Gear Cables: lesser known brand

I need to replace a couple of inboard cables (gear & throttle) and the largest marine chandlery in Australia (Whitworths) stock cables by "Multiflex" and not "Teleflex".

They look and feel the same, and I have a shop credit that I need to use, so I'm tempted to buy these. They feel nice and flexible, with a nice tight bend radius.
Other than the manufacturer's web site (which predictably sings it own praises), I can't find any user reviews on Multiflex cables.

If anyone on this forum has experience of Multiflex cables, good or bad, I would appreciate your comment/recommendation. Thanks.
