An interesting alternative to the usual chorus circuits
This pedal appears to be a low-cost take on the Boss Dimension C chorus, at least in appearance. There are no knobs, just 4 buttons that can be used in any combination. The sound is subtle, and a nice alternative to the more common types of chorus. And at this price, it's hard to fault it too much.
But I did notice that the input level affects the results - a pair of fairly hot humbuckers on a Les Paul and the output from a Dreadbox Erebus synth both yielded a noticeable pitch shifting. Lower output single coils on a T-Style guitar worked better, and added a subtle widening to the sound.
With a solid-feeling metal construction and a low price, it's worth a look if you want an out-of-the-ordinary chorus effect. But it's definitely in the budget end of the spectrum.

Fine but not great
I'm not blown away by this pedal. I would love to compare it to the original Boss Dimension and see how it holds up. Unfortunately I am too cheap to buy one. But I should think the Boss sounds a bit more inspiring. Otherwise, a fairly pleasant chorus with not a lot of depth or modulation. Build quality is OK, metal housing is good. Switch feels a bit scratchy. Fine for the price but if you want the proper Dimension sound you might just have to buy that instead.

Good value
I used to have a real Dimension C pedal from the 80s. This one doesn't have that magic tone, but it's still a nice chorus and good value for the money. It's built like a tank and the user interface is just kick ass! Give it a go.
