Does what it should do

Charges with 50W and balances accurate and fast while charging. Works fine after around 30 charges with 50W. After an hour charging it gets up to 50°C (room is 20°) so no need for active cooling->it is absolute silent. Best charger you can get for the price.

Decent charger while it was working, but unfortunately, it did not last. After about 3 months of occasional use (charging and/or discharging 2s packs of different capacities ranging from 1.1Ah to 5.8Ah once or twice) the charger is no longer working properly.
This doesn't really come as a surprise as it runs HOT. It seems to me the charger in its' plastic case, without any active cooling, can't get rid of the heat it generates, which now has taken its' toll on the components.
The charger is too cheap to justify the cost of shipping it back under warranty, so I'll probably open it up and have some fun with the multimeter and soldering iron to see if i can fix it. In the mean time, I'll look for a new charger....

Good little charger. Does exactly what it says it will. I'm mainly charging 1-4s, cant talk about its performance at 5s , but it has served me well.

Footnote to my review above: The plastic case is stronger than it looks. I managed to drop the charger onto a concrete floor. There was no mark on plastic or hint of a crack.

This is a low cost charger that has the functionality of much more expensive chargers. I've tested it with NiCd, NiMH and LiPo batteries, and it works well. The programming is very easy and the instructions are clear. Although called a pocket charger, it is quite large at 137 x 74 x 26mm and the case is a fairly brittle plastic. The blue backlit two-row display is typical of more expensive chargers and is easy to read. The baseplate that is used to dissipate the heat is only thin aluminium and it gets hot when dissipating the maximum 50W so I don't recommend doing any charging on your best polished wooden dining table!!! You might want to put some deeper feet on the aluminium plate to create a bigger air gap to cool the plate down.

Overall it is very inexpensive to buy, mine works well, and so far I am happy with it.
