Value for money.
Does a really good job for the price. Is robust enough if you don't stamp on your boxes in big boots.

Cheerful Price, Only Some Limitations.
Hmmm...I have several of the effect pedals in Behringer's excellent "budgety" range and I think they are great. Well made, thoughtfully designed, easy to use. Creatively, they are good to work with as they are intuitive (you turn nobs until it sounds right- it's not a mission to Mars type software bore). So, the Compressor/Sustainer : how is it? I am using it for electric guitar work being fed in to a mutitrack recorder, the notion being that compression should help parts to "blend"in rather than sounding like a guitar part is STUCK-ON to another piece of music. And do you know what?...it does that. It' is also good for punchy bass guitar and keyboards that sound less muddy. Just one thing...with the Sustain effect (it works) turned up, there is a lot of noise and hiss coming from the unit- unfortunately this is a bit like having a stone in a running trainer: it doesn't STOP me enjoying the other features, but every now and again "CROWNCH!" there it is. Mocking my dreams.I'm renaming it Compressor and Gramophone Sampler.

I'm puzzled why I didn't take the plunge soon!
Excellent and above and beyond 👌! Perfectly pure torns across all the strings and no variations in pitch! With an attack and sustain options that will greatly benefit your addition chosen pedal such as distortion, overdrive and my others. I'm puzzled why I went so long without one. I'm delighted I took the plunge 😁👍!

Great pedal
Excellent pedal. Basically a BOSS pedal for half the price

Good, could be better
Stiff knobs and quite difficult to dial in a sound. A lot of the effect is at the start of the potentiometers, so feels like the circuit could be extended slightly to compress more. Just a feeling.

Big fan of this
I really like this. I've put off getting a compressor for so long as didn't really understand the point of it. But wow, what a difference it's made. The sustain is amazing. The equalisation of volume is really good too. Had made playing easier and more enjoyable.As with all Behringer pedals the adjustment of knobs is very sensitive but once you find your sweet spot it's great.

Good, but...
Not a bad little pedal, does the job it's supposed to do, the only real problem with it is that it's not true bypass, so it changes the sound of the guitar. For instance, it made mine way too bassy. The casing is a little cheap-feeling, but I think it would stand up to normal use.
