I've used it - can't comment about the hippo pad though.
I'd say it's the best issued webbing there is. It is pretty pricey though.
The web-tex stuff is okay. I've got an issue bergen and use the web-tex side pouches with it. The fastex are a tight fit but the zippers are bang-on so it works.
One thing to watch out for are the various shades of colour you can get. My web-tex stuff looks bright and brand-spankin' new while my issue stuff is old and dull. Quite the contrast.
I ended up selling my PLCE to move on to the OD modular version, made by SORD Australia.
