I don't know what I'd do without the arm and vest. My arm would be dead and puffy without this product! With that said, however, it's not perfect since my back tends to kind of hurt or become sore with long, straight usage (about a few hours or so). The Merlin itself is actually helped by this arm and vest as it makes a smoother motion than just the Steadicam by itself (in fact allows you to make a better "dolly" type effect) but it doesn't really decrease the Merlin's wobbly horizontal balance issues unfortunately. But other than that and some less-inspired instructions, it's really a "lifesaver", at least to my arm. And I also tend to get a pretty good exercise regiment out of it, particularly when running. lol. Highly recommended!
