I bought one of these last week when I saw this post. The kit came in yesterday. Very nice, all contained in a nice plastic locking case. Looks to be good quality, 24 sensorwipes and cleaning solution, but I'm staying with my E2 Eclipse solution when I need it. Looked through the directions and then took a look at the sensor on my D300. I keep the auto cleaning function on when turning on the camera as well as turning it off. I knew the sensor should be fairly clean as I haven't noticed any crud showing up on my images. Lo and behold, there was a small dust bunny on the upper corner of the sensor. It didn't appear to be stuck, so I used the SensorVac to suck it right off. Used the scope again and it was gone. I never used a blower because I didn't think I wanted to blow something off and have it settle somewhere else in the mirror box.
Overall, at this point, I think it's money well spent. I wished I had had it when I was on Maui last year and got crud on the sensor everytime I went out on a boat's whale watch. I constantly changed lenses on board and there wasn't any way to get around it.
