It works, but it's not that compact
This little gadget does its job, it connects two pedals and provides a crystal clear signal path.
I bought this and a slightly different offset adaptor (which allows for height differences) to use between boss and ibanez pedals, the only issue is with this device, is it requires a large space inbetween pedals, where as the offset connector does not. The resulting effect is a large gap, small gap etc etc between a line of pedals which does not look right, the way around this it would seem it to use multiple offset adapters, however when doing this the boss pedals form a zig sag pattern along the board, so there is no real solution using these straight through type connectors.
It works for a couple of pedals of the same manufacturer, but it doesn't simplify things if you have a big pedal board, you may even save space in the gap between pedals by using simple patch cables. Quality is good though, delivers what it says it will.

Flawed by design
It is pretty well made but has major flaws. For one, it cannot be used to connect pedals that have jacks not parallel to the floor. If that was the case, the adapter would put a lot of pressure on the jacks and damage the circuit boards that they're soldered to. The other disadvantage is that if you used these adapters to connect all your pedals and one of them broke down, you would have to remove all your effects from the board just to disconnect a single pedal. This adapter could be vastly improved by making its center section flexible. That way there would be no risk of damaging the pedals.

Thumbs up
I got this for free with a pedalboard i bought and this is nice to connect pedals if you can waste some space on your board.

review of sssnake Effect Pedal Adapter
Does the job but are a bit flimsy compared to other designs however you can get at the wire inside if ever you had to could attempt to repair them. Saying that they are that cheap that you can afford to have lots of spare replacements in your kit. If you don't use them roughly they will last a good bit of time.

Little and useful
It's a great adapter for small pedalboards (or any pedalboard with a lot of pedals and not so much space).
It doesn't give you the tightest/closest pedal spacing as the metal space between where the two jacks end can be also achieved with normal patch cables, but it saves you from all that cable between every pedal. Shortens the signal path and decreases any possible disconnection.
and of course, it's only suitable for pedals whose jack input/outputs have about the same position on the side of the pedal.

Cheap, poor quality
Broke after a week.

Good connector
Good connector which is mainly intended for use for connecting pedals on pedal boards. Overall good quality although the overall length could have been a bit shorter? Your pedals will be quite spaced apart from each other with this. Not necessarily a good thing if you want to fit in more pedals. Personally I would use cables instead of this one. Of course this is best suited for use with similar pedals? indeed the jack connectors of the pedals need to be aligned at the same height on the edge of the pedal etc. since this is not a flexible cable.

Looks smaller than it is
I bought this product to reduce the empty space between my pedals on the pedal board. Although the cable clutter is limited, the space between pedals is actually increased. So keep that in mind.
Apart from that, I cannot comment on the sound quality since the differences are negligible compared to other alternative products.

This is a solid good quality connection but..... If you are thinking of using it to connect guitar pedals and thus avoid lots of cable mess there can be some issues.
If the input jack on the pedals is not at the exact same height these inflexible connectors can put strain on the pedals input jack when you press down on the pedal with your foot. Over time this can damage the pedals. So if you are sure the jack height is the same (eg. when connecting pedals from the same manufacturer) then fine. But otherwise flexible connectors are better in my view.

Space Saver!
This is a good tool for saving space and increasing your much needed pedal board real estate! I would recommend these to anyone putting a board together - the only thing about them to consider is whether or not your pedals inputs are the same height - if so, you're on to a winner. Will buy again.
