Other Wagu-type connectors are pretty much the same as back stab receptacles They often come on recessed light fixtures these days.
They are handy in crowded switch boxes, but I have limited confidence.
I have reused wire nuts for decades (not the same ones).

Right. WAGO makes push-in connectors in addition to the lever-actuated ones.Originally Posted by Cameron Wood
On the surface, these may appear to be the same as backstab receptacles. But it might not be fair to judge push-in connectors based on one poor implementation. The discussion here is interesting.

Reading a bunch of Youtube comments, one benefit that stands out is connecting stranded and solid wires together.
In this test, high current was run through wire with various connectors, and they all maintained their connections long past when the insulation was melted away.
