I got this to replace the now broken eye cup for my A7IV, I wanted to get something similar to the original as it worked well and this was pretty inexpensive at just £5.49.
In the box, there are two eye cups, two hotshoe levelers and a cleaning cloth. The levelers are okay but not entirely needed as my camera does have a onscreen level. The eyecups are very similar to the originals, sporting the notch to allow the sensor to know if your looking into the viewfinder to swap between the LCD to the digital viewfinder. The eyepiece is made out of hard plastic and a rubberised plastic which is slightly squishy.
Overall, for the money, these are an excellent addition to have in your kit bag as a replacement set of the eye pieces which come with the camera. They clip in well and feel like the originals. 5/5!

This is a great kit to have and just stick in your camera bag for when you inevitably lose the eyepiece or hotshoe insert…because it WILL happen. The pieces are nice quality and fit perfectly. I don’t really have a use for the bubble level aspect but who knows…maybe one day I’ll be glad to have it.

The eyecups fit just like the originals and the bubble levels are a nice tight fit. Perfect for my D750.

I just needed some new hot shoe covers, as I lost mine. These ones have spirit levels built in, which is a bonus when levelling your camera on the tripod. I didn’t use the eyecups, as I own a Panasonic GH5, so these wouldn’t fit.

This pack is of good quality, I don't have a Sony however the hot shoe covers are universal. They slide on and protect the hot shoe from the environment, beneficial if you are filming in rain, dust or otherwise don't want to risk the hot shoe getting bashed. The leveller is surprisingly useful as a way to determine if the camera is stable when shooting freehand.

PROS
-eye cups fit well on my A7II camera
-hotshoe bubble levels could be useful to some (I use the electronic level mostly)
CONS
-plastic of eyecup solid, there is no give, not very comfortable
MY STAR RATINGS:
1* substandard, mostly cons
2** barely acceptable, cons outweigh the pros
3*** meets the basic requirements, cons balance the pros
4**** good product, pros outweigh the cons
5***** exceptional, all (or almost all) pros

This was just the job for my Sony SLR. The eyepieces slid on well although slightly on the tight side which I do not mind as it means it's secure. The bubble levels are also handy particularly for videography rather than for photos. You get two of each for the princely sum of just over a fiver which is pretty good value in my eyes.

Tested these on both A73 and A7R3 - fitted both cameras perfectly.
They fit snugly with a confident click and take a small amount of effort to take them off - they are not as tight as the original, but tight enough that they will stay on without slipping off.
The 2 hot shoe covers (with level bubble) fit well - but I won't use them, there is nothing wrong with them, just that I personally have a phobia about using these sort of bubble levels in the hot shoe - just in case there is any leakage. I know it is extremely unlikely, it is just my own phobia.
The vacuum packed micro cloth is a good size and is great material.
Overall, at £5.49 (July 2024), I would say that is good value for the over package - eyecups fit perfectly, bubble level hot shoe covers fit perfectly and the micro fiber cloth is good.
No reason not to rate 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ imho.

Fits well.
The Eyecup fits more securely than the one that came with my camera. It works well as intended. The only real distance is that the outer portion where your eye goes is less flexible, cushioned than the OEM eyecup. I am OK with that but others may not be.
The bubble level that fits on the hot shoe also fits well. It is actually more cushioned than the eyecup. It serves, for me, primarily to protect the multitude of connectors in the hot shoe.
I have always had luck with K&F products.
