My understanding is that these are generally used in flashlights, and they definitely have that very positive "click" that you'd expect for that use. But I've found them to be very handy general purpose switches for all sorts of electronics projects. The fact that they are latching rather than momentary makes them perfect for power switches where you might usually have to use something like a slide or toggle switch.You can easily solder wires directly to the leads on the switch, but if you put a couple bends into them, they can also be surface mounted. I created a simple footprint for the switch in KiCad that I've used on a couple projects now. They might be a little chunky compared to most SMD components, but if you've got other big devices on the board like battery holders and connectors, they shouldn't be too out of place.

These are "high quality" for being a "cheap design", and perform every bit as well as expected.They do tend to be easy to press-apart when installing them, but this is not a defect, just the way they were designed, and this won't happen anyway if some care is taken while inserting them into enclosures and such.They are rated at 30 Amps, but I used one in a circuit carrying almost 50 amps and did not expect the switch to survive, but it did.HOWEVER, I did NOT switch the 49 Amp current on and off with this switch, but had the switch turned on when I applied the current.

Exactly what I needed, and it arrived exactly when I wanted it. Easy to solder wires to it, and easy to hide the terminals afterwards with shrink-wrap tubing. The form factor is pretty small, which is great.

I have used six of these so far and have one that contacts intermittently. Not that big of deal typically (just put in a new one) except that the install is all glued up and can't be disassembled to replace it. Besides that they seem to be OK.

Very obvious tactile click when activating the switch. Works as intended for battery powered projects.

These miniature switches were perfect for my small electronics projects. Their small size made them easy to integrate into tight spaces. Overall, a great value for the price!

This button worked as promised but the push the button on/ off you really need to push down on the button. My issue is that due to having to push harder to make the button switch it puts stress on the housing of my project.

While they took me some getting used to to mount in my devices and doodads I make because there is no way to screw in or mount then, and you cannot use them like a through hole button or switch as the leads are too fat. I've had to 3d print my cases specifcally for them. Once I got used to that though, they've been amazing little toggling switches. Love them!Also they're pretty cute for buttons.
