inexpensive, but you get what you pay for
Pros: Great value
Cons: Quality
After just a few dozen games, this blocker is already getting pretty badly worn. Pretty much all the stitching is starting to fray and in some cases unravel. The worst is at the seam between the cuff and the palm, which came half-way undone; I had to take the blocker apart and re-sew the seam. The cuff attachment seems to be the weakest part of the design.
Protection is generally decent, except that the pieces that wrap over the ends of the fingers are too loosely attached, leaving your knuckles somewhat exposed as you grip the stick.
I have the RX6 glove and RX6 leg pads as well; I'm quite pleased with both of those. But the RX6 blocker seems to be of lower quality.

Excellent Blocker for the $
Pros: Great value, Quality
This is the 2nd blocker that I have used this season. This particular blocker has the best overall padding and protection. The actual blocking surface is a bit smaller than my previous blocker, but doesn't seem to hinder blocking ability. The one complaint I have is the lack of range of motion in the thumb and palm of my hand. It is a really small complaint, but it makes getting water quickly a bit of a challenge.
With that being the only complaint, I would highly recommend this blocker to any youth or adult rec league goalie.
