4.0 out of 5 stars Midnight (black) wall plates look great, January 8, 2010

This review is from: Lutron SC-1-MN Claro Single-gang Wallplate Midnight (Tools & Home Improvement)

PROS: The "Midnight" (black) wall plate looks great (haven't seen/used many other colors) and once installed looks very clean - no screws, etc. Definitely an upgrade from "standard" grade wall plates.
CONS: The fit of the front plate to the backing plate is extremely snug and snapping the cover plate off requires some care and patience (and no long fingernails) Of course you should only need to do this once but if you resort to a flat blade screwdriver to pry the front cover off, be careful not to 'dent' or scratch the plastic base with the screwdriver blade.
NOTES: I've noticed pricing on these things varies widely (from $5.00 to $11.25 each) so it pays to shop around. We used these wall plates for all switches and outlets (13 total) in a "media room" with dark wall paint and found that we had trouble finding the light switches in the dark ("Midnight" is right). So we swapped out the 3 midnight black switch plates for the Lutron Claro Stainless Steel plates but kept the midnight black wall plates on the AC power receptacles. Problem solved (and the Stainless steel plates combined with the midnight switch mechanisms look great too)
OVERALL: very satisfied

It's a decorative plate. It has held up well so far (6 months). There are no visible screws which give looks nice in the room.

These are clean screwless switch/outlet plates that attach very easily. Because they are plastic it actually makes them easier to install with a nice tight fit to the wall.
