New ball cup arms, opinions?

I've been running my RMax V1 with the original cheapskates and tricklaser arms for a couple years now, and the new molded carriages and ball arms look pretty tempting. The other option I'm considering is magnet arms, but that would be a little more expensive, and the plug and play nature of the seeme parts would mean less downtime and fiddling. Anybody want to weigh in on how the new arms are working out for them?

So far mine are working great! Especially once I remembered to increase the arm length in firmware!
In all seriousness they work well and won't fly apart like the magnetic ones can.

Mine are working great as well. I've put hundreds of hours on them with no problems. Pairing them with my new aluminum e3d v6 mount have really improved my prints.
