Any Thoughts On Surly Cross-Check?

I was talking to a tech at an REI location today and he was telling me about the hybrid bikes that the staff likes. He told me that the Cannondale line of Quick bikes seem to fly out of the store. But, he said a Surly Cross-Check REI carries is often popular with the customers. I know a little about Surly, but always think of their bikes as being heavy and built to carry a lot of weight. Does anyone have experience with this model? I know that it has drop bars and kis used for cycle cross, but I also was told it makes a good road bike with a hybrid side for light trails.
Thanks!
