If you're not aiding, don't get it.

I don't do much aid climbing. The only thing I really use it for is for hanging my gear at the crag; it's good for hauling as well, but I haven't used it this way. The only other use I found is for testing placements when learning.
I still gave it a 4 because my friend uses it for aiding, and doesn't leave the ground without it.

great complement to adjustable or regular daisy chains

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.
No way

I hate these things with a passion! Get the adjustable daisy by yates. Much more reliable. I cliped in to my daisy one second and the next it came out...ya not fun...well maybe. Anyways overall it is good to learn to use them, so you can have a healthy hate for them!
