Taste wise, it's delicious! Quality wise, it's a great product coming from ON. The only issue I see it's the price.

Yup, tastes great, mixes well, it's just too damn expensive. Almost twice as much as their 100% whey most places. No thanks.

ON Pro Complex is the only powder I've consistently used in the last five years. Vanilla is my flavor of choice. The price doesn't bother me, since a 4.4lb jug lasts me a month.

Yea, I get about a month out of a jug. Chocolate for me. Was using ON Whey Gold Standard for 6 months prior to that.

Here's a couple of links to their sites. http://www.optimumnutrition.com/index.html

I love Pro-Complex. I have been using it for over a year now. It tastes great, and has Aminogen in it, so less gas and more protein absorption. But do to the price I now use ON's 100% Whey Gold Standard lately. Though they are nearly identical, Pro-Complex has more vitamins in it. As far as protein goes I always use Optimum nutrition because it comes with all the BCAA's and Glutamine already and is what I consider to be a great Value

I agree with all these dudes. Taste is good, great protein blend, but expensive. I use it as my whey protein and always will.

if it tastes anything like the ON 100% stuff then it will be! i can't get enough of the stuff, i'm hooked, sadly the majority of guys over here have just discovered unflavoured whey, you know, the crap they dump over here from new zeland and europe and sell for silly prices, "ohh but its cheaper and you can mix it with nesquick, whey is whey, blah blah" forget that! ON is the don of protein powders! and i highly recommend it - enough said
