Ella K. ★★★★★

I've been working through a big batch of fiber prints in trays and this developer keeps giving me rich, consistent blacks even after several hours of use. The powder dissolves completely without any residue, which saves me time mixing.

Carter C. ★★★★★

Mixing up the powder was straightforward, and I got rich, deep blacks on my fiber-based paper. The 3.8 litres will last through a lot of darkroom sessions.

Joshua ★★★★☆

This powder developer gives nice deep blacks with my fiber paper, and a single batch in the tray has lasted through several printing sessions. I do wish the instructions on the packet were a bit clearer about the dilution ratio, but the results have been consistent so far.
