Arlington FLBC4502 Adjustable Floor Box
The Arlington FLBC4502 adjustable floor box is a budget-friendly, installation-focused choice that shines in retrofit and mixed-depth slab conditions because of its adjustable-height design and straightforward installation. It typically costs less than fully modular systems while delivering reliable performance for standard power and limited data needs, so it represents strong value on tight budgets or renovation projects. Against the higher-end modular units here, Arlington sacrifices some modularity and finish options but wins on speed and initial capital outlay.

Thomas & Betts Steel City Round Floor Box
Thomas & Betts' Steel City round floor boxes are a go-to for contractors needing rugged, economical round-form solutions—especially in concrete pours and tile/carpet transitions—offering dependable mechanical strength and simple power-only layouts. They are usually among the most cost-effective choices for power receptacles and stand out where a round footprint is required, but they offer fewer integrated data or aesthetic options than Legrand or Hubbell. For straightforward power distribution in demanding floor environments, Steel City balances durability and affordability.

Leviton Pop-Up Floor Box Receptacle
Leviton's pop-up floor box receptacles are targeted at modern workspaces and conference areas where a flush, retractable solution improves ergonomics and reduces trip hazards; the pop-up mechanism and USB/power combinations add user convenience. Although typically priced at a premium versus fixed recessed boxes, they deliver functional benefits and a clean look that can reduce downstream cable-management costs in office fit-outs. Compared with the more infrastructure-focused boxes on this list, Leviton prioritizes end-user accessibility and finish-level aesthetics over maximum capacity.
