Review summary

Users appreciate the add-on for its ability to translate individual words with examples and for maintaining original website layouts in translations. It's praised for being simple and fast. However, multiple reviewers criticize the bulky translation interface and the fact that translations open in new tabs instead of being smoothly integrated into the current page. Concerns about broad permission requests and limited functionality in translating entire pages were also noted.

Pros

Allows translation of specific words and viewing them used in sentences.
Maintains website layout when opening translated pages in a new tab.
Simple and fast to use.

Cons

Uses a large, clunky translation window instead of a lightweight pop-up.
Translations open in a new tab rather than embedding onto the original page with native formatting.
Requires broad permissions that may not be necessary for page translation.
Lacks functionality to translate entire pages easily, especially with 'select all' in context menus.
