One word: Poor! Turn depth up to 10 and you still barely hear the chorus effect. Rate is fine (as far as it's audible) below 7, higher than that and it gets wobbly and sounds like you're out of tune. Low cut and level do what they're supposed to, but the chorus effect is so weak, it's only useful as a permanent flavouring of your tone, and for that it's far to expensive. I play an Epiphone EBM-5 into a Hartke 3500 with a Harmonic Design 4x10", so it's not that the frequencies are too low to be processed. Know the Manics' "Of walking abortion" or just about any Rush tune? No way you even get close to that with this thing. Avoid it as you would the plague!
Reliability/Durability:
Haven't gigged with it (wouldn't dare to...), but unfortunately it will probably last longer than me.
Ease of Use:
Fool-proof! Four knobs: level, low cut, rate and depth. Takes 30 seconds to figure out what each one does.

Overall Rating:
I have been playing hard rock for 5 years and I am constantly looking for something to liven up certain passages of our songs, but not with this. All you get is an - albeit certainly ear-pleasing, were it there to be heard - horribly soft chorus, which is all but inaudible on the lower strings. I bought this because it's a BOSS. Do not trust brand names! Trust your ears!
