Perfect For The Price!
At first I bought a very cheap Lead Foot sustain pedal for around 6 euros for my novation Impulse 49, since I wanted something temporary and just for a month or so.
However, as a professional pianist using a midi keyboard, it was almost impossible for me to use it for the needed sustain feel, since it was either full sustain or none.
After getting a very generous voucher from Thomann, I decided to buy the Fatar VFP1-25.
It turned-out to be a wonderful budget friendly sustain pedal since it almost gives you the exact piano pedal.
The reason I didn't give it a five star is because it is not a very solid piece of material since you can feel a little bit of a plastic feel in parts of it, although for the price, you can not ask more than that!
Long story short, I would definitely recommend it to those in need of a quality sustain pedal, while being on budget!

Could be a bit heavier
Does what it's supposed to do. I do wish it was a bit heavier.

It works fine.
It works perfectly as a sustain pedal on my master keyboard.

Very useable budget item
Well, it's a sustain pedal, and it is versatile in that you can switch from "connection closed when pressed" to "connection opened when pressed". So it should work on all keyboards.
The first one i got had a screw missing and made "squeak" when pressed, but that was quickly remedied with a second one. I didn't even have to send in the "imperfect one" first - it pays to be friendly on the telephone, and the Thomann folks are great!

Does its job, feels sturdy
I've used mine alot in a home studio setting. It does what it is supposed to, feels stable and is responsive at a reasonable prize. I use it daily with my Yamaha CP33 without issues. Of course it doesn't support half pedaling or any such fancy features, but as an on and off pedal it works great.

Fatar VFP1-25 Review
Having used this pedal a few times, I have taken a liking to its natural feel. It also resists sliding around on the floor, which I'm sure you keyboard and piano players will find a very nice quality!
Solid reliable pedal, no problems at all.

Nice product
Love it. The only thing they should ad is rubber at the bottom so it stays in place. It moves and have to keep putting it into place. Other than that it's perfect.

A little flimsy but works well
It's a pedal and it makes keyboards do sustain. Hooray. It's been in use for about a year now without any problems, although the plastic does feel a little cheap so I wonder how long it'll last. Great for the price though, and the switchable polarity is useful for some keys that I've come across.

Very good pedal
I use this pedal for three years. It works really good.
The only real problem is that this is not a continuous pedal: it provides only binary values (pedal is either on or off).
