My YO has 3.
2 jumping ones and one dressage one. She swears by them. I have not sat on one myself, but YO says they are really comfy and make you feel secure.

I had a dressage it was amazingly comfortable. Sadly didnt fit my horse despite it being fitted to him. He needs a closer contact panel this rocked on his back x

There is a lot to like about them, certainly friends have been pleased with theirs for the most part.
But with any saddle it's all about the fitter and the after service.
I'd say the name on the brand isn't always the easiest to deal with, but if you can find an alternative fitter then you should be okay.
I'd opt for a decent second hand one rather than going made to measure / bespoke. At least then you don't get the large depreciation if you find out it doesn't suit.
