Pros & Cons
Pros
Long-lasting and reliable on the shelf. Mix with mildly hot distilled water, and let sit for 24 hrs.
Love this stuff for tri x development at box speed or pushed to 1600 iso. Generally with 120 or 4x5, t-max or rolling retro 400 film. Easy to use and no problems for beginners.
Cons
Kodak recalled a batch of d76 recently. The bad batch number is 105 8270. I wish i were confident that this is actually d-76.

Wait 24 hours for professional quality, 30 minutes for amateurs.
I tend to use this as a fall back developer when caffenol doesn't work well with the film i'm using.
Price
This was exactly what i was looking for and the price was very comparable to the last time i purchased it.
I buy 2 or 3 at a time, because the price is so much better than i can get in town and in powder form it will last a long time.
Competitiveness
And my first camera was a 110mm toy camera, since i use a analog until 2000 i began with a olympus.
My favorite combinations are d76 with acros 100 and tri-x.
I personally prefer kodak xtol for it's eco-friendliness, but i would recommend this for beginners.

There are other developers that do one thing or another better more speed more sharpness finer grain but for each of those you give up something else
