Yes got one, pretty simple use, dirt free flat ground, just drive the car over it, get out look at the gauge, adjust tracking. drive over again.

My car handles fine, and no sign of tyre wear.

I've also got one and it is superb.
Remember though that when you drive over it the reading should be zero if the tracking is correct. If it reads say 2 degrees poss then it's two degrees out.
I made that mistake after not reading the instructions.. dooh ;)
