Classic Accents Single Pole Antique Reproduction Push Button Light Switch Review

Considering this is one of your only options if replacing a push button switch, it is acceptable. The pearl inlay does not match the original and the sound made when switching has a springy sound that doesn't sound original. That aside, they work fine and are safer than the originals. It's definitely worth purchasing these as replacements rather than installing newer style switches. I use them in my 120 year old house.

Classic Accents Single Pole Push Button Dimmer Light Switch Review

I really wanted a dimmer for the bathroom light for bath time, and this seemed great when we decided to go with push-buttons. What I don't like is that side by side with another push button, the top button sticks out about 1/4" further than the other buttons. As it shares a box with a standard push button, this is quite noticeable.
Installed, it also pushes out the light switch cover. Also, we had to drill out the hole on the light switch cover to get the top button to fit because its has a slightly larger diameter.
So, if you absolutely must have a dimmer, this will do, but it is certainly not perfect.
