Is Wizz Air strict with hand luggages sizes?

With Ryanair I always take my big backpack (60 L but not completely filled) in hand luggage. It is a bit bigger than hand luggage size requirements, but it always passes (the weight is less than 10kg). Would it also pass with Wizz Air, or are they much stricter?
Stories of experiences are welcome!

Apparently they are strict:
The airport staff can get nasty if your bag is just millimeters bigger than their checking box. Although we've never experienced it, they do random checkups at the gate, and if you exceed the size limit, you'll have to pay around 60 euros.

  • Flying from the UK with Easyjet - will I need to visit the check-in desk if I already have printed off boarding passes & only hand luggage? I'm flying abroad later in March (from Manchester), just for 3 days, so I only need to pack a small carry on/hand luggage. We've been sent our boarding passes already and we can check in from tomorrow (28th), but I've never been through the airport without calling at the check-in desk first. What do I do? Go straight to security? I'm not sure. Any help and directions would be ideal!
  • Can Air Koryo join One World if North Korea and South Korea get united and Air Koryo buys more Airbus or Boeing planes? Korea already has Star Alliance (Asiana) and Skyteam (Korean Air) airlines. If Kim jong un dies and these two Korea become one Korea, can Air Koryo join One World after buying more newer planes like the A320 or 737?
  • Tobacco in hand luggage? I'm going to Czech tomorrow and would like to bring back some tobacco, preferably 250g. Problem is, we're departing from a small airport when we fly back to London and they don't have cigarettes/tobacco in their shops. Can I buy the tobacco in town and put it in my hand luggage as that's all I'm taking Will I be stopped at security for having it?
