Does anyone know which expression pedals are good and which ones should be avoided?

I haven't been able to find many reviews around. The Roland ev5 and the Alesis F2 are two which I have seen. I like that the roland has adjustable travel but I don't know what else to look for in an expression pedal.

I also found the Boss FV500H and FV500L. What would the difference be if one is high impedance and one is low impedance? Anyone use one - They look pretty good.
 
I am using a Rocktron Xpressions on my Dual Rec. It does really well and does not effect the Mesa sound. Mesa Boogie actually recomended it to me and I'm sort of happy with it. Although I would have preferred something like a GNX3 but I've used one before and it completely alters the Mesa. I just installed some EMG's in my S520EX and with the Mesa its pretty **** mean. If your looking for reverb, delay type effects than go with the Xpressions or something like it. If not and your looking for Definition in your sound the Mesa is fully capable you just have screw with it.
