Decent and functional but it could be improved. I used this extension for as long as I've been using chrome (over a year now) but I am switching over to Passwordmaker Pro which seems to have the same functionality from the Firefox extension which PasswordMaker is missing.

We've used it for many, many years. Fantastic. It's been installed on home and work computers and has never let us down.

This extension is in general quite useful, but if you use either the username field or the character set field, it will fail to take those settings into account. Thus, if you use either of these fields, it's easier to use the PasswordMaker website than this extension. Fortunately, the ability to manually verify shows that things are off and makes it easy to see if this doesn't work for you.
