"SUPERFLY!!"
I love this pedal, I don't plan on ever upgrading unless i break or lose it somehow. Other than that, I think i'll keep it for life.
Sound
The dual beater creates different possibilities for sound, as well is the infinite tension adjustment system.
Features
Double chain is awesome, incredibly fast. Beaters are nice, tension system has unlimited possibilities. I like the drum key on the footboard. Would have liked a toe guard on pedal, so foot doesnt get caught in chain.
Quality
Very well made, no problems yet.
Value
A little high on the price, but you get what you pay for.
Manufacturer Support
no experiences yet.
The Wow Factor
The bright red footboards, shiny black connector, and silver pedals are SEXY to say the least.

"A nice pedal, but left pedal doesn't seem to perform as well as the right."
As I said before, the right pedal is nice. It's smoothe and powerful, the left pedal...well not liking it unless I'm playing heel-up.
Sound
Main pedal is nice, but the left pedal drags a lot making an un-even sound. It's almost as if some of the work my left foot is doing is lost. Not fond of that. A left pedal should feel like the right pedal, and it doesn't on this DW set.
Features
Nice features. One problem is the connecting shaft; it tends to come off over time no matter how tight I make it screw.
Ease of Use
Nice, easy to clamp and adjust.
Quality
Very good quality. Solid.
Value
Price too high.
The Wow Factor
Looks like a sweet pedal.

"Simply the best"
Dont hesistate, buy it. It's heavy, powerfull, extremly fast ! AD offcenter cam increase the speed on every beat, it's incredible, and much better than other brands offcenter cam wich break really quick
Sound
Monster sound, heavy beat, it's really powerfull, perfect for the music i play
Features
Maybe it would be better if option accessories weren't option, so if they were given with the pedal
Quality
!!!!!!! UNBELIVABLE ! Simply the best stuff you can buy. Everyone knows DW quality is the best all over the world with AXIS. You cannot compare this pedal with a s*** like Iron Cobra, Janus 7500, or Pearl Eliminator ... It won't break ! I play intensive metal 8hours each day, i use it on every concert, and it doesnt break, it won't break !
Value
We can't say it's espensive as the quality is incredible. You'd really better buy this one than any other pedal wich will break quick. Spend 350$ for this one instead of buying a f**** Tama that you'll have to change everymonth ...
Manufacturer Support
I suppose the support is as good as the rest, but i didn't call them yet cos the pedal has not any problem
The Wow Factor
Definitly DW. Maybe i'll play on 9002 series, but there are not many differences. Red & Black color give a good look to the pedal
