MK Logic Plus vs Hager Sollysta - which one should I choose?

[Alla Musica]

I'm liking how this comparison is progressing

Now I'm ruling MK out for its notoriously flimsy terminal screws, leaving Hager Sollysta and Click Mode to choose from.

Hager Sollysta - Merits

• Smooth edge on rockers
• Rocker shape fits finger very well

Hager Sollysta - Disdvantages

• Non-modular - no DIY retrofit potential
• Brand carved on the faceplate (given my OCD)

Click Mode - Merits

• Modularity - potential for DIY retrofitting
• Requires little force to operate

Click Mode - Disadvantages

• Sharp noise when operated
• Sharp edges unpleasant to hands

Are you doing a report for 'Which?' ?

Click Mode - Disadvantages

• Sharp noise when operated
• Sharp edges unpleasant to hands

If that noise isn't deafening, what's the problem with an incisive 'click' for certainty of operation?
Wear some oven gloves if you're worried about hand damage.

Sorry, I'm just trying to express I'm having difficulty deciding, which I didn't make clear of.

Also, Sollysta and Logic+ ain't as noisy as Click. But certainly, noise is not an important factor to consider. Hand comfortability - also unimportant but weighs more.

To clarify, I'm just expressing I'm still having difficulty deciding. If anyone could help me add to the list of merits and disadvantages, please do so and much appreciated.

Five days and 50 posts already, mate.

You seem to have tried a few, so it may be 'make your mind up time'.

To be fair, the OP sets out what their aims are in their first few posts.

My personal choice is Hager, seem to be the most consistent over the range of all they make.

So after a few days' difficult decision I come to totally agree with you. Good quality, pleasing aesthetics, and finger-friendly rockers...

Cheers mate - I'll look into this too

To the OP, Lap is very low budget and not worth looking at for a decent accessory.

English sense of humour leaves a lot to be desired in translation.

Aha I do realize this as well! Anyway, not going for this brand at all.

Also - as I'm not from the country, funny are the things I learn from the forum!

Cheers

Watch out, folks, there is a catch with the Hager Sollysta:

Despite Hager claims the accessories to be under "product lifetime warranty", their T&Cs defines it as "25 years from the date of manufacture" - yes, from the date of manufacture.

That's cringe.

Please don't.
