Feature:
Simple controls, and the tone control has a nice midrange punch so you don't need separate controls.

Quality:
Plastic case so don't throw it against the wall or use it for a hammer. It's also one of the most quiet distortion pedals I've ever played. No hum.

Value:
Best value out there. Compared to other pedals this is a steal!

Desirability:
Sexy tone, cool looking lavender color, quiet operation. Hey! Who could ask for more?

Sound:
This pedal gives you everything from tube amp brown out to a nice smooth mild distortion without the mushy bass some expensive pedals give. You can set it so that there is almost no change in your overall tone to an edgy overdrive. Overall great tone. Stick this in the front end of your classic Fender or Ampeg amp and you've got all you'll ever need. If you want toneless shredding then go buy something else. This thing has tone. It's also very quiet.

Ease of Use:
Plug it in, dial in your tone and overdrive amount and set the volume and you're done.

Support:
Don't know because it hasn't broken. Although in the past Behringer has always fixed anything that went out. But for under 25 bucks who cares? Throw it out and buy another, which is exactly what I'll do because this is a killer pedal.

Overall:
I'm fussy about my tone and I was happy with it in 2 minutes. I told my friends and they all bought one.
