Well, I can say that I've personally used that switch on a number of projects and they all still work. Maybe the reviewers don't understand how to use them, or are using them in applications where more current is drawn than the switch can handle? Maybe there was a bad batch? Maybe it's a combination of user stupidity and normal number of DOA units?
In this case, the switch is passing very little current so it should be fine. But at the very least, it was an
example of a DPDT switch.
