Helunsi 3Pcs Floor Lamp Foot Switch, Black Foot Pedal Switch, Round Floor Lamps Foot Inline Switch, Step ON Off Spring Push Button, for Control Replacement Floor Lamp Extension Cord Parts - Pack of 3

Works gr8. Not a flimsy piece either. Easy to install

Surprisingly, this piece I located on line fixed an old floor lamp that otherwise we would have had to trash. Extremely easy to put on the lamp cord, and it works like a harm.

Three reasonably priced foot pedal switches for floor lamps. The one on my lamp broke and this was an exact replacement. Simple to install. You can also convert a roller or push-button bulb switch on any floor lamp to a foot pedal one.

Worked like a charm …. Very easy to install . Now I can use my lamp again …. Yay!!!!

Works great. The install is tricky with braided wire, but I got it to work.

Very easy to install.

Cons:If your power cord is a stranded wire (ie. a bunch of thin copper wires bound together), you will have a very difficult time pushing the wire through the little hole on the little on/off toggle (inside the foot switch). Even when twisted, the stranded wire is simply not firm enough to be pushed through the securing metal clip inside the on/off toggle. In my installation, through the wire-release hole on the side, I have to use a tiny flathead screw driver to push open the metal clip inside the on/off toggle while pushing the stranded wire through its hole. Once the stranded wire is pushed through (and you can actually see it protruding out of the other side of the metal clip as you look through the top of the semi-transparent plastic on/off toggle), I pull out the tiny screw driver to release the metal clip which then secures the wire. This is a difficult task; I don't recommend this foot switch if your power cord has stranded wiring.If you could somehow force your stranded wire through the hole of the on/off toggle, make absolutely sure that the stranded wire goes all the way through the metal clip to ensure a secure connection. As mentioned earlier, you can actually see the tip of the wire on the other side of the metal clip by looking through the top of the semi-transparent on/off toggle. You will risk sparking, heat built up, and possible fire if the connection is not secure. Remember that this is a foot switch and that you will be kicking and applying a lot of pressure on it. The connection must be secure.With that said, if your power cord has solid conductor wire, it's very easy to push the solid wire through the hole to get a secure connection.Poor documentation with improper English is another con.Pros:The overall foot switch is well-built. The button has a solid "click" sound and feel. Inexpensive.Additional note:Remember to cut and route the hot wire through the on/off toggle. The hot wire is normally black. Lamp power cord does not have the white/black color coding but you should see two leads/wires. Use your finger to feel for and identify the smooth wire and the ribbed wire. The smooth wire is the hot wire.

Perfect switch replacement for my Ott Floor lamp, whose switch had worn out. Easy to replace. The switch is designed to have you push the wires into it, with an automatic clamping. Unfortunately, I had to use to pin to help me push my wires into it. But otherwise, it worked as designed.
