We used them back in 2008, and whenever we have to go repair that bot, it's always the Festo that's at the root of the problem, no matter how often we replace it. Although we generally don't use pneumatics (this is the first time since '08 we've used them, actually), our experience with Festos (however limited) has made us deeply distrustful of them.
