This pedal allows me to switch between the 4 channels on my Line 6 amp. The cable is quite long which is great for bigger gigs, but for small ones it is a little bit annoying as you end up with a load of spare cable lying around! Also the cable ends are a bit difficult to unplug with the plastic cover, much easier to slide it back, unplug as you would unplug any normal internet/phone cable, then slide the cover back up. These are small things that don't really affect the function of the pedal. I have only used it for a few small gigs but so far I can tell it is sturdy and works perfectly. Does exactly what I need it to!
