I have been thinking of trying one, someone must have tried it?? Seems like the double is selling well.

I am impressed with the binoculars but have yet to get my hands on a doubler yet.
Great price with HD glass

Yup, I've got a doubler.

I've also got a set of vortex razors and a set of viper binos. It seems the better the binos, the clearer the doubler looks. Razors vs vipers there is a slight difference in clarity without the doubler. With the doubler, the Razors seriously outperform.

You definitely need either a tripod or another steady surface, as hand holding with the doubler is pretty shaky.

I don't think it is a replacement for a spotting scope - but at 400 yards it is the difference between knowing if that buck is just a big one or a booner.
