i've never personally used them, but i've seen alot of people that do. when i upgrade systems i'll probably use 1 or 2 of those. i've never heard anyone complain about issues with them, so i assume that they work fine.
 
in a process of moving into a larger tank but still haven't set it up yet so this temp holding tank have been running close to a year

i have not yet used one, but the upgrade im working on will implement one of these, i have it drilled cleaned and ready to go!
 
Lots of people use t hem. They work great with a little eggcrate in them to raise up if your going to use it as a frag tank. The only thing I didn't care for so much is when I had the frags in there you couldn't look in from the side. I use one currently as a sump and love it. Very nice and easy to work with.

They work great. One thing you may find is that the bulkhead that comes with it sometimes leaks. Some folks silicone around it and seal it up or replace it with a different bulk head.
