Another benefit of the lever-nuts is that you can easily test a connection before you finalize it, and there is no twisting & untwisting in the process, nor any need for separate clip leads etc. Some professional electricians might do this on the fly with the power on, but as a DIYer I never risk such testing with live house wiring. Set up proposed connection temporarily using the lever-nuts, go turn on the breaker to verify correct operation, then turn it off again and do the final cutting, stripping, connecting and box-packing.
The next version I'd love to see would be double-row versions for six or eight wires - explained below.
I've been converting most of the switches in my home to Z-Wave smart dimmers and switches. The two major issues with those are 1) the body of the device is much larger than the simple switches they replace, and 2) they require a Neutral pigtail to each switch. The small size of these Wago connectors makes it easy to push them back into the box, out of the way of the large smart-switches. Now, for the Neutrals, I sometimes use these Wago lever connectors to add the new pigtails, but often I need to add two Neutrals to an existing four- or five-wire bundle twisted together in a large wire nut. What I do then, is to un-twist the bundle, carefully separate and straighten the copper ends, and insert them into a push-in connector along with the new white pigtail wire(s). This is where the five-conductor Wago lever connectors can be inadequate - first because I sometimes need six or more positions, and second because spreading out all the wires in one long row is not always a good arrangement in the box. So in those cases, I use a two-row six or eight-position connector and do without the handy release-lever feature. Note that the Wago brand push-nuts (wall-nuts) are very good also, though other brands will do a similar job.
Am important note when using push-ins vs. wire-nuts: I've found that when the wires are not twisted together as with a wire nut, there can be a lot of stress that tries to pull on individual wires, and this gets especially unpredictable when smashing a big wad of wires and connectors back into the box. So what I do is to pinch the bundle together and tighten it up with a nylon zip-tie about 1/4" to 1/2" (say 1cm) from the connector. This makes a strong bundle like wire nut would do, but it's shorter, smaller and a lot easier to modify later.

Every electrician who uses these must have a smile on their faces. The concept is very clever, spring clip holds the cables securely without the need of a screwdriver saving bucket loads of time.
I bought this particular size, not because I needed them, but purely as an 'in case'. I do have several other sizes that I use on a regular basis but, I don't think that you can ever have too much of a good thing.
