I found the pedal to be quite good but having never used a double kick before I don't have much to compare it to. I would say that I have used the product for about 30 hours roughly and it is still working, well sort of . The way the axle that comes from the second pedal to attach to the beater side uses 2 screws to attach to a square peg. This peg rounded off quickly and then began to detach the axle rendering the pedal unusable as a double pedal as after about 8 hits it falls off. Think I would recommend to buy a slightly more expensive pedal if you were serious about double bass.
