Good but disappointing
I'm a keyboard player at a church here in Dublin so as expected I need a reliable sustain pedal to use at home for practice, during rehearsals and during the services. I've owned 2 of this specific model of sustain pedal.
In the beginning I was very pleased. It did exactly what it said on the tin, sustains the note with no problem. However the price gives away a hint, it's not great in the long run. The build quality is impressive to the naked eye however the internals of the sustain pedal don't seem to last.
As I said, I've gone through 2 of these pedals already and the same issue arose. After maybe 3-4 months of consistent use, the pedal was worn out and ceased to function correctly. After purchasing another pedal within about 2 weeks of the first one failing, I began to run into the same issues, premature failure.
Great build quality for sure but it doesn't last. I wouldn't recommend it as a pedal to use in the long run. Maybe at home for practice but you wouldn't want your pedal failing live. It's certainly not worth it.

Mixed feelings
Worked very well for the first couple of weeks, then it started randomly getting stuck when being released.

M-Audio SP-2
The M-Audio SP-2 initially looks like a great pedal. Solid feel and a switch on the bottom the for flexibility. If you use this pedal a lot there is a complaint with the 2 screws that hold the metal pedal in place can come undone. This is easily fixable with a cross-head screw driver to tighten them up (as long as you haven't lost them!!!) Overall a good pedal.

It's an okay pedal for the price
I bought this pedal twice, the first one broke after 2 years the cable connection on the back end is not really well thought through, so don't lean it agains the wall and you're good.
