Just an FYI: I had to install 3 'new' GFCIs (bad out of the box!) in my bathroom till one finally worked correctly. And another one in my kitchen always kicked off, but now, years later, the top plug works reliably. The bottom plug will still kick off whenever anything is first plugged in or unplugged. Makes me wonder how safe anything is! Also I have doubled the number of smoke detectors in the house, lol.
