I have the new Williams and after some months of use it appears to be working fine. The first one had to go back to JustTrains due to a defective cord.
The cord, which is thick and stuff and has a TERRIBLE connector, is the Achilles heel of this transformer. It's simply awful. But if you can get past that factor the transformer delivers a lot of bang for the buck - I got mine for $99.00. The brake feature is nice when you are running conventional and the transformer works fine with TMCC too.
I've got a 1053 (it has a whistle button) I got at a train show for $10. I saw these from other dealers for $10-$20. Works quite well.
