 Plastic Reeds

Just out of curiousity I purchased a plastic reed today. It was called a Fiber Cell reed. I'm quite amazed at how well it plays. Right out of the box it was playing. Not wetting, warming up etc. (for the reed anyway). Also, it gave me better range than the Vandorens I'd been using. I was even playing well into the Altissimo area (this on a bass that I'd been lucky to hit high C on before). It was pretty expenive though: $10.00 US. Also it was a tad harsh although I have a cloth ligature on order so maybe that'll tone it down a bit. Anyone else have any comments?
