I have tried it twice over the years, and I wasn’t satisfied with the performance. It didn’t seem to behave like the book said it should. I felt it was slow in slowing down and wouldn’t meet our stabilized approach gates (which aren’t more restrictive than what the airplane should do) I intervened both times.

That said two attempts in so many years makes my opinion merely anecdotal. It may work like a champ, I just don’t have enough opportunities to practice with it.
