That said, over the years I've found a handful that are actually really good pedals:
Caline Englishman - this is a dead-on copy of the Carl Martin Plexitone, which is my favorite Marshall in a box pedal. I have them both and they're identical.
Mosky 250X - this is a distortion pedal with a switch that goes from a DOD250 preamp to a MXR Distortion +. Both are very accurate.
Sonicake Cloud Chorus V2 - analog chorus, very close to the CE-2 sound.
Kokko Overdrive - exact copy of the TubeScreamer mini. I have both of them here too.
Kliq Tinytune - very accurate tuner pedal, large bright display that is easy to see under any light conditions. I've compared it with my pitchblack, TU-2 and TC tuners and the accuracy is the same (it's actually slightly more accurate than the Boss).
Donner Yellow Fall - analog sounding digital delay. Sounds great and works with hot effects loops, it worked well even with the Soldano Avenger loop, which was the most challenging loop I had recently.
Outside of Amazon but definitely worth buying:
JRR Pedals OD1.3 Distortion Pedal Great Fulltone OCD copy with a twist: the Low/High peal control is on a footswitch so you can easily toggle between both voicings. I like this better than the original OCD for that reason alone.
All these pedals are under $50 and I have no issues recommending them.
Any other cheap pedals worth checking out?
