Works great, has smooth action, and kills two birds with one stone by being able to spin and kill reflections. The only complaint is incompatibility with many lens hoods, but well, it's better to reduce the diffraction and hit your target than eliminate the diffraction and have to jump through hoops to get a decent shot.

Very easy to use and produces high quality images. Being able to adjust exposure without removing and adding filters makes shooting so much faster. Image quality is great.

The filter is supplied in a plastic carrying case with high quality foam for protection. The filter sits firmly in the housing, so you can be sure that it will not move after storage or be damaged during transport.
The filter itself feels of good build quality, with the metal frame holding the glass in place. I like the lever to adjust the stops, the action is smooth and doesn't move on its own. I would have preferred that K&F included a lens cap just in case I wanted to leave the filter on the camera.

Pros: Great packaging, clean glass, no color shifts.
saves a lot of time on run and gun shots. especially with gimbals
Cons: requires practice to turn it with one hand. Just remember to turn off your gimbal motors before rotating the filter or you may damage your gimbal motors.

I love that this is a combination of variable ND and polarizing filter. It makes setting up my shot so much easier without trying to put two different filters on. In addition, this filter feels and looks really solid. Another important thing is that this filter doesn't have that pesky "X" that some others have. I would recommend this and I think it would be great for anyone who wants a decent ND and polarizing filter without spending hundreds of dollars.

The very experienced photographer who found this and recommended it to me as my first filter, but he also bought it and loves it - it's his filter now

I've been using this CPL/density filter for about a month and it's amazing. I take stock photos for some dealers and it works great in harsh light and balancing/removing reflections.
As far as it's used for landscapes and portraits, it really helps to tone down highlights for better control when editing, and deepens some other color areas that you often lose.
The only downside is that I can't use my lens hood as a "shock shield" as you can't use the CPL with a lens hood. Currently using this filter on a Tamron 24-70 G2

I was pleasantly surprised by this polarizing filter and neutral density filter, it is not overpriced and the quality of the photos is not bad at all, I have taken several photos with the different degrees that allow to subtract light and the result is good if you like them Silk effects in the water, this is an essential filter.
It also has a polarizer that eliminates reflections on crystalline surfaces

This is a serious filter. Most of the filters I've used seem to be very cheaply made, but this thing looks like a serious piece of hardware.
I was blown away by how smooth the knob is and how you can actually adjust the filter from light to dark. This is very handy for long exposures, especially during the day. You can't have a long exposure with too much light, but this solves that problem.
The filter does not change the image at all and does not cause any strange side effects. It's crystal clear and just as sharp as if it weren't there.
I also love that you get a padded carry case to keep your new filter safe and the included cleaning cloth is a nice touch.

Really excellent build quality. It proves to be robust and has excellent materials. Highly recommended, also because a CPL in combination with a variable ND filter is really affordable at this price.
