Default Sonoff - dangerous?

I've replaced the lights under our kitchen cupboards with LED strips,
and I'm stupidly pleased with myself. The old ones were all individually
switched, which was a faff. The new ones are switched by Sonoff wifi
switches, controlled by Alexa. Saying "Alexa kitchen on" actually does
what it says on the tin.

These Sonoff switches are tiny, and the terminals are stupidly small.
I'm more concerned, though, that the whole thing has a clip on plastic
cover. If this falls off, the terminals are exposed.

Should I just return them as unsafe? If I do, does anyone have
recommendations for some switches that are a bit better made?
