Sockets sockets sockets

Ow do folks, are MK still the goto choice for decent sockets and switches or have they gone downhill? Will be needing new sockets for the kitchen and light switches for rest of the house.

Advice on a postcard, looking at the brushed steel stuff.

Want quality stuff that will last and want to avoid the bad stuff, I've been told to avoid the LAP stuff for instance.

I know what I need...was after advice on quality brands, ideally be somebody who is a sparky and installs this stuff for a living or a DIY'er with high standards.

Cheapest doesn't mean good...you should know this being an IT enthusiast, sometimes it's worth paying the extra for the better stuff.

What "bad stuff" have you been told about LAP?

I've recently bought some of their sockets and was quite surprised how good the build quality was.

I got told the quality wasn't very good, I guess everyone has their own standards and favourite brands though.
