IMO, back-stab receptacles are a fire waiting to happen. I
can't believe they are even legal.

My personal choice is to buy high-quality back-wire
receptacles and use the receptacle as a daisy chain
junction.

Note: Quality back-wire receptacles allow you to put two
wires under one screw so that your downstream outlet current
isn't flowing through the jumper tab.

That is what I did. I replace all the residential grade outlets in my
house with quality commercial grade outlets. The are still backstab,
at least sort of. The wire is straight and it slides in a slot under
the screw. Just stick the wire in and tighten down the screw.
