Default Auto tuners

Anyone have any experience or comments about using autotuners such as the
Alinco EDX-2 automatic wire antenna tuner or SGC antenna tuners ?

I used my EDX-2 with my Alinco DX77T for a couple of years.
Despite the old wives tales, and misunderstandings, I went a head and fed
Balanced line with the tuner. I used it on a short dipole, and also used it
on a horizontal loop. I had the tuner in the shack close to my common
ground point. I was satisfied with its operation. It is "satisfied" with a
2:1 swr. Some times to go lower I hit the button again, and it would retune
and do a better job.
