Sorry for not looking elsewhere, but I'm in a hurry with this. Can anyone give me some feedback on this? Is it any good? Will it last long? How's the response and everything? Thanks.

For more information, please refer to the metal pad discussion topic. From what I read, those pads aren't that great and the bar can't really handle much if any weight. Note acrylic panels break or crack easily. Look for a pad w/ poly carbonate ones. The only plus about this pad is it has a metal frame. I suggest to look at a different cheaper pad w/o a bar and mod a bar yourself to it. Decent metal pad w/ poly carbonate panels are $100 on ebay.

No, its not going to last, bluntly put. If you are looking for sensitivity and durability, the Cobalt Flux pad is the best. If you are looking for something not quite as tough, but still good, the Red Octane metal pad is probably second best. I do not trust eBay pads, especially the NEO pads. Grrrrr
