I remember reading a review of this thing (possibly in SOS?).. apparently it just doesn't really work very well :/

yep, but it's to expensive... ok, if it works and you don't have to build a vocal booth, why not...

Actually I seem to remember the review being worse than it actually is. From the review:

summary

Ironically, the Reflexion Filter makes the biggest difference in the worst rooms. And it can make a big difference, but any product like this can only achieve a certain amount; in my view, additional absorptive material (even if it's only a duvet or heavy blanket) behind the singer should still be considered mandatory. If you combine the two approaches, you should be able to record adequately dry vocals in almost any environment.
