Ease of Use : 10
Real easy to use. Its a Boss pedal so its not complex to begin with. Same Tone Volume and Gain knobs.

Sound Quality : 8
I use mainly Humbuckers.
Great tone. It doesnt get as clean as my Fulldrive 2 but its rather clean coming from what once was a distortion pedal.
It does have a Overdrive sound to it. It makes my Fulldrive 2 seem to have less bite though. The Peptone pedal is an overdrive that has bite to it is how I would explain.
I like the low overdrive setting where is reminds me of a small fender amp like a champ that breaks up but isnt a distortion channel. With the gain on max its a bit more overdrive than the gain.
Next to my FD2 it stands real well next to it as far as tone quality.

Reliability : 8
Not sure. Its a Boss so its nothing to expect to break down.

Customer Support : 10
Havent had any problems with it so havent really needed a great amount of contact on this but made it real easy to buy this.

Overall Rating : No Opinion
If you want something that has a bit more than the FD2 or other tubescreamer clones this is great. It has amp like qulaities more than pedal like qualities, like I said the broken up fender amp with good high end.
If it were lost I may get another one.
