It's all ok. Nothing stunning in terms of quality but good for the price.

I’ve used Luceco LED batons and recessed floor lights - seemed pretty standard, no dramas.

Led retrofit tubes are good apart from the 6ft as they changed the driver/psu which caused them to intermittently flicker. Installed over 500 (mainly 5ft) with no problems but all 224 6ft flickered and had to be returned.

Not the most expensive 'premium' brands but I actually quite like BG.. seem a steady make and have not had issues. There CU's are reasonably priced too.
What many consider good makes such as MK have i found over the last year or two gone down hill in terms of quality.
Have had to return quite a bit of MK kit due to issues or jammed screws in the terminals etc... not returned a single BG item,
Another affordable brand that i find to be well made is the schneider stuff.

I use BG accessories and like them ........... plus they are readily available and not too expensive.

Not tried BG CU's

I tried to install a customer supplied 3G switch yesterday - only 2 screws, out of 9 would move ........... very, very poor IMHO

Fitted quite a few USB twin socket outlets with no issues - not too shabby for >£10!

Get what you pay for, personally I dislike them. If it’s a job where customer plans to stay suggest buy something better.

Absolutely not - well proven technology and in a 47mm back box plenty of space too

and doorbells?

Most of these plug in these days

I put them on their own MCB Tel, years ago everyone seemed to fit a surface mounted light switch next to the transformer.
