Do they have good instructions on the prep necessary and other relevant info? I’ve heard some kits don’t have good results with adhesion of the plating due to the prep.
You can make your own kit.You need two pure nickle pieces,a trickle charger,distilled vinegar,salt and a glass container.I’ve plated a lot of small pieces this way with good results

The items I listed for a DIY kit are for plating brass.One of these strips,cut in two will last a long time.The most important thing in plating is having the pieces to be plated absolutely clean.
I used a caswell 1 gal kit
Plated flywheel and cylinders on a 1930 folding lightweight
I also used a aquarium airbiator pump and a variable power supply
Worked great
