## Review summary

Overall, users largely praise ffCK Overlays for effectively removing page overlays and for being easy to use—often via a quick right-click action. They report it works across many sites and is especially handy when printing. A notable minority report it doesn’t work for them at all, indicating reliability isn’t universal. A few reviewers mention site-specific quirks (like overlays on certain pages) and an iFrames limitation, and one user notes the addon can disappear from the list. Despite caveats, it’s a valuable tool when functional.
