"Best bang for your buck!"

Feature:
The unit ships with a power supply..that's right, Zoom actually included the neccessary adapter! Why dosen't every manufacturer do this? I'm pretty sure most of us won't mind the slight increase in cost as opposed to having to shop around for adapters.

Quality:
A sturdy metal casing with a very stable pedal and hard rubber endcaps makes for a rather physically reliable unit. You could throw this puppy at an obnoxious fan and not worry about damage. The beutiful red finish accented by chrome switches is downright sexy! I dig this unit so much I'm buying a backup for it.

Value:
This is the absolute BEST bang I've gotten for my buck in a long time if not ever. You couldn't ask for more features in something at this price range.

Desirability:
Like I said this is an attractive piece of gear, one look and I was intrigued, not to mention the sounds are amazing.

Sound:
unlike a lot of bass multi effects, EVERY preset in the B2.1u kicks out full round tones that are appropriate for bass. Although the tones in this monster will make you stand out live or in a mix you won't be likely to have an intimidated guitarist ask you to go to a "clean" tone.

Ease of Use:
Even though dialing up sounds is pretty easy, it took me a few tries to figure out how to change parameters within certain settings, but it's nothing that should cause worry. Most (almost no) users will have any trouble at all.

Support:
No idea yet, I haven't experienced a problem.

Overall:
No pedal does it all, but this comes so close that I haven't been window shopping for a pedal since I picked it up months ago. Because I'm able to dial so many really interesting yet useful sounds on this unit, I don't wonder about the possible sounds I could get out of my other pedals. I can just focus on crafting great basslines.

"Zoom B2.1U Review"

Feature:
So many in fact that It takes a long long time to master this pedal. Tuner, eq, the effects, expression pedal, it is loaded! All for a great price. Has a lot more to offer than the Line 6 stuff-but again harder to master.

Quality:
The b2 and g2 line of zoom pedals are the best the company has ever produced-built like a tank in a sturdy soild metal chassis. Gig all the time with this thing.

Value:
The zoom is loaded with a ton more features than units costing twice, even three times as much, and is built as good-if not better than these units--It represents a fantastic value.

Desirability:
good design, nice color, stupid question.

Sound:
extremely quiet, tons of great/good sounding effects. Synth sucks though IMO. Extremely versatle and can be used to great effect in a variety of styles.

Ease of Use:
Major learning curve on this badboy, but well worth it.

Support:
Its so well built I don't think I will ever have a problem--I'll give a 9 by default. website is good, intruction booklet could be better.

Overall:
I gig wit it, practice with it, record with it, do most of my tone shpaing with it. Sure some boutique pedals I own do certain individual things better than the Zoom (distortion for example) but none come close to this mfx pedal as an all in one unit.
