Used them once on a trip booked with Kiwi.com so that I had connecting flights via Bergamo. It was fine. Bergamo is a (very) nice airport so it was fine for a two hour layover. The planes were clean, we landed on time and the price was right.
I understand the issues people have with them, but generally their weird restrictions are well publicised so that its only your own fault if you bring a bag that is too big.
However as there are only B737 and A320 models for the 3x3 layout of single aisle jets, the air industry regulators together with the manufacturers should simply set a standard size of cabin bag for the overhead locker and similarly for the under the seat space. That way no airline can gouge you for being 1cm too big for their self-determined cabin luggage size. I would pay £5 for a guarantee of an overhead locker space.
