    I've lived in this house since 1977 and as one can imagine, I've installed a few switches. This particular GE switch seems to have a high degree of quality to it. It seems more sturdy and the switch action seems firmer or features a higher degree in its action or movement, less sloppiness I guess you could say.I'm very pleased with it as the price is quite good for it's quality.The switch conformed to the sellers description, it was very price appropriate, it exceeded my expectations and I like it just fine!Five Stars
