I replaced the old doorbell button with this one because it was not lighting up and was hard to press.
I replaced my old doorbell button with this one for less than the cost of two replacement bulbs.
I have complained about the durability of the button. The originally installed button became cracked within a few years and the replacement stopped working within a year.
I tightened the two screws and the button fell apart, causing the bulb to fall out.
83% liked the modern design, though 17% found it outdated
The doorbell button works smoothly, lights up well, and is brighter than expected.

I super glued the base to the lens, slipped it into the wall hole, and screwed the mounting plate back on.

I used super glue to fix the base to the lens and it worked. I also used a screwdriver with a plastic handle to avoid conducting power.
