I have used the site, and I recommend it IF you know exactly what you're
looking for, especially in Census records of 1891 and 1901. Those two
resources helped me greatly, and pointed me in the direction of further
searches for birth, marriage, and death certificates, in my husband's
family.

However, if you do not have particular people in mind when you are
searching, and have not "done your homework" and have all necessary
notes at hand, you could end up wasting a lot of money.

I would encourage you to use it if you have all the information you will
need.
