They look good to me, programmable ease, yet linear supply.  The only con is the brand name, I'm not familiar with them.

The website suggests they used the name Grundig in the past, not sure how related they were; Grundig is a brand for consumer electronics.

The product listing has some items I recognize at least externally, as Chinese products sold under many different names.

For example, in the pic the HY3003, look just like the Mastech PSU by the same number, HY3003.

Well I'm  a bit hasty. After looking at some others I bought it anyway about half an hour ago. Well I suppose I paid extra for the 3 programmable memories which will be useful.
Well I will check it out with my Rigol DSO when I get it in couple of days and post the screenshots in this thread. Thanks for the replies.
Ps Well its bloody about time I stopped writing "well" so many times and develop a better writing style ;D
