First is the Boss BD-2. I found it to be harsh, unpleasant and had a nasty note decay.
The Jam Pedals Delay Llama Supreme was by far the worst delay I've encountered. It sounded like it was based on a faulty PT2399 chip, it was that bad.
Lastly, the Crowther Hotcake through a Fender Twin. Shrill, glassy and has a most unpleasant note decay. Put it through a Vox AC30 or Orange AD30TC and you'd never know it was the same pedal. It sounds amazing through those amps!
I said maybe.....
Echorec...Horrid little tone sucker with an annoying crackly noise issue that’s present in a lot of units.
Timeline - Jack of all trades, master of none.
Bigsky - Bloom and Cloud sound incredible. everything else not so much and therefore not worth the money to me.
El Capistan - Like an arsehole, everyone’s got one. Never bonded with it. infact apart from the Deco, I’m not a fan of the Strymon sound.
I’ve never understood why people like them.
They usually sound broken, even when not broken, although so poorly made that they are often broken.

Football is rubbish.
Tubescreamer into a clean or just breaking up amp. Just awful. But great for tightening for metal.
Big Muff style pedals in general. I like the idea of them but in practice I hate that scooped yet nasal kind of tone. Thin but still muddy. Rats do fuzz better for my taste - thick but defined.
I agree with the Dynacomp comments above - utterly useless.
I refuse to work on them. They’re just too much of a mess to be bothered wasting time on.

Maybe it’s just me.
Nil Satis Nisi Optimum
But especially BOSS cos they're ugly
(I still own an RE-20)
Boss CE-2 - don't like it's wobbliness, and Boss BF-2 which just sounds... well, like a BF-2 I suppose!
