I don't know why people keep picking on walmart in particular. It's
no different than the supermarket chains, or any other large chain.

Plus, back stab receptacles have been around a lot longer than
Wal-mart has.


Sure but the discussion involves poor quality. Take a look at the
older version of a lot of stuff and the current version.


to be fair, backstab receptacles always sucked.


IMHO the people that should be stabbed in the back area are at UL that
allows these atrocities. At least you can't use #12 wire anymore.
