Tossed it in the garbage and went back to the old standby there. Hard to be something that just works.

If you plan to use the tools and either know or plan to learn how to use them then its a very good deal, not the most amazing bargain but you're making off with a great savings over new. If they'll sit and collect dust its a waste of 50.00
If you have, as does the thread originator, five bikes from the 80s, you need a crank puller, some cone wrenches, a lock ring spanner, or two. And, that Maillard tool can be used to open beer bottles. What's not to like?
