    Electrician: "only Berker, Berker Square, solid German".
    Me: wait, and OSPEL, Karlik?
    Electrician: to putty, after a few years to replace, they make, unstable, short circuits at higher loads, dust, etc.

    Who's right? So, is OSPEL or Karlik really trash and only Berker the Good?

    I like the karlik only with others having a better choice for more sophisticated applications, at least as it was once I needed and analyzed, but that's what I plan while with my karlik series there are already problems in accessibility, so it was a long time ago.
    I have a rifle on an electric kettle and a coffee machine (double), for example.
    We installed the whole dwelling on the karlik about 9 years.
    However, what happened sometimes with the hand effortlessly twist when assembling some screwdriver, they rather fall off, and there were some structural errors that pissed me off but I don't even remember what. However, the price is quite approx.

    Maybe not only Berker the Good, there is also Legrand. It is important that the design and quality of materials is good. I have almost all the house made on Legrand Suno equipment
    (no longer produced) and works very well.
    Hard thermosetting material, solid connections and fasteners for mounting accessories in the box - this is worth paying attention to.

    Sure, but in brands such as Berker or Legrand it is well over PLN 10 for 1 point. Besides, it's hard for me to believe that a Polish company can't make an outlet or an electrical switch. It's no philosophy after all.

    The price also depends on the product line. Sistena Legrand was much more expensive than Suno, but it was not inferior to its quality. Suno has been replaced by Niloe, if I'm not mistaken.
    Is 4.50 PLN for a Legrand Niloe nest expensive? link

    Niloe are good, and I would give the title in reverse order and it would work out which is better. Ospel is rubbish for me.

    I have been installing SIMON, Basic, 54 for 10 years and recently even 10 series (I don't know if they are durable, but the price!). You can choose nicer Neos frames for the basic series. If the customer insists on ospel or karlik, I count more for the assembly because it is a massacre, and if it happens to replace faulty equipment, it is 90% of these two companies. Berker once assembled, some series PLN 30 per piece, nice, durable, but modular assembly is worse than with Karlik

    Oh my mother, they've been calling you to install SIMON for 10 years, apparently you are an electrician-fitter like Neymar in football. I can not boast of such a call, but that I became an electrician some 40 and a few years ago, so I saw something in my life.

    Let's start from the beginning. Shitty opinions, and so on, put between cartoons, although cartoons have a base. They are spoken by people who don't know much about it. If somebody claims that they are "dusting" then the conversation is over for me. To depreciate a product, you must provide specifics.
    And I have one. Let's go in turn.
    1. Berker. Middle class, not a revelation. For use.
    2. Karlik. I have them in my own home. I have no reason to complain. Maybe this is not a revelation in terms of beauty, but they did not cause me problems either during assembly or now during operation. Bad opinions can only be expressed by people who have problems with correct assembly.
    PS. I have them "for a few years" and I don't know why I should exchange them. Nothing worked ... they look like new.
    3. Ospel. Unfortunately, from 10 years ago I had a nasty slip-up with sockets from the Impresja series. The screw that fixes the socket sign goes through and if it hits the cable in the box, it cuts the insulation, causing a short circuit !!! Of course, the thread of the screw is metallic connected to the PE terminal. Man assembles everything, checks, everything works, all that remains is the attachment of the signs. And here zonk! RCD can't turn on the circuit and look for wind in the field! It worked! And if you mount a power plate under voltage then the flash, bang and protection worked. That's why I got discouraged from Ospel, refused to install even other series and I don't know them. Perhaps this disadvantage has already been removed.

    They do not call, only during assembly I always recommend and encourage customers to buy accessories from this company, and you are 40 years old electrician and you have Karlik at home? the end of the conversation.
