Very Good
Used in an acoustic/live setting: It's good. The sounds you get are very effective however I may have been better with just a regular stomp-box as my partner has one and it actually sounds better than this (obviously you don't have the variation options with a stomp box but you're splitting hairs with the variations any way).
Notes:
* I find it hasn't got good grip on the ground therefore it slides away from me mid-playing at times which will need to be sorted out. Also it slides up towards my mic-stand too which triggers the sound which is annoying.
* I at times amn't that accurate with my foot placing and end up hitting the knobs at the top therefore changing the sound/effects mid song which is a hassle.
* It's hard to know where to put your heel as if you have it on the ground you can't really get as good a sound out of it compared to if you hit it full on. They should have wrapped the rubber around the front of the device which I think would worked better.
Still though I really like the product other than the few cons.

Sturdy and good for gigging.
I switched from using a Porchboard to one of these as my on-stage stompbox, and while I like the build quality and range of sounds, I only really use the #4 setting. The one thing I don't like is that my foot was level on the Porchboard as it had an extra part for my heel. This is at an angle and so even with a heel support, it's not as intuitive for my foot to stomp on. I think for a dummer/percussionist this would great on a rack mount, but people using it with their feet might need to think about how to make it feel right on stage..

Can’t keep it from running away
I love this pedal, however it frustrates me that it won’t stay in one spot. I had to made a little bracket that I would stand on when tapping and it seems to work well. The majority of sounds are okay and a couple a very useable. I think that it fits well with a 12 bar Blues or some slow songs, however less is more.
