Feature:
3 knobs are perfect and you don't need a level knob because the volume stays the same whether the unit is switched in or out. Also, the knobs are supposed to come off and snap back in...........a safety feature so they don't break permanantly. I'm kind of rebuttaling another reviewer that obviously has no clue about this pedal.

Quality:
I've had mine on the road for about 3 years now and besides being a bit dirty, it works like new!!!!

Value:
the best sound for the least money!!!!!

Desirability:
it's a great looking pedal

Sound:
This little guy sounds better than any other flanger I've ever owned.......it's easy to get any flange sound without studying a manual. Way under rated!!

Ease of Use:
very easy

Support:
never had to call support

Overall:
I love this pedal and I own a few other small ones and they all ROCK!!

Feature:
No level control, but otherwise perfect.

Quality:
I can't give this a 10 because the soundman at a gig broke a knob off of mine. But I put it back on the unit, and it still works perfectly. So it is built to last, no question about it; and when it does break, it's not forever.

Value:
Can't be beat. I've never owned another stomp box that was a better value.

Desirability:
It has become an integral part of my tone. What can I say? It's my favorite pedal.

Sound:
I absolutely love the sound this pedal produces. Perfect vintage-style flanger. It has the tendency to thicken and beef up whatever you plug into it - So that means if you have a twittery sounding distortion pedal, plug it into the Dan-O flange and it starts to get really sweet. By itself, it is perfect for lending your tone a nice soft modulation that doesn't take over your tone. Great for use in a trio. Loses a couple of points for being a tad noisy and not being as extremely thick as some other flangers.

Ease of Use:
If you've used one flanger, you've used them all. Very easy to use.

Support:
No experience here.

Overall:
If lost or broken, I would buy another, no question about it. Far better tone and quality than others in its price range -- Hey, this is a better pedal than some of the Digitech and Boss pedals I have owned. If you're looking for a smooth, vintage flange or a little bit of modulation to beef up your tone and make you sound a little meaner, this is the guy for you.

Feature:
The knobs are a little small, and the battery compartment is a hassle to get to in a hurry

Quality:
Wouldn't want to take the plastic case on the road. Mine stays in the studio, so it's okay

Value:
Compared to other Flangers? Not really. As a cheap backup or to thicken up another pedal? Certainly

Desirability:
Like the shape. I wish Danelectro had skipped the twee names for these pedals

Sound:
I love this pedal, although it's closer to a chorus than a flanger. I would like to get a second one to try out the capacitor mod that is supposed to smooth out the sound. Sounds much better if combined with the danelectro chorus mini-pedal

Overall:
I have another flanger that is my main one, but I still pull this one out quite often. I'm glad I bought it, but not sure I'd replace it if it broke (unless I got a really good deal)

Feature:
This thing is great and quite under-rated (As are most Dan-O pedals). Three dials for sound tweakability. You can make it sound like a jet's about to emerge from your PA, or keep it nice and subtle.

Quality:
Some people say these things are "cheap", and that they expect them to break easy. However, most everyone I know that actually owns a few of these little dynamos agrees that these things are a lot tougher than they get credit for. I own 8, and snagged a couple when Dan-o started puting out the mini's a few years ago. I've never had problems with any of them at all. TOUGH, TOUGH, TOUGH.

Value:
Excellent. Mom, Dad, you want to get your kid some killer sounding effects without taking out a mortgage on the home? GO DAN-O.

Desirability:
Cool throw-back look, tough like Rocky Marciano.

Sound:
Great sound. You can modify how you want it to sound by changing the settings of the 3 dials.

Support:
Never had to use them........thus the 10

Overall:
WAY, WAY under-rated and under-utilized pedal(s). Want some great sounding pedals without spending a grand? Dan-o is the way to go.
