I've had good experience with their jackets. I've been commuting in one over the past 8 winters (2 jackets) and both have served me well (in real rain it requires an overjacket too)
Mr Pilgrim uses one of their work stands and it hasn't died yet, so that has to be a good endorsement.
the muc off stuff is all "urban" range, which my experience suggests is slightly different to normal stuff.

I don't rate the stands. I've never been able to get mine to securely hold the arm in position - it just tilts with the weight of the bike. But their other gear is usually pretty good. I usually wait until there are further discounts on whatever's left and mop up them.

I’ve had a stand for many years and for the money I have no complaints. Try to build a dh bike (eg orange 222) and it’ll start to become a problem, but for general mtb tinkering it’s been great.

I've got one of there stands, they're cheap & cheerful but I've built tonnes of bikes on it. been really pleased with it for the money.

If I didn’t already have a stand I’d probably chance if for £20
