I would point out that there are some of us here that own both a Canon grip, 7D mkii and the Pixel grip 5D mkiv and can't disconcert any tangible difference in quality, take it for what it is worth, I have seen a lot of negative comments about the Pixel, but of course these were made by people who not only don't own it but have probably never seen or touched one.
Here is a photo of the Pixel grip for the 5D MK IV. It is constructed mostly of plastic. The concern for many is the strength of the tripod mount. You can see the tripod mount from the inside of the grip in the photo. The mount is connected to a thin piece of metal that is screwed into the plastic bottom of the grip. I would not trust using this on a tripod. Clearly not Canon quality. The grip looks nice and fits nice but I would not use it a lot.
