Well it does it's job well. And it's free.

"Perfect and flexible"
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
Very open licensing available (check out website for details, spelled out very clearly), it's more or less a standalone .exe, with the option to install on a usb thumb drive, which is very handy for multiple users and helping out others, the thumbprint on a usb is a measly 6.34 mb also doesn't require a UT3 launcher or anything of that sort.
Being able to right click on a fat chunk of lost memory and have it launch into the actual folder, containing folder, open/copy to notepad, zoom in on a particularly cluttered cluster of files, etc. are all very convenient and accessible.
I reclaimed 30 gigs of space in a matter of a few minutes.

"does what is says, easy to use"
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
Very easy to use. The graphic display of disk usage is simple and straight forward.

"Whew.. got my 4 gigs back."
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
Long story short, I mysteriously lost 4 gigs over the span of one day. Turns out that a certain game setup that I downloaded copied itself in four different places.. 3 of which I've never checked until now.. with this software.
This program will remind you of all the useless crap that rots in the bowels of your hard drive.
Cons
None!

"A must for any PC tool kit"
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
The software is very simple to use, the 'no-frills' layout makes it easy for even the most basic user to clean up their PC. I had 2 old PC that had crashed via a virus and after reloading MS there was a lot of 'hidden' fragments and un-restored info that cloged up half the disk - this program allowed me to easily see that useless infor and delete it giving a new lease of life to what would have been a scrap PC - one word - FANTASTIC
Cons
the software cannot manually be deleted, BUT the size of the software is miniscule so should not cause concern.
I would prob advise for an annual disk clean up to run the Spacemonger then the MS defrag - i got a 40% increase in one PC efficiency

"Perfect. 1 self-contained EXE and a big zoomable map of your hard drive space"
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
Shows a giant map of your hard drive folders in squares that represent how big they are. You can then zoom into each one to get another map. Perfect for working out where all the space has gone!
This is a single self-contained.EXE file that does not need installed.
Works on Vista, even though it appears to have been written for Win2K and not updated since. The only reason I've not given this 5 stars is due to my comment below.
Cons
When deleting a file on Vista it crashes... But its quick to restart and reload.

"Cool program, simple but powerful."
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
Great way to identify the areas of the hard-drive to attack if you need to free up space. Colours can be configured, whether free space is shown, and it even has a UK English language option. (nice.)

"Be aware, unable to uninstall"
Version: SpaceMonger 2.1.1
Pros
It works quite well, no frills.
Cons
Unable to uninstall. To basic.
