Very good, waiting to get excellent
Like many electronic devices these days, helix also runs on a software platform. Because it is very new, there's a whole lot of bugs and improvements to wait. Good thing is that line6 is working all the time and has already released a couple of updates.
If you want to get crazy with kahillion effects the helix will run out of dsp power quite fast - but for "reasonable" basic setups it delivers muchos buenos!
The unit as a whole is very versatile - works well for so many more things than only processing guitar sounds. If you're after everything helix could be used for, I can't see any competitors. For making only guitar-sounds I'd go for something else. I think the guitarcabinets on helix are a bit dark to my taste but that is fixed via IR-support. Just load in ownhammers for a bliss!
The UI is quite fantastic. Best I've seen so far. Very fast to learn and use.
Would I recommend Helix? Deffinately yes.

Far beyond my dreams.
The Helix contains a variety of possibilities. I'm sure that every guitar player find his own sound and effects. Yet it is a quest to have everything adjusted correctly. My band members tell my that I never sound better than now with my Helix!!

Great piece of gear.
I'm not going in to the analog vs digital debate here, but I sold almost all my amps and pedals after having this thing!
Really easy to program and well built.
But, yah, you'll still have to learn it and spend time programing it...
