How is this installed? Do you just plug it into the wall or do you need to use screws?

It comes with screws and wall anchors as well as double faced adhesive tape. I used the adhesive - 'cause it was so easy. It's mounted on painted wallboard and seems very solid and secure.

Yes! The holder( sheet metal with screw holes, mounts on the wall with screws or tape. The electrical power is by a cord that you plug into an electric outlet. Was a simple install but follow the instructions to avoid having the plate upside down.

You plug in the whole unit. It has a small hole in the side that the plug goes into and a small transformer that goes into the wall.

Mine works fine although it was a real pain to install. The screws are very tiny. Get ready to use a magnetic screwdriver because you'll need it. I spent a very long trying insert the first screw. Once I started using the magnetic screwdriver the process went smoothly.

I personally had someone install it for me. It was not obvious to me how it was to be done. The best way though is to use the included cord so that batteries are not needed. Make sure that it is installed at a height which is convenient for the user. In my case I prefer using it sitting down and not in any bathroom but in my bedroom.

The wires are inserted into a hole that was there and the lizard is screwed into the wall with two screws. We installed this with minimal work.

It just screws on. Very easy to install. No problems with it in the 4 months or so since we replaced it. Good luck!

It comes with screws, you just need a phillips head screw driver. Simple instructions come with it. Took me about 20 minutes. I just love it!

Yes it has an attached cord so it just plugs into a socket. Installation was no problem.

You must use the screws that come with the wall mount, they are small but its all you need.

It plugs into a standard outlet. You would normally remove the cover from the outlet first and then use the screw included with the BESTEK to attach it to the wall plug.

Thanks for the detailed info. Are there set screws to connect the power or do you have to splice the wires to connect the power?

I don't remember what screws came with it, but I can help a little.... it comes with a base that you screw into the wall first. I used drywall anchors and short screws because our house is old and has plaster. It was solidly in the wall with just short, regular 1" screws. Even in plaster. Then the TP holder screws on to the anchor base. It's a really nice holder.

Mine came with a long screw to replace the screw on the outlet cover so that this item can't get accidentally pulled out of the outlet. I'm sure you can just plug it in and use it if the screw is missing.

This unit requires wiring into the wall - it is a very straight forward (easy) hook up. One could, I guess, attach a plug and cord, but additional considerations such as strain relief for the cord would apply.

You have to use the bracket. Also, you need a large hole through the wall or a large circuit box that you can do your connections in. There is a large cable coming out of the unit that splits into several connectors at the end of the cable.

It screws into the top of the unit and screws into the wall. I looked and I have a drywall type anchor in the wall - I cannot remember if it came with or I just did it myself. It is very 'tipsy' so you absolutely need to do this or it may tip over! (I hid the wall mount with a stack of towels on top :)

The wall plate itself connects to a standard outlet box like any other wall plate (AC outlet, cable outlet, etc..). I found a handy one at ACE hardware that you can install from the front (outside) of the wall by just cutting the hole, inserting the box, and tighten down the "molly" like tabs. Run the wires inside the wall and into the box before inserting the outlet box into the wall. I hope that helps. Take a look at "Thomas & Betts #b120r Sg Old Work Box" on Amazon for an example of the outlet box.
