"Seems perfect"
Version: MKVtools 2.4.4
Pros
Incredible simple one click conversion. Never had any problems using this for very fast conversion from a wide range of formats to iPad. Converts fast and works in batches.
Cons
It leaves a bit of a mess of files behind after creating the finished mp4 - logs, aac and h264 files. It would be nice if it cleaned these up, but no big deal, easy enough to delete them.
Summary
Really simple, works great.

"Works good for some things but buggy on others"
Version: MKVtools 2.3
Pros
The default setting converted a 4GB MKV video to a 2GB AVI with the surround sound and subtitles.
Cons
I cannot customize the video settings for resolution. Using custom settings can cause strange things to happen such as no video, only sound in QuickTime and the same file played in VLC had only video and no sound.
Summary
The default setting works well for converting MKV to AVI. I need to experiment more for MKV to MP4.

"Program is great"
Version: MKVtools 1.0.2
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
This program is great for converting mkv's to dvd. The only problem I had with it was that it didn't seem to add 5.1 audio tracks to the dvd and instead converted the sound to stereo(2 channel). Hopefully it will allow either passthrough and/or reconverting to 5.1 in this version. Aside from this the app is great. -
