Electrical wall outlets and switches. Which brand and model is good

I see so many different brands and models. I am building a home and will need upwards of 50 wall outlets. Plus wall toggle switches and dimmers. 

 

There is a large price difference. What would be a good brand and model. Also do you buy a more premium model for the kitchen area where you likely will get a higher electric draw from cooktop, stove, and microwave

Go for one of the known brands, Panasonic, Schneider/Square-D etc. and you should be good to go.

 

We bought everything Panasonic initially, but over the years Haco and Chang have crept into the mix mainly due to the configuration we needed being in-stock.

 

By the way, a cooktop/hob should have a dedicated circuit unless it's just for the igniter on a gas one.
