We have decided not to use them, as they need to be close to the ground to work well, and we are using pneumatic wheels.
What kind of drivetrain are you using?
How far off the ground are you having yours?

We haven't tried it on our actual bot yet, but testing with just the sensor in different lighting conditions showed it was reliable to ~2.5" from the carpet/tape, which is around the height I expect to have ours mounted. This was with only rough tuning of the adjustment dial on the top, so it can certainly use more experimentation.
