Bought it for a trip, used it for the first time
I originally bought this for a trip to ensure that I didn't get stranded. Its nice that it fit under my seat, but I never used it during my trip because luckily I did not get a flat.
I recently got a flat and got a chance to use it.
1. Instructions could be a little clearer, after reading it a couple of times I understood what needed to be done.
2. My recent flat resulted in two separate punctures in the tire. The first puncture could not be fully sealed with the plug but was sealed enough that it held air long enough to get to the shop. The second puncture did not show signs of further leaking once plugged. I'd estimate that I would need to top up the air about every 3-4 hours given the rate that air escaped the first puncture after using the plug.
Some recommendations:
I carry allen sockets on my bike in a tool pouch and did not take the included allen wrench. This was a big mistake as my allen sockets do not reach far enough into the tool. If you decide to use your own allen wrench (instead of the one supplied) ensure that it will be able to fully screw into the tool before use.
After inserting the plug, inflate the tire and pull on the plug (the instructions say 2 inches.) On my bike the plug sits about 1/2 inch out of the tire once properly seated.
Some things that was not clear about the style of plugs it came with until after I bought it is that there is a maximum speed that is recommended that is below some of the posted highway speed limits in BC.
Also, I didn't realize how important it was to get your tire properly patched (if possible) as soon as you can.
I've only had to patch a tire one other time, and it was with the other type of patch (the glue strips.) I found that these plugs are so much easier than the glue strips to use and plug a tire, but I found that with these strips only 1 of the 2 plugs were able to stop the air leak (so that soap and water would not show bubbles).

Great set, not so great for gravel and off-roading
3 stars might be a bit harsh for this set as it really can be a life saver to get out of trouble. However, a few words of caution from my experience if going off roading / fire road riding. Regardless, get a puncture kit. It may save your life.
My experience with this set was coming from a 4 day motorcycle camping trip with a fairly loaded bike (2 paniers and a drybag, 50-60lbs)
I bought this set solely for the peace of mind it gave me in preparations for a long trip in the Nova Scotian back roads this summer. 2 weeks ago, on my last day of a 4 day trip, I punctured my rear tire (Metzeler tourance, 30% tread life left ish) in some gnarly gravel about 20km into the woods. After following the instructions to the T (1st time puncture repair experience for me, extra rasping for tires with a steel belt, got it ...), I'm off after about 1h of messing around and making sure everything is good.
2km later, I'm flat again. The hole that I had just plugged was empty. Where'd the plug go ? (see picture...) I patch it again, re-inflate, 15 min later I'm off.... not even 4km later, another one ?! Same deal. I get a bit anxious being this far off any type of roads, middle of nowhere with no cell signal, plugs not holding under mid day sun. First time I was getting concerned with water and food ... Pushed my bike 3 km to get to the intersection where the gravel became a bit smoother, hoping my weight off the bike helped the situation a bit ...
I ended up patching my tire 4 times until I got to a paved road. At this point I didn't really trust the plug to hold anymore than it would. I hop on the highway and crawl my way back home, 250km trip. The plug did hold this time, riding about 100-110, a bit above the recommended speed (50mph/80kmh). Stressful return nonetheless.
I love the kit for what it is. It allowed me to get back home without needing a very lengthy / expensive tow. It is simple to use, instructions crystal clear and plastic coated (for those rainy days!). The pump is powerful enough to get up to 40 psi (gauge reads about 10 psi high I found) no problem, faster with the bike running. There's even a light to help you work in the dark. Fairly cheap insurance if you ride any distances to be honest. Gets you back on the road within minutes (if you're acquainted with the instructions !).
Biggest gripe was the plugs not holding while I crawled my way back from the gravel road. It was a major annoyance, had me loose hours and most importantly, confidence in the repair.
That being said, I am by no means a "tire plugger expert" but wanted to share my experience. The set is well put together and worth every penny, but I would highly consider adding the more traditional "worms" to the kit in case it doesn't hold like me.
PS : BRING A SET OF PLIERS or multi tool or you'll hate yourself. Not very obvious but it is required to properly plug the tire. I had a GERBER multi-tool and did a fantastic job.
Ride on!

Compact peace of mind
This repair kit has lots of good features.
It runs off the same connection point as your battery tender, no need for alligator clips. It has lots of cable so you can reach a long way. It fits snugly under the seat too, but i had to thin out a few sundry items (ball inflator needle and such) Keep your mushroom plugs oily, if they dry up they become brittle and don't hold air.

Essential gear
Purchased as prep for a ride to James Bay and back. Worked exactly as advertised but be sure to have pliers to pull plug and grip tool body, and an extension for the allen key as inserting the plug requires significant force. Compressor inflated tire quickly in spite of small size ! Fit easily under seat of R1100RT

Kept me rollin’
Bought this in advance of my solo trip from Toronto to Deals Gap and had many occasions to pull out the tire inflator for myself and others , although as of now (somewhere on the way home to Canada in Pennsylvania) I haven’t gotten a flat tire yet. Kit seems easy to use and comes highly recommended by friends. Small packaging that fits well in my side cases.

Feel safer riding with it but it’s bulky
It’s what I was looking for and it works on my bike battery A bit bulkier than I thought it would be. Pliers required but not included. Will have to get pliers

Good Package
A good and important flat repair kit to have. As others have commented, good quality puncture tools/system and the pump is noisy. But the pump does it's job as advertised. Neatly packaged into a small zip bag that easily fits under a seat. Happy that I have it and with the addition of the Cruz Tools kit, I'm covered for long journeys.
