I have used this for years now. It was one of my main effects, it has taken a noisey backseat to other things. It was stolen from me, but returned with only little damage. The battery no longer works, but will still run from a wall wart. It has been tough. Cant beat the sounds. I really love the sound it makes on delay setting one with feedback all the way and delay time down all the way. Some nice harp effects can be made.
Good Points: Tough as hell. Wonderful sounds
Bad Points: None.
Price Paid: US$0.00

I own this and the rv3, and for reverb, this thing kicks the proverbial ass. Really nice grainy 80s digital reverb. Can do massive or small in style. I have used it for a variety of applications all with pleasing results. To me, it sounds much more convincing than a recently released reverb pedal named after a giant lizard.
Good Points: The overall sound, very effective eq, instant feedback loop, 6 distinctly different modes
Bad Points: None i can think of....
Price Paid: US$38.00

Old Boss pedal still kicking out the jams. Has second output forming yr feedback loop. Can double the delay time on it by leaving a jack in A and taking yr line out of B. Can get tiny through to massive verbs. Great percussive sounds with plate verb. Stereo outputs. Musical ping pong delay in stereo. Reverbs and delay tail rather than cut off instantly when bypassed. My first and last pedal. A major piece of my kit.
Good Points: Huge reverb... Up to 10secs! 2nd Output forming feedback loop. Nice delay. Stereo outputs.
Bad Points: Powerpack only. Background noise.

it's not the best reverb on the market today, but usable. it's small and that's why i use it. i think a reverb is neccesary for any kind of feedback audio because it's thickens up the sound in a very good way. Do not put this unit in a feedback loop, but behind, it's the last pedal before PA.
Good Points: it's small and strong
Bad Points: not the best reverb out there
