Never great, but could be worse.
The little shoe is more adjustable and totally removable on the old model, but not on the new one. The necessary work angle has been updated out of existence. I was lucky to find a replacement for the 25 year old one I had, which died. Still these were always terrible, uncomfortable to grip and clumsy. Tool designers could have improved them, but instead, they made them worse.
