I have a checkpoint. I find it to be a fun ride. I generally use it for commuting and weekend gravel riding. Its a good all-rounder. I went ahead and did the conversion to tubeless, which has turned out to be a great investment. I um.... accidently rode over a cactus on one of my first "gravel" rides and ended up with about 15 needles in the front tire, and they all sealed. I have nothing but good things to say about it except that it is a little on the heavy side. But Im satisfied with it.
