Incompatible, but amazing customer service
EDIT:
The seller contacted me and resolved my initial issue by sending me the CPL compatible with my kit. I'm very pleasantly surprised by the time they dedicated to me and how effectively they resolved my problem.
They also explained that the size difference (larger diameter) is to minimize vignetting. K&F's customer service has transformed my experience into a positive one and demonstrated that they are definitely serious, offering highly competent products at very competitive prices.
Thank you, K&F.

I bought this second kit because I already had another identical K&F Concept Nano-X magnetic kit, hoping to create a single ecosystem of interchangeable filters. Unfortunately, that's not the case. Although both products are 82mm and belong to the same magnetic line from the brand, they are not compatible with each other.
To make matters worse, the cases, boxes, and even the product line name (Nano-X Series) are identical, reinforcing the idea that they should work within the same system. However, the filters don't fit, the magnets don't match, and even the 82mm magnetic caps are different sizes and incompatible.
Given that the two products are so identical, I think it would be appropriate to clarify that they are not compatible to avoid confusion and bad experiences like this one.
If you already own another K&F magnetic kit, be careful: it may not be compatible with this one, even if they are from the same product line.
For example, I only needed the CPL filter, which didn't come with the first kit I bought, and buying it separately costs €90 versus €130 for the kit. That's why I opted for the second kit, but it didn't work out.
