My current go-to string brands
I have been using Pyramid sets as well as the Framus blue label strings for the past few months and this Pyramid set is the better quality of the two.
Pros:
Much better out of the box feeling, compared to the Framus set.
Much better durability, holds their feel much longer compared to the Framus sets, which starts feeling scratchy after a few weeks, while this set does not.
Feel is great, feels less 'stiff' compared to D'addario EXLs, but this is personal preferences.
Cons:
Non-vacuum bag packaging.
This is definitely my current go-to strings as they are cheaper per sets compared to D'addario sets I was using in the past, while offering almost as good feel and sound. And this is a clear upgrade over the slightly cheaper Framus blue label strings.

Mixed feelings
Not that easy to rate these strings. Probably, my description should be just "they are OK". They hold tuning quite well. Not too much stretching was necessary. Pleasant feeling under fingers. However, sound-wise they are quite neutral, without any special character. Maybe that is good for someone, but I am not that impressed. If you are on budget and have to change strings often, maybe they are the right ones. I play metal and use Floyd.

good quality, blurred sound
I bought them just to try something different.
As they say nickel is softer -- these strings might be softer indeed, the quality is very good, but... the sound is significantly softer too.
Pro's: cute sound for clean/acc rhythm. Nice with very light overdrive.
Con's: When I say soft sound I mean I could produce no expression with these strings, they sound somehow blurred. Awful with OD/distortion.
Conclusion:
I was not impressed. The next day I reverted to stainless steel strings. I know this is a matter of personal liking, this is why I would say the sound is just "ok".

OK.
I have (on rare occasion) broken guitar strings within a few hours of fitting them, these are doing OK.
A full afternoon and evenings music with the band, and like my voice, holding their tune OK.
I was worried about the low price of these, but they seem OK.

Nice Sound on a Strat
Using these mostly on my Fender Strat.
Thanks to the pure nickel these strings roll off some of the harshness and smooth out the treble especially on the bridge pickup.
The feel is great. Durability is ok. Great price/quality ratio.
Recomended if you need smoother top end. Nice for blues, classic rock, funk.

Good strings!
My hands are sweating very much, so i need strings, that doesn't start to rust after a few minutes/hours of playing. A friend has recommended these strings; and he's right! These strings are lasting longer than every set of D'addario or Ernie Ball i've ever played. The sound is also very clear. Good strings for a great price!
