The only reason I bought this relatively expensive socket was that it matched the adjoining power sockets. What a mistake ! The manufacturing quality is excellent, as you would expect from MK, but the coax cable termination is badly designed, difficult to use, and in my case left me with an intermittent unreliable contact on the centre conductor. The centre conductor uses a one-time push-fit grip like a Wago connector, and the cable layout needs a tight bend that strains both centre and braid connections. I had to prise the whole socket assembly apart to free the cable for second and third attempts, both of which proved as unreliable as the first. I threw the socket away and fitted a more 'normal' one that didn't match the house style. Yes, this was a DIY job, but in case anyone wants to put this down to my clumsiness, I have 50+ years experience of working as an electronics engineer, having fitted all sizes and styles of coax connectors in more difficult places than a TV outlet.
Did not use as push fit connection, preferred the screw option of the other product.
The aerial socket allowed the cable to be installed without a sharp bend in the cable. This was vital as the socket was mounted behind the TV attached to the bracket on the wall. A must for wall mounted TV sets.
Just as needed, these get broken easily. Was easy to replace
Good solide item that said other just as good and cheaper, bought this one to match my sockets and light switches
like angled socket means cable doesn't stick out so much
Great price. Useful item to consider when fitting slim fit wall mounted TV bracket and associated TV.
Ideal fitting - love the angled socket, allows furniture to be closer to the wall.
Top Quality MK TV socket, easy fit easy connection, excellent price.
Did not work as centre hole too big for the middle wire! Do not waste your time and money buying this TV socket.
Easy to wire, nice finish, I prefer the angled cable entry to a wall socket.
great product , better that straight 90 degree one creates more space behind appliance
Great socket as it is set at 45 degrees fit so much better behind a wall mounted TV.
Nicely styled socket, easy to fit and works as expected.
Good quality and stylish, well as much as it can be for a TV point
It is just what i was looking for and will do the job
Can’t review what they didn’t supply, they cancelled my order even though showing in stock.
Exactly as I expected from toolstation. Perfect condition and easy to fit.
Easy to fit,looks better than the flat face sockets
Competitive price, helpful staff, easy to find location plenty of parking.
