I've had very good experiences with it as well, and while I thought the matches were pretty good, I'm very curious as to how much of its success is due to the matching algorithm and how much is the process it uses. The somewhat high price barrier helps ensure people are serious, and the metered-out matching process helps prevent people from sending or being overwhelmed by mass spam. It's a more "relaxing" experience to leisurely read through a few profiles a day and send some of the quick questions out to find out if there's mutual interest (though I often skipped past the second or third steps to get straight to direct messaging).
