I am lazy guy, when it comes to reloading. Does anyone has experience with using this kind of units?

Can be faster. However can also damage your mags or the loader if you try to overfill them.

The one I saw (@ UA) seemed really slow to me for all the noise it made. IMO they're gimmicky, you'd be better off getting a Tokyo Marui stanag style loader. TM makes the BEST loaders and the stanag is nice for all the bbs it holds.

They work fine as long as you don't use under sized BB's. I had 2 BB's get stuck inside one spot in the main gear and broke a tooth. One of these days will get my buddy to make an aluminum gear for me.

The other issue is that one of the smaller gears tend to pop off requiring you to open it up and set the gear back in place. The plastic inside is weak but if you can fine a small metal tube to cut and act as a bushing, once epoxied into place will eliminate the problem.

The trick is to not hold your mag on too hard and the loader will kick you off when full. Now the question is, does your gun shoot when the mags are at filled to capacity?

I converted one of those to run off an NiMH mini and fit it to a box mag lol
As long as you don't jam the mags into them and hold them lightly in place, they should last a while, but they are slow
