Doesn't spoil the view for me and I don't find the colour fringing as problematic as some folks might but it doesn't magically turn the achros' into astrographs and aren't intended too. They are for visual observing and the fringing is really only noticeable on the bright objects.

Good to know Jeff! I see people using these for astrophotography also and have some good results. It seems the Fringe killer holds the colour more true and reduces the Fringing a lot. Have you used yours for Astrophotography?:
