These are really solid budget-friendly gels. Maurten are still my favorite, but these are much more affordable and easier to stock up on, and they pack a good punch. They definitely need to be taken with water, and can burn a little bit going down, but not bad. Totally worth it for the price.
If price was not a factor, I'd give these 4/5. But price is a factor, so five stars.
