Best Light Sockets of 2025

"I really appreciate the quality of this light socket. It's sturdy and performs amazing! Installation was straightforward, and the light it provides is just perfect for my workshop."

"This was exactly what I needed! It attached easily to the metal box, and I liked that it came with screws. I did hear a crack while tightening, but there are no visible issues. Overall, a good buy for a simple replacement."

"I found these plastic fixtures to be excellent for my remodeling project. They're cheap and easy to install, plus they work well in less fancy spaces. I ordered more because they worked so well!"

"I chose this product to upgrade an old receptacle. The porcelain material seemed to provide better quality than plastic, and the installation was quite straightforward. I had to make adjustments to align the holes, but I found a helpful guide online. After some minor hiccups with bending connectors and a small porcelain crack, everything was firmly attached. The switch and outlet work independently, which is perfect for my garage setup!"

"I needed pull chain light sockets with built-in outlets for my basement and garage, so I ordered this item. I’ve had great experiences with Leviton products before. Unfortunately, I faced some issues with broken sockets upon delivery, which led to returns. However, once installed, they performed exceptionally well. The outlet is snug, and the pull chain switch operates smoothly. Just a reminder: don’t tighten too much, as it’s porcelain!"

"This Leviton lamp holder with outlet was just what I needed for my cold cellar. It replaced an old plastic lamp holder and felt very solid. The pull switch works perfectly, and the outlet snugly holds a 3-prong plug. I even ran a ground wire for extra safety. Overall, I found it to be excellent value for money and aesthetically pleasing compared to the original."

“This is a basic pull chain lamp holder, but it works perfectly. The plastic base doesn't bother me since I use LED bulbs, which save energy and produce little heat. Installation was straightforward and the pull chain operates smoothly. Great value for the price!”

“I needed a replacement lamp holder with a pull chain and this one fit perfectly and was easy to install. I’m very satisfied!”

“I bought two of these, but I dropped one and it shattered easily. Learn from my mistake! Just be careful with them.”

"I found this product to be sturdy and easy to install. I replaced a pig tail light with a safer and solid fixture."

"When I purchased this for $2.47, I couldn't believe the value for the money. It was a quick 5-7 minute job to replace my old fixture, and I was thrilled with the quality. Highly recommend!"

"I replaced a plastic fixture in my closet with this ceramic model. It works great and feels high quality where it counts. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this again!"

"I found the installation to be very easy. Although the screws stripped easily, I used my own and the unit worked perfectly. It's also very lightweight!"

"I had low expectations for the sockets, but I decided to give them a chance. However, when I placed my bulb in the socket, the inner aluminum ripped out. It broke so easily that I was baffled. Thankfully, it came with two, but the second one had issues too, with the wires ripping out during handling. Not worth the money!"

"I used this light for my barn, and it works great! I have no complaints so far."

"I used this to replace a faulty table lamp switch. Once the old one was off, this went on easily. The quality feels pretty good, not super strong, but good enough for a standard table lamp. The switch works simply and well. Nice and inexpensive."

"I fixed our lamp after the bakelite lampholder broke. This was an easy install and a quality device."

"I bought this but I don't like the button for turning on and off."

"These are perfect for the project I intended to use them for, with long leads that are great for splicing."

"I found exactly what I was looking for, and the price is decent too!"

"The socket works well with incandescent bulbs, but I had some fit issues with certain LED sockets that needed to be screwed in really tight."

“I revived my vintage pumpkin decoration with this product, and it worked perfectly! It held up wonderfully on my covered porch throughout the season.”

“I really love this cord! It’s perfect for my storage room setup, and the toggle switch is conveniently far from the plug.”

“I bought this to add some warm lighting while I varnish wood projects. It’s very inexpensive and works perfectly, though I wish the on/off switch was placed differently.”

"The product arrived as expected, and I was very happy with the quality. I found that if I trim the tops, they fit perfectly into a three-quarter inch pipe Union for making lighting fixtures."

"I used these sockets to create an industrial light fixture for our bathroom remodel. They worked great, were easy to use, and the price was right. I've been using them for about three months now without any issues, and I would definitely buy them again for future projects."

"These sockets are quality and easy to wire. Unlike other types, they don't come apart during use. I bought eight of each color, but I would have rated it five stars if a few hadn't come with missing screws. They were packaged securely, so I believe the screws were never installed at the factory."

"I love how it looks great and is just what I wanted! The quality construction is impressive, and it's so easy to mount. I use it for science experiments with small light bulbs, and it works perfectly! Just a heads up, it's a plastic holder, so I wouldn't use high-watt bulbs since they can melt the plastic. Also, be careful with the exposed terminals around kids!"

"The product performed well for me, although one of the terminal screws stripped when I was removing it. Not a big deal; it's an easy fix. After seeing its performance, I wanted to order more, but I was shocked to find the price had more than doubled. I understand supply and demand, but that kind of price increase feels unreasonable. I decided to take my business elsewhere due to this consumer abusive behavior."

"I needed to replace a faulty ballast control on my outdoor deck lighting, which would have cost over $100. This nifty socket was a fantastic find! It was well-built and allowed me to replace both the ballast control unit and bulb for less than $10 and in just about 15 minutes. I even bought a spare!"
