This line of pedals is a great entry-level/affordable effects option if you want to experiment with new sounds, but it's equally good if you know what you want, and what you want is nothing fancy or bizarre sounding, just some perfectly "standard" effects.
And this particular unit is one of the most handy and usable distortion units of the line IMHO.
It provides a great range of distortion tones, and most of them perfectly usable/suitable for metal, hard rock, etc.
I mean, it's not easy to find a bad setting in this pedal, one that generates a truly disgusting sound (unlike other units... like the ultra metal or the heavy metal... which require some precaution in their knob tweaking).
The enclosure is plastic, and replacing the battery is a little bit tricky, but that's very easy to tolerate when you see the price tag.
And, It just sounds good to me. I have no complain.
