Gator GPT pedalboard?

I'm looking for a small powered pedal board option. Everything I run is 9 volt and I'll only be running 5 pedals. Is the self powered system on this set up reasonably good quality for a moderate gigger? The price (109.99) is hard to argue with.

I use one and it's done the job well. Plenty of adapters, adequate space for a small-medium sized board and well made. I do wish the case had a shoulder strap, but it's a minor complaint. I've used it at least twice a week for the past year.

I got a gator board. I don't swear by it but it does the job.

Been using a Gator board for a few years now. Never had any trouble with the power supply. The thin power cord worries me sometimes, but it hasn't broke yet.
The size is just right. Holds about 8 pedals, enough to add some less frequently used pedals, but not enough to go all-out effects crazy and end up with a stupid heavy pedalboard.
The board itself is built sturdy and has held up well to rough floors. The handle is big and comfortable to hold for the weight (mine is loaded up to 20 pounds with all the extras packed in the storage pocket). I too wish it had metal rings to attach a shoulder strap to for hands free carry.

My guitarist uses one. I think he likes it just fine for what he does with it.
