Electrical sockets

Hi new to the forum, looking for some advice regarding buying electrical sockets, 2 gang.
What would be classed as the best on the market, also are screw less sockets any good.
Thank You.

I like Schneider stuff but I’m a bit of a snob.

Screwless are fine but you ideally need a really flat surface to get them to fit right, a wonky bit of plaster and they look bad.

also flat plate sockets require a 35mm back box, so a ballache chiselling deeper into brick.

I’m still partial to a bit of MK logic plus ...

Click Mode sockets are good too, I've never had a bad one. I'd recommend always using double pole switched sockets too, just that little bit safer.

fitted 2 MK pendants (customer supplied) today, bloody rubbish. terminal screws too small to see the slots, flopping around when you try to tighten them. give me BG every day.
