete the sleek look.

Easy to Install and Looks Good
These Leviton Decora quiet light switches install super easy, especially if it's an even swap, and they're extra quiet when it comes to flipping them on and off.

I like the smooth look of the screwless switch cover over this standard rocker switch. This was a very easy replacement of a standard single pole switch. There is a small click turning the switch on and off so it is not silent but it is quiet. If you are replacing a standard size switch cover, you shouldn't have the paint chips that I did because I replaced a larger size decorative cover.

Leviton (decora) rocker light switch. This was very easy to install. Turn off your power and disconnect your old switch. My home was built in the 1950's with old noisy switches. The old switch did not have a ground wire, but good heavy cooper wiring. Connected the new switch with the wiring as directed in the directions (less the ground wire). Remounted the switch. Turned the breaker back on and it worked.

Gives an updated look and are easier to turn on because you just push lightly instead of pull up. We painted our crown moulding white and installing all white Decora plates and switches makes everything looks fresh and crisp. Made a huge difference in the room. The 10-pack was economical.

Great product, easy to install. These are a great replacement for the standard white switch. I like that they have this color, as it works great as an accent for a white room with a gray accent wall. I wish that they would not emboss the name Leviton on the surface of the switch itself. I have install a similar white one that seems to collect smudges and dirt on the embossed name.

Before purchasing and starting the install, make sure to understand your home's 3-way switch architecture. How the wires are set up will have an impact on which wires are connected to the common and traveler terminals. Having purchased my house with the three-way switches already in place, it took a large chunk of the effort and time to figure out and verify the wiring architecture for my system, especially by opening up the other switch to verify which wires were the travelers versus the ones going to the lights.
Once I verified the wiring architecture, the install probably took approximately 30-40 minutes (2 switches: Leviton rocker switches with and without dimmer), primarily to install and repack the stiff wires neatly. DON'T FORGET TO SHUT OFF THE BREAKER FOR THE SWITCH; THIS IS A FATAL SAFETY PREVENTATIVE!
Once installed, the products worked well. The switch without the dimmer is an easy on/off with a solid click to ensure it is firmly in the on or off position. The switch with the dimmer worked just the same with the added benefit of a vertically sliding dimmer on the right hand side, which worked great.
In addition, I received the matching switch plate coverings, which look very crisp and modern. However, my setup includes 3 switches including a variable fan switch so I couldn't install the switch plates. I have ordered the right part from Leviton so I expect it will look great when it arrives.
One caveat I have with this specific model is that the gray doesn't match perfectly with my family room. It doesn't look bad but I would recommend planning out your color coordination to make sure you get the right color switch.
