It's not so much unreliable (quite little to go wrong with it), but 
more like clumsy & marginal optical quality....I wouldn't go larger 
than a 10cm tall print....but given its 360 degree swing (often 
nearly twice that), taller doesn't make much sense anyway, at least 
not for fun applications.

Neither is it as easy to carry around on a city trip as the SpinShot.
OTOH, you need a darkload bag for the Spinshot....rewinding has to be 
done in the dark (with the back slightly open, otherwise there is too 
much friction).
