A truly metal experience
I brought this pedal because I needed a cheap alternative for a tour situation. Was very pleasantly surprised, not only the two effects are very distincted, but also the sound changes provide alot of possibilities and styles. The gain regulation can work also if you want to trow some dirt on your blues. Levels and volume are very detailed for his price range. Thebox is in metal so it's not easy to break. Only reason for no five stars are the knobs that look a little fragile. If you have to start with ametal pedal buy this one.

Great Value for money
Great pedal. For the full range of sounds that this pedal is capable of you need to put the guitar signal first through a compressor then into the Extreme Metal pedal.
it's very good for the price.

A handy shortcut to metal!
Bought this on a whim to explore some more extreme gain territory in a way I could switch on with my feet. Very usable tones in general if you're not too fussy, and a great way to get a satisfying metal "chug"! The boost switch is probably better left ignored - it seems to send the pedal into unusable territory, so it's probably best not to buy this with the intent to use that function as a boost for solos - it just ends up hissy. Slight issues with the construction of mine - very sturdy casing, but occasionally the connection fails and needs to be switched on and off again a few times to make it work again. Probably an easy fix, but I haven't been too bothered - I mostly use it at home anyway!

Good quality good value
Clone of the Electro Harmonix Metal Muff
Great build quality, Silent dosent hiss or hum with no input, good bypass, good controls, good range of sounds and tones availiable, boost works great with compressor placed infront of it. not sure about the extreme metal name, its no HM2 (no chainsaw/buzzsaw swedish death metal tone) but overall I would say a good general Metal distortion pedal.

Good sound, but noisy
This pedal has a great metal sound (I love it!). Ideal for lead lines. The only thing that lets me down is that I have to switch of the pedal immediatly after playing, because it can be very noisy.
Good value for the money though...

Harley Benton Extreme Metal
It sounds great in front of a Laney LC30-ii, great sound, not harsh at all.
At first, I thought it was average when I was using it for recording direct into an audio interface.
An amp makes all the difference.

Good value for the price
As pretty much everyone knows, Harley Benton makes really affordable, yet good sounding pedals and this is no exeption.
Is it the best one I've used? No, but it's a great start for building your pedalboard.
I love the variety of tone you can achieve with it. Very versitile for anything metal.

Nice distortion pedal with many setting-possibilities
For the money that this pedal costs it is quiet fine. The workmanship is perfect (better than of some 3times more expensive pedals). It has a wide range of distortion regulation with different sound variations. Separate deep and high regulations, an addition boost knob and regulator. This really enables the user to create different distortion sounds. However the sound is fine but still not on the edge of possibilities. So for standard use it is a real recommandation for stage use and people which are ready/able to spent much more money for a distoration pedal, there is a degree of comparison. Interesting is also the use of the pedal in combination with an overdrive pedal which rises the tone variations one more time.
