I've been playing on Legere European Cut for the past four years. Honestly, unless someone is actually looking at my mouthpiece, they can't tell what I'm playing on. My take on this is that the mouthpiece is a significant factor in the usability of a synthetic reed. There are some mouthpieces on which they just don't work well at all, and others that mitigate the issues of plastic reeds and provide a more (to borrow Brad Behn's words) "cane-like experience."

Now, if you're frustrated with Vandoren reeds and their wide variability out of the box, I'd recommend trying another brand of cane that might give you better results. Right off the bat, I'd recommend trying the new Brio reed from Behn, which you can get here for $25 for a box of ten:
