Generous dimensions, very nice workmanship, materials & design: wish they'd add rechargeability
Generous dimensions, overall very nice workmanship, materials & design--but mine arrived with kinks in the zippers at the two leading corners...& after carefully zipping around them--not even gigging with it yet, in the slow start-up for bands after Covid & no busking in the snow, so, have probably only zipped/unzipped fewer than a half-dozen times...and the zipper at one corner has come loose from its fabric backing, & the passing zipper mauled the teeth out of shape. Can't even zip *around* the hole, as both zippers have come off & can't be wrangled back on track without making a clean slice of the damaged teeth, which would leave a track-gap they'd again fall out of.Guess I'll find out if the warranty's any good. :(My wish list for this form factor: rechargeability (& maybe higher millamp floors for outlets)--even a more 'battery-available' "mother (input)" voltage [for the built-in power supply] so I could power it without an outlet...but, a very nice pedalboard, if not all units arrive with 'kinked' zippers...they're not very robust zippers in the first place, so even a slight kink can set them up for quick failure, sadly. Let's see how Gokko addresses this.)

Pedal Board Review
I really enjoy that their is more than just 9v spots in the power supply it comes with. Makes this a very awesome option for people like myself that are new to using pedals. The only small complaint I have is the velcrow it came with was a little wrinkled making it hard to place down straight but its not even a huge issue. Im impressed:)

onboard power could use some tweaks
onboard 12V power only rated for 300mA. some preamps use 500mA+ which means using another power supply. nice board though.

Perfect!
Finally the right size for me with installed power supply.

Very well made. Well thought out.
I was surprised at how sturdy this pedal board is. I thought there may be some flex in it due to the aluminum construction but the aluminum rails have nice channels and reinforcement in them. This also gives you a nice place to tuck wires. The rubber feet are dense and seem very sturdy. I can see potentially losing these by dragging the pedal board or somehow flexing these out of the c channel they are wedged in and having to source replacements but you could probably find something suitable in a hardware store if that ever happened.The power supply itself is a run of the mill 18volt 1.5 amp switch mode unit that feeds into a power distribution box with five 9 volt 100mA, two 9 volt 300 MA, one 9 volt 500mA, one 12 volt 300mA, and one 18 volt 100 mA outlet. So, if you have several higher demanding pedals you may have to supplement with a separate power supply. There's also a USB port to power your tablet or phone, as well as an input and output.The unit ships with 10 power cables, one for each output on the power supply. It also ships with a generous amount of hook and loop tape to secure your pedals if you prefer that to zip ties. It all comes packaged in a nice canvas carrying case with a shoulder strap and large front pocket for storing cables, the power adapter, and other items.I'm really impressed by this pedal board. It really provides a lot of versatility and functionality. I didn't need this much space because I don't run a lot of pedals but what's nice about a board this size is that I can drop my amp's 2 and 4 button pedals right on the board and move all of them at once instead of having a tangle of pedals and cords all over the floor. Very cool.Update: Something I recently realized about the power supply provided is that it's 18V 1.5 amp but if you were to use all 10 outputs at their max rated capacity you'd be pulling 2 amps. If you have that many devices and you're using that much power you may need to look at buying an aftermarket 18V switch mode power supply capable of providing that much power.Update 6/12/21: After using this for some time I realize one thing that I'm not a super huge fan of and that's the orientation of the power supply. It faces outwards which means if you do transport it in the supplied bag to gigs or anything you have to pull all of the power leads out of the power supply. I think a better way to have gone about this would've been to have the 1/4" jacks, the USB and aux input all facing out, but the power connections facing in. I'm debating if I want to bother turning it inboard just so I don't have to disconnect all the power leads when I stow my pedal board.Update 7/12/21: I lifted up the hook and loop tape and just switched the power supply around so that all of the connections were inboard. Far preferable this way as I don't have to disconnect all of the power plugs whenever I put the pedal board in the bag to store or transport. I did also picked up a delay and reverb pedal that both used 300mA and ended up having to add a power supply if I wanted all of my 100mA pedals to have power. It's a large board, that can easily handle more than 9 pedals but you may have to add additional power if you do so.

All The Pedal Board You Need
This is a good quality pedal board. It's as sturdy as any on the market and you get two large rolls of velcro. Enough for all your pedals with plenty left over. There are no instructions, so I'm attaching an image of the power supply. There are eight 9v outputs. Five are 100mA, two are 300mA, and one is 500mA. You also get one 12v 300mA output and one 18v 100mA output. All of them are center negative. I've never even owned a center positive pedal and I have way more than what will fit on this board. I don't think I've ever owned a pedal that requires more than 500mA either. In other words, this board should satisfy the needs of 95% of guitarists. I also need to note that there is no discernible noise. My pedals sound great. The carrying bag has velcro straps to secure the board when transporting. I don't gig, but it's definitely gig worthy. Love it!

Great pedal board
This is a great setup for anyone who has pedals. I am new to playing the guitar and only have three pedals but I really liked it. It was easy to set up. Instructions were great. The cables were all super helpful. The velcro is sturdy and strong. This is a great pedal board.
