Great bag, weak review. C'mon, it's a cut/paste from the FISH website:

great complement to adjustable or regular daisy chains 4 out of 5 stars

adjustable daisy chains work OK for adjustments a ways out from your harness, but they don't do well close to your harness unless you're religious about keeping twists out of your daisy chains. I find using a fifi on the top biner of the aider or into the gear itself way faster. Quick in, quick out, on to the next piece.

great for occasional aid moves, very compact. For serious aid get a ladder with a spreader bar.

For extended aid climbs these are awesome! So much less fumbly than any other aider I've tried. They are a bit big, so not great for routes with occasional aid, but if you're going to be aiding for any length of time there's none better.
