Good enough as good enough
They have a nice tone to them, directionality is reasonably good, they work good on anything that is loud. I do prefer them to the SM57 in tone, but not in everything else.
But they are really insensitive, require a lot of gain, so you'd be dealing with a lot of noise in the recordings.
The grill is really fragile, you're unable to disassemble them and one out of 4 of those mics - something got wrong because I lost 12dB of output.
You do get a plastic case that you can use to carry more expensive mics though.

Do not buy for use in a studio, only if for live setting.
For a cheap mic it's okay, buit you are much better off saving and buying a SM57 which is only £80.
This mic is no way good enough for studio use, however has a place for a live setting (Micing up amps etc). I bought for use in the studio, so unfortunately it was not good enough.
Recording guitars left a highly compressed sound that needed extensive EQ and reverb addition no matter where I placed it.
Recording vocals led me to again extensive use of EQ and trying to revive a dead sound.
Using live however was really good, as the lack of fidelity allowed it to fit better in the mix with other instruments.
