Cheap digital reverb with some unusual sounds

This is a cheap but pretty versatile digital reverb with no less than nine different reverb flavours - hall, room, plate, echo, tile, flanger, ducking, chorus and lo-fi. It's more of a novelty reverb for special effects than your standard run-of-the-mill pedal: while it can't really compete with more expensive pedals when it comes to simulating realistic hall, room or plate, it does have a few special reverbs up its sleeve that make it very interesting for use in ambient or experimental music: echo simulates "a sound reverberated in a valley", a very spacious, yet open reverb; tile is supposed to simulate "a bathroom environment", but it feels more like a super spacious bathroom in a haunted mansion - a very unique and exquisite sound. Flanger adds a phasing effect to the reverb and the dry signal, and "ducking" is like a slow gear effect for the reverb tail, also perfect for ambient. The Mix know lets you go full wet, which makes the tile sound even spookier and the ducking beautifully ethereal.

My main quibble is with the 9-position selector switch, which is just too cheap: it doesn't click into position as clearly as you'd want it to, so occasionally you may end up between settings. Also, on my pedal the knob doesn't properly align with the lettering on the pedal; it's a few millimetres off and can't be positioned correctly, so in some positions it's not immediately clear what setting is selected. I guess something like this is to be expected at this price, but it's still a bit annoying. Overall, however, this is recommended if you're into ambient or experimental and occasionally want some of these weirder reverb sounds. Well worth the money.
