    I don't know what rating to give, because despite its unacceptable drop in quality, it remains above average as a diary. As shown in the photo, the writing fields have loosened the bindings by half compared to the previous year, causing the pages to come out of place and tear (for those familiar with editions and bindings, the result is like putting a "pin" in many stacked pages - this was an issue in some comic book issues released by Anubis in the '00s).

    I believe this was done for cost-cutting reasons, but when I sent an email to the company to complain and inquire, I received no response other than a standard promise to address my concerns. Personally, I will stop rewarding mediocrity for the sake of profit increase, and that's why I would recommend a Legami instead of this diary. The flexbook patent and all its positives were lost the moment they skimped on the bindings. I would pay more for a proper product, but I won't give anything for something unfinished that doesn't fulfill what it advertises - especially when they have proven they can make it high-quality but choose to be cheap.

  • I used the 2023 one, so I came to leave a review. I have no idea how well-known this company is, but here I see that it has no reviews. They have very high-quality notebooks and calendars, I have never seen such good binding. It allows you, if you want, to fully open it (fold it like a magazine) and the spine doesn't open or break. It has all the positives of a spiral without any negatives. I really liked the format, it is what is shown in the photo with the week on one side and blank space on the other. This year, maybe I'll go for a change to Legami, but at this price, don't look elsewhere. Really well done to The Writing Fields for the calendars and the Flexbook, the quality and prices that they keep grounded in Greek standards, while they could have raised them due to the patented binding.

    Unfortunately, not only did the battery life decrease, but I can no longer use it even when it is plugged in and after hours of charging. From the beginning, it was defective because the battery would drain without me using it, but now it is completely ruined.

    Those who have even slightly researched retro handheld emulators know that at €7, this thing is a steal. Just the BL-5C battery alone covers the price. From Chinese stores, these consoles start at double the price and above (€15-€21), while just a year ago they were at least €10. So if you're thinking that the stores that have brought it to Greece have raised the price, that is not the case at the moment. Given that even if you find it for €7 from China, you now have to pay VAT and customs fees, this particular price is extremely advantageous.

  • Unfortunately, within a three-month period, the buckle that it has for tightening broke. I admit that I use it heavily because I want it to be as tight as possible for work, resulting in me tightening it more than 5 times a day, knowing that I am putting strain on the buckle and the material of the belt. But it would have been better if I had paid double and gotten something with a different tightening mechanism that would still be intact.

  • Honest cutter for its money which besides cuts, it is also convenient for stripping UTP and 3x1.5 up to thick single-core solar type. Quite more difficult to use in hand compared to the equivalent-sized Knipex, but also at 1/5 of the price.

  • For stripping NYY 180mm² and above, it doesn't work, it's much better to get wire cutters. Maybe it can cut a different type of insulation though.

    The glove is the best if you need precision in your hands (e.g. electrical work, screwdrivers, or cable pulling). I should emphasize that we are talking about polyurethane gloves, and if you are used to nitrile gloves, which are the most common in the market, these will surprise you with how thin they are. However, being thin does not mean they are less durable (after all, they have the highest possible rating for abrasion resistance) as compared to regular nitrile gloves (where, if you look it up, most on the market have a worse rating for abrasion resistance), they lasted at least twice as long without losing the coating on the palm (although the seam on the thumb did open).

    You may find it excessive enthusiasm for a pair of disposable gloves, but they have greatly facilitated my work and now I can't wear nitrile gloves again. However, obviously they are not suitable for heavy-duty work, as they have the worst possible rating for punctures and cuts.

    The jacket is amazing. The fleece keeps you warm (tested in a Florina winter) and because it is thin and has a loose fit, it doesn't restrict your movements while working, which was a problem I had with any jacket I tried until now. Durability remains to be seen, but if you want something comfortable for manual labor, it is a must-buy. The price is ridiculously low. If you are extremely sensitive to the cold, you can also combine it with thermal wear.

    Please note that the fabric is not stretchy at all. The material appears to be of good quality and durable, but personally, it didn't suit me well because it restricts movements quite a bit. Other than that, it is a good work pants for its price, I recommend it if you are more interested in protection and pockets rather than comfort in movements.

    Edit: After a month, several washes, and heavy use, I would like to add that the fabric "opens up" and becomes a bit more comfortable. The pockets are very practical, but the Velcro and some seams have started to fray (without anything being torn or damaged though). I don't change my rating, it is definitely worth it for the price, as long as you know what you are buying it for.
