A good entry level chorus
This was a gift to a guitarist that never had a chorus before. I did get a chance to do a round of testing with it myself.
Pros:
- Very usable chorus sound
- Quite a wide range of controls to get from the most subtle to flange territory
- Very affordable and good value for money
Cons:
- Not the highest quality HB pedal, for example, the HB looper feels a lot more solid.
- Takes a lot of space
- Does add a colour to the tone
Overall, this is a perfectly acceptable option and the person who was the gift for enjoys it immensely, but this is a case of you get what you pay for (that is not true for all HB pedals). The button does not feel very high quality neither do the knobs and it feels a bit flimsy. The tone is altered when the pedal is in the chain and is altered even more when the pedal is engaged, even if the effect levels are subtle. It is not a bad tone per se but be aware.
In conclusion, I would definitely recommend to those who would like to try a chorus but if you are serious about your chorus save some money and go a price point higher.

Good Value-Quality-Price Deal
For this price, I could not expect more from this pedal....
Very sensitive knobs setting, offers a very deep and cold chorus, which I like very much.
Metal casing, which proves to be very durable as compared to plastic casing pedals, a fits for heavy duty live situation.
I would recommend anyone to purchase this chorus pedal Custom Line from Harley Benton.

Nice Chorus...
Let me start by saying I built an entire back up pedalboard from HB pedals for less than the cost of ONE pedal from my main pedalboard!
That said…
If you are building a pedalboard on a budget, or just looking to add a little sparkle to your tone… buy this pedal!
It takes a little tweaking to get it to sound right, but come on, there are only 3 knobs… you can find just about any chorus sound you need!
You would be hard pressed to find a chorus pedal that sounds this good at this price!
And the color is NICE too!

Solid Chorus at a Great Price
Disclaimer: I was sent this pedal for a review
Overall, this is a solid pedal. The color is gorgeous, the metal casing is solid, and the sounds are what you'd expect from a chorus pedal. It has a wide range of tones available with the three controls. Rate controls the speed, Depth is how severe the chorus effect is, and Intensity is a mix knob for your wet and dry signals. Especially for the price, this pedal is fantastic. I do kind of wish that it was shaped more like other pedals (thinking TC or EHX) just for uniformity, but that's such a small complaint it's not worth taking a star off. Also, let's be real. While the sound is very good, it's not going to outclass the chorus pedals that run 4+ times the price. It will keep up with the chorus pedals 2-3 times the price though.

First of all it works for both electric and bass guitars nicely. I really liked the features, sound and quality for this item. I highly recommend...

a chorus
excellent workmanship, more controls (intensity) - a very warm sound, quiet as well. In short if you want a chorus of quality but without spending too much trust in this custom line of harley benton, are really nice pedals.

An OK chorus pedal
I can't complain too much because it's really cheap, but I've found it sucks volume/tone a bit, and so should have some way to counteract this, and probably should be stereo for a 'custom line' pedal. To be honest, I should have returned this and gotten something else, but I left it too long for the 30 day return. But it sounds OK, and was cheap. so....
