This is a nice router for nice money, better in a low price level that can be switched to OpenWRT is not to be found, it's just a shame that others from CUDY with WIFI7 do not have official OpenWRT support.
Let's see where the CUDY brand takes it
Price
Wifi speed measured 1.4Gbit/s via iperf3 router -> pc on wifi6
Customizability
Small
Cute
The basic firmware has interesting features
Cool operation
I don't trust the base firmware for security, too new brand to draw conclusions yet
Lightweight, but to the point where only the power cable with the router moves
only 3x LAN and 1x WAN
only 16MB NOR - at least an sd card slot would be a big plus
1Gbit LAN/WAN only

After several attempts, I managed to set it up to work as Mesh and also use cable for Mesh. I bought two right away for Mesh throughout the house. Both wi-fi and Lan ports work on both. I use them as an AP after the Miktrotik, which assigns addresses to the main Mesh router. This way I probably avoided most of the problems described in the reviews. Mikrotik gives two static addresses to the main Cudy router for its two unique MACs, and Cudy is set to obtain addresses via DHCP. Originally Cudy had a static address set and there was a problem with disconnecting wi-fi and android devices every time the network restarted and even randomly. I didn't test OpenWRT, because in the end the original system is enough for me.

For the price in action has absolutely no competition

Basically, it has the same range as a 300-rand router. I was expecting to get a stronger signal around the house for the price, but it is exactly the same as the previous cheap router for three hundred.
Appearance
I was expecting more range

For the average user who brings the router home, plugs it into a wall socket, just sets a name on the wifi network and a password, it is a good choice for the money. However, more advanced users will have a problem. For example, in AP mode, Android devices have trouble working over wifi. In router mode they work normally and everything runs fine, but in AP mode it doesn't work for some reason. Other devices like Windows, macOS or iOS don't have this problem. At home, I tested it on 5 Android devices in different versions and different manufacturers and the problem was identical on all of them. The manufacturer knows about it, but apparently hasn't addressed it yet. Even if you set up a guest wifi network for guests with limited access so that the devices can't see each other, they can still see each other and communicate with each other. The guest network is thus meaningless. This restriction does not work even if you set it for a traditional network. The only limitation is that you can't get from the guest network to the router, but even that can be worked around. Overall, there are also quite a few settings options and those that are, some don't even work. OpenWrt has official support and is easy to upload, which is great. However, it requires more advanced knowledge and more time for setup and customization. After installation, in addition to setting up the ports and wifi, you need to set up the router to use both CPU cores, install packages depending on the services you want to use, etc. Personally, I've already spent a few days on it, made countless adjustments and I still can't figure out why I have a weaker wifi range with OpenWrt than with the native firmware. Nothing less the possibility to really separate the network for guests even in AP mode and the possibility to use the WAN port as a LAN and thus have one more port to use is nice. I bought the router on sale for under 800 CZK, which motivated me to replace my 10 year old router, because for that money CUDY AX3000 (WR3000) had no competition. If you have a medium-sized apartment/smaller house, the router is sufficient and can be a good choice for undemanding users. If you have a larger apartment/house or are a more demanding user, I would recommend to pay a hundred more and buy the WR3000S model. It has more ports, more storage and stronger wifi.
Simple setup for inexperienced users, with a few steps you can easily set up the router.
Official OpenWrt support.
Option to turn off the diodes in the settings.
WiFi support 6.
WPA3 wifi security.
Mesh.
Weaker wifi. On Alza, the router filtered me with a wifi parameter of 5 dBi, but even according to the manufacturer's website, the wifi signal is only 4.8 dBi at 5 GHz and at 2.4 GHz it is 3.4dBi.
Only 16 MB Flash/ROM.
OpenWrt has official support and directly on the manufacturer's website you can find the version you have to use to play the native firmware, but even after countless modifications I didn't get as much performance on wifi as with the native firmware.
The power consumption in the idle state should be only 4.2 W, but even when I don't have anything connected to the device, it has a stable power consumption of around 10 W.
The cover looks aesthetically pleasing and thanks to the fact that it's practically made up of only grilles, it has good cooling. However, I am concerned if there will be a problem in the future with dust falling directly on the internal components, but maybe I am worrying unnecessarily.
Problems in AP mode, extender. On the CUDY firmware, if you set the router as an AP (access point) then Android devices will drop wifi. It will either disconnect from wifi or pop up a message saying you can't access the internet. Other Windows, macOS and iOS devices don't have this problem. This is purely an Android problem.
