Just like anything else, some like them, some don't.
On fast equipment, 9-ball, you can break mid-speed with little effort and get a good result. Easy to control the cue ball.
8-ball or 10-ball, where a harder break is needed, it is a little more difficult to generate a hard break.
The person who has one jumps with a full cue like a mad man. Very usefull if jumps are allowed but no jump cues.
These are just a few things I have observed from the people I know who have them. I can't use it, the weight (or lack of) breaks my rythm. I break good with my BK2 so I only tired it a few times.
Just one player's opinion. Try someone's before buying, it is either a love or hate thing.

Not a fan. Too light. If you have a very wristy break then you might like it, if you prefer to power through your break the lighter nature of the cue becomes, IMO, counter productive.
I do agree it is an incredible full cue jump cue. Many players here bought one as soon as they came out and many are going back to their old breakers and just keeping it for jumping.
Just my 2 cents.
