Great pedal for the price. The sound is not the best, but this pedal is also a lot cheaper than other loop pedals. It does the job.

Very well made and robust. Very simple operation, no bells and whistles. Was perfect for what I needed it for which was mostly just playing around home. No complaints and would recommend

Love it

I was in search for not too expensive looper, for home practice, and I'm glad for this purchase. Looper is easy for use, and it does what it should. Build quality is robust and I dont have any complaints. Only cons if I must say is that is no battery option. I would highly recommend this product.

A good looper.

This is my first looper and I wouldn't like to spend a lot for it. It is decent and quality made. It sounds good. I have no regret of buying it.

great for the money

I use it to practice my solos.prefect size and easy to use. the only con it has it doesn't have a battery and does not come with a power supply.so if that's ok I recommend it if you are on a tight budget .

Does what it's supposed to

I've had a few moments where the beginning of the loop had a small click/snap, but overall it's a really good tool for this price.

Great for starting out, needs a few tries to understand which way is the best to use it and from that moment on you can get on stage and start doing your magic.

You get what you pay for.

Im not a big looper user - once in a while, when the mood hits me, you know. That's why I decided to get this one - one knob, small size and affordable prices pedal.

The issues that I have with the pedal are - once I recorded a line, I can add overdubs to it, but I can not delete it. I tried it as well with the free provided software - no result. So I have this line forever.

The second thing is the double tap is quite uncomfortable for me.

Now the pedal is in its box in the closed, unusable.

A great way to get into looping!

I use this looper for home use for songwriting and getting ideas down. It's great value and the build quality is fantastic.

It takes a little bit of time to get your head around how to use it but once you master it its is a really handy tool to have.

my only real issues are that it can be a bit fiddly to use as its so small and occasionally it glitches after about 3+ tracks are layered and makes a nasty sound but this is not all the time. and a power supply would be nice to have with the pedal.

I would recommend this product to anyone that wants to get into looping for not a lot of money, and for someone that travels that wants to write ideas and songs on the go.

All in all a lovely little pedal that I have been using for a while now and the reliability is so far so good after about 2 years.

really good for the price

Pretty clunky, but once you understand it it's decent. Definitely not good for professional stuff, it can't process your loop automatically, you need to nail it which is kinda of a downside, but for the price, what more can you ask of it.

Only for use with amps

Make no mistake, this is a lo-fi looper with audible digital noise present. Since I didn't use it with guitar and amp the noise was a bit too much for me. It is a very simple, no frills looper that can come handy if you just want to add a loop here and there, but don't expect to be able to do more serious performances on it.

Great little looper

If you need a simple one button looper, just go for it. There's no need to pay more money.

The only drawback it the "one button does it all" design that can be confusing at times, but you'll have this problem with any looper of similar design

Once again harley benton

Good quality, easy to use, solid construction and rigid.

At the beginning, while reading the comments and watching reviews i was not convinced with the pedal, but after buying it, the 10 minutes total that dis pedal can loop, are more than enough to record a whole track in base guitar, loop it, record the harmonization of that guitar, loop it and play the lead guitar on top of it as if there were 3 guitars playing, and that its very pleasant to do.

I would add that it doesn't comes with a power supply cable, but this is common for pedals.

I can firmly recommend it.

Great price and easy to use, Build quality brilliant

I bought a different brand one of these on ebay, same price.

Some difference in quality!

This is miles ahead of the other one and better build quality by miles

Add in, Better specs, ease of use,

Do not be fooled by the eBay ones. get this,

This little babby is 1000% superior in every aspect.

Great little pedal to have.

Nice mini looper

Does the trick nicely, feels sturdy and works well with guitar (used with octave/ bass and distortion effects earlier in the chain with no issues).

It's tricky to get the timing on loops right, but that's a case of practice, not a fault with the pedal. The fault is with me!;)

Would definitely recommend, especially if it is your first looper, fantastic value for money.

Click noise recorded!

Would be a good thing if it didn't have that "click" noise each time loop re-starts! Very annoying if you need a constant drone or anything that does not need separate click as this can throw you off, acting as a rhythm click when not really needed. I think its the switch that click and gets into the start of the recording. Very annoying. I dont think this to be a malfunction but rather the feature of this affordable looper pedal. Shame really.

Unbeatable price

Unbeatable price for a very nice unit! Bought it for my nephew, he is using it with electric guitar Gibson. Comes with very nice package with magnet holder! If you are purchasing this one notice that it doesn't work with battery, so you need to buy or use external power supply!

Very noisy pedal

Good functional, but noisy as hell. Producing the hum and buzz

Poor quality. Don't buy for gigs for sure. Maybe in a quiet place, you won't hear the noise but when connected to the 4x12 stack very annoying hum appears

Weird handling

I wish the handling was a bit better as it doesn't always respond that well so the stop and like layer options are sometimes confused so you get weird sounds.

The volume knob is also not always that good and your signal and layers can get lost in the mix very easily.

Brilliant for the money

I bought this for a home set-up, I was looking for something that is simple just to make some rhythm loops for playing over. You can add to and overdub just a single loop. The pedal remembers the last recorded loop when unplugged. Obviously this could be a very complicated loop with multiple overdubs, once you've recorded an overdub onto the loop, the overdubbed loop is then the loop. You can't go back a step, or strip away overdubs. It's very basic. I'm probably over explaining it.

Its really simple to use and apart from overdubbing has no real features barring of course volume control (it plays back slightly muted even at full volume).

I'm very happy with it. There are some very good youtube reviews out there that explain it.

I've really enjoyed it for the last few months.

It's value for the money. Very solidly constructed.

You need an unsupplied power supply (a/c adapter), and if in the UK or Ireland better off getting one with the correct UK plug anyway. So buy it from a UK or Irish website.
