I believe its a very effetive tool for developing ones tatical strength, like playing 960. The point system an be brutal sometimes, but the most important thing gets accomplished. You learned something.

In my opinion it's a great tool to learn much patterns in a short time. 

One thing I don't like that much is that the time pressure by rated tactics is really high. You often can't check everything because of the time pressure.

There is a modification that allows you to remove the timer. Under "settings" you can turn off the timer.

I'm not sure if that helped me get to 2000+ on my rating but I do think it contributed a lot.

Sometimes I don't like it because in a game I'm playing, I understand everything that's going on.  So if a mate would possibly happen, I would understand the position and see it. But with T Trainer, it's a random position where I'm trying to figure out what to do without understanding what's going on.
