My Reviews
Torrents Fast Search
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
It does what it says, but it would be better if it compiled the results from all websites into a single page. Loading each page individually to find the best-seeded version is rather awkward. When searching for a particularly tricky torrent (really underground file), I had to go through all first four pages before finding a proper result, when this could have been displayed to me in the first page like other engines did. Sure, it does the trick, but there are better options.
(By the way, for those who couldn't install it, try using the other download button, the one at the bottom of the page, right next to "Release Notes")
Torrent Meta Search
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Has a wider coverage than most torrent search engines I've tried (out of three, only this one found any results for my query - which is relevant if you're looking for reeeeally underground stuff like I do), and does not fill your screen with a crapload of ads. A few problems with it, though. First that the links on the left should take you to the main website, not to the feed (which happens in only a few cases), and the "strict search" option is confusing. It also has a number of minor issues (torrents should be ordered by seed amount, not by S/L, and it could have a custom icon instead of the default Firefox puzzle piece), but it's pretty neat for a search engine.
EDIT:
This review was written about a year ago, and since then the author seems to have addressed every single concern I had at the time. Plus, it now contains a number of new features that do nothing but make it even better, while still keeping the interface clean and easy to use (simple is better). I'm changing my original review to 5-stars, for this is now, in my opinion, the best torrent search engine available out there, and I really don't know how to live without it anymore
