The one i purchased had a concave sole. I tried toThe one i purchased had a concave sole. I tried to straighten it using wet sandpaper on a glasplate. I scrubbed that cast iron for 4 days in the evenings and didn't get close to a straight sole. It's fairly useful, now, but far from perfect. The sides aren't square as well. The cutter cuts quite well after honing and does fine shaves while you plane the wood ROUND! Overall if you are just after getting a cheap blockplane, go ahead and buy the cheeapest lump you can get and do the afterwork yourself. Don't care about trademarks, here. OR get a real old one second hand, that has been in the hands of skilled woodworkers for generations before. Or do yourself a favour and buy top-class at thrice the price (at least)...
