I've got a cheap after market grip. Mostly great.
Agree with the pro's and con's already listed.
Other points
- the unit I use takes a different battery to the camera. 550D
Means a second charger, less versatility. Not a giant issue but worth checking and avoiding if possible.
- The grip came with a IR remote control. Fantastic help but if I forget to turn it off the batteries can be flat when I go to use the grip.
