I actually like them, though on my new bike (-cycle) I have Dunlop valves. On my old one I've never had any breakdown, and my impression is that they're a bit tighter because you have to screw them twice (valve + cap). Maybe that's the reason why they're so widespread since I don't think that you can reach pressures over 6 bar with a regular bycicle pump.
