Default Brakes bleeding, Eezibleed

I've just spent a few frustrating hours bleeding the brakes on my Bug. It's done now but for future jobs I wonder if anyone has tried the Eezibleed and is it any good? If not is there a system that does work?

For a full system change I normally open all nipples, let the fluid out. Then refill reservoir with all nipples still open and leave for an hour to let gravity do its work. just keep an eye on the level not to let run dry. then it means you don't have much bleeding to do

eeeezibleed dont supply the correct 3 tag cap for the Impreza,
With a bit of help you can make their universal cap "work" but it isnt great.

The Sealey Vacuum VS020 seemed to work ok when I used it last week.
