    Good for its price. I use it for running. It provides some support, and for 50 minutes of running, it didn't move out of place. It's quite thin, and during running, it makes some slight creases that don't cause any issues. With five times the price, you can find something more sturdy and thicker that doesn't crease (e.g., McDavid 401). Absolutely satisfactory, it warms up slightly, does what it needs to do, and saves you from injuries. If washed, it takes a bit longer to dry.
    I recommend it.

    The only serious problem is that it takes a long time to dry because it contains cotton. If you want to run for two consecutive days, it won't have dried in one day, especially now in November. You'll need a second one, or you won't wash it (which of course isn't an option after a run)

  • Perfect set of sockets up to number 27. The ratchet is very good with 90 teeth, all the tools are perfectly finished, and the case is sturdy. Nothing is missing except for the number 9 socket (you rarely find such a nut), and it has both inch and metric Allen tips. The sockets seem durable (I only tried the number 21 on wheel bolts, it fit perfectly and the ratchet doesn't strain your hands) and their finish is impressive - they are polished and very well made inside - they look like they belong to premium tools priced at 200+€. I highly recommend them.

    From the moment you hold it in your hands, it shows quality. Excellent for its price. As for accuracy, I compared it with one from BETA, which has a calibration certificate, and at 30 and 60 Nm they match perfectly. Note that the BETA goes max up to 60 Nm and does not have a ratchet.
    Its advantage is that it has a ratchet and comes with 3 sockets 17, 19, 21, an extension, and a decent case.
    The only disadvantage is that the torque indications are a bit hard to read for the elderly.
    Flawless and sturdy

  • If you follow the instructions exactly (which are in English, but you can see the process roughly on YouTube), it works. The case I used it for was on a 2016 Yaris, where the windshield, I don't know how, got hit and developed 2 pits with a crack between them, about 22mm apart. The impact was very noticeable to the touch, even the wiper left some small marks on the radius of the impact. I followed the process very closely and the result can be seen in the 2 photos before and after (the after is the one with the blue around - reflection of the sky). The pits are still visible, but after the final cleaning with the scraper included in the package, it is COMPLETELY smooth, you don't feel anything to the touch and the wiper works perfectly. In short, the job was done and I won't need to do anything else. One last thing, in some reviews of similar products, it is said that the windshield becomes cloudy locally after the repair. This is not the case with k2. I recommend it on the condition that you have the patience for the repair (count on over 2 hours)

    Really EXCELLENT! A big surprise for the €28 I paid. It has nothing to do with those that sell for 1.5T or those that come with the car. It is 2 tons, with TUV and CE certificates, and practically lifts anything easily in a passenger car and SUV. It was tested on FORD FOCUS, TOYOTA YARIS, and JEEP RENEGADE, lifting them easily and its operation is very smooth (a bit stiff when turning low but progressively softens when high). With moderate effort, it can also be used by some women or older men and generally by people with reduced physical strength.
    Important! It lifts to 44cm without dangerous jacks and other tools used. I usually use it to lift the car and support it on tripods at 42 cm, without needing a trolley jack which is heavy and very difficult near sidewalks. The head at the top is rotating, which helps a lot if you are close to a sidewalk. It appears particularly sturdy with a thick trapezoidal threaded axle with excellent anti-corrosion protection. When I received it, there was no lubricant visible, so I applied lithium grease to the thread and WD-40 spray to the bearing and joints. The only small flaw is its large length, almost half a meter for the packaging, which makes it difficult to place inside very small cars.
    I recommend it.

  • Unsuitable for before or after training. It causes bloating and intense diarrhea 2 hours after consuming it. Yes, it has a good price, plenty of protein 24g, but unfortunately, it has a strong laxative effect. It's the first one that caused me this problem. I used to take it before the gym and barely made it home after the workout. Ridiculous situations...

  • I have been using it for several years. The flavor for the double chocolate is very sweet for my taste, but it dissolves very easily with a shaker. Given the large amount per serving, the box provides about 40 servings, so the cost is approximately €1.5. Of course, the scoop gives 30g of protein and 4+ creatine. NO problems with bloating or diarrhea. I will continue to use it, especially in the winter

    Decent product at a reasonable price (as reasonable as it can be with today's price hikes).
    It dissolves quite easily in water; if it's very cold, it needs a bit more stirring.
    In terms of taste, the royal chocolate is very good, a little sweeter than my preference.
    It causes slight bloating, but definitely some isolated ones are better.
    At least it doesn't cause diarrhea like other raw whey products.
    Given that it provides about 65 servings, it is a very worthwhile product.
    It's not insignificant to have it cost less than €1 per serving.
    I have bought it at least 5 times and will continue to use it alternately with ON GOLD STANDARD and MUSCLETECH NITROTECH

  • I have had these shoes since May 2020, for over 4 years, and they are like new. I run once a week with them, and they are very comfortable for medium and slow paces (pace 5:40 - 6:20). For other fast workouts, I use different shoes.
    I will write below the + and -
    Advantages
    excellent durability over time without softening or hardening.
    excellent stability helps you run even when you have a minor injury.
    good cushioning
    comfortable fit
    excellent grip on wet surfaces, etc.

    Disadvantages
    they are heavy at 227g in size 44
    the laces, while very durable, easily come undone and need to be double-knotted
    the foot hold, even with tight laces, could be better.
    For lighter individuals, they may be a bit stiff.
    For fast running, they are quite heavy, especially on uphill runs, they can be tiring.
