"Build properly, it would be a great product, but it's unreliability totally ruins it. Sorry Dunlop."

Sound:

Sounds great. No complaints in this appartment

Feature:

Not anything extraordinary but cool.

Quality:

Although it's a great effect, it is also a piece of crap. I bought it 3 years ago and it was broken after a month and a half, and I wasn't a gigging guitarist at the time. I was just a bed room rock star. One day I came home and the speed knob didn't work. I didn't drop it or anything, it just out of the blue stopped working. I had heard similar stories when I bought it, but took a chance and got burned. It's a great effect, but you have about a 50% chance at buying a lemon. You have been warned.

Manufacturer Support:

It's been three years now and my prized Univibe has been collecting dust the entire time. I honestly can't say how good their service is because I was so pissed at them, that I never bought another Dunlop product again, not after dropping 250 big ones on crap in a shiny metal casing. I've tried to have it repaired locally, but know one seems to want to touch them. They all tell me to go buy something else because even with repair, it will just break again in a few months. Hughes and Kettner has a version that sounds almost identical and is much more reliable, but also much more expensive. So I've therefore given up on having a rotary effect in my arsenal.

Value:

Useless. A pedal is no good if it doesn't work.

The Wow Factor:

It looks very cool, but that's about all it does.

Overall:

Individual experiences may vary, but I've heard to many people complain of it's unreliability. If I were you I would not take the chance.
