Great value, although a bit hot.
When running a couple of more demanding pedals this unit gets really hot. To the point where I start to worry. I could feel the heat rising through the board and the pedals temperature was around 45-50 degrees Celsius when measured..
Still works though, half a year later. Will update review if it burns out.

Does not meet expectations
PROs:
Small and compact.
A lot of power density and connectivity in small volume.
CONs:
Expensive for what the device does.
The power unit does not have power switch. Therefore it's constantly running and warm to the touch even when there's no load applied. The only way to switch it off is buy unplugging the power cable.
The DC barrel jack cables provided with the PSU are horrendous. They repeatedly detached from the distortion pedals on their own. This is the main reason why I returned the product and I am looking for an alternative.

I've been using it for several month, and with Boss ds-1 you can hear a muddy noise with around 1KHz pitch. Also I tried it with FET booster, same result. To ensure you about it - I turned the volume knob on the guitar to zero, and in this mode you can hear the noise.

Great little box, but died two weeks later
I was happy to receive this little and relatively cheap box to power my meris pedals. Sadly two weeks later it started power itself on and off and then suddenly died. I am very disappointed as its aesthetics packaging and contents "shouted " high quality.
Not sure whether it's viable to send it back to thomann for a replacement.

Will work, but...
Bought it 4 years ago as a replacement for another Harley Benton power supply and it served me fairly well for about 3 years. It must have somehow sensed the warranty ran out and started buzzing. At first I thought it might have been a faulty cable or something, but recently it started buzzing so loud I had to triple check everything and I can now confirm it's the power supply. As the warranty and return window ran out, it's just e-waste now.
It's a shame it gave out so quickly. It didn't feel cheaply built and the only complaint I've had at the time it worked was the poorly designed cable on the power adapter.
I'll probably order another Harley Benton power supply to power my secondary board that sits at home most of the time, however, the next time I need a realiable and durable product, I'll be skipping this one.
