Works well, but not the best value.

This tuner does its job. It's fast, accurate, and easy to see, and has three different display modes. The down side is that it's all plastic, even the rack brackets. Be careful not to overtorque your rack screws when mounting it. Alternatively, the brackets pop off for different mounting schemes. I'm sure it would look stellar angled up at the back of a (well protected) pedalboard. At a similar price point, a TU-3 or other pedal based tuner is a much better value, but if you can score one used at a good price like I did ($30), it's great.

Look's great and it's very effective, even on lower gauge strings.

I use it atop my rack to give off a "Cylon Eye" effect. I can see it from about 80' of angles. The LEDS are bright and the tuner works very well. The only rack tuners I've seen beat it are $450+ . They only beat it in the slightest of degrees. They are not worth the extra cost in my opinion. Grab this one.

Great Tuner für reasonable price.

I really love this Tuner, especially because I can use it an read it very good as well in the darkness. And the big display helps my bad eyes.

Looks great and does its job well

PROS + Great looks + Ease of use + Cable check feature + SUPER light weight + VERY accurate. I had previously been using a cheap-o $10 tuner and this thing does wonders in comparison!

CONS - Though it hasn't given me any problems yet, the unit is made of flimsy plastic

put it in a rack as intended and try not to hit the faceplate with hammers when you're drunk

Great accurate tuner.

Moved onto this after trying the Pitchblack pedal and being impressed. Simply a tuner that works well with bass-even down to a C#.
