I have the one with the adjustable spoiler on my 1200s. I bought it second hand on here as well.
Quality is ok, though slightly more flimsy than the original screen. It does make a difference, but I can't decide if I prefer it or not. I quite like the pressure coming off the original screen which give a bit of support and takes the pressure off your wrists.
Sometimes though I set it to its highest position and can tuck down into the bubble with the MRA screen.

Bought an MRA Vario today.
I had the OEM tall screen on my 1100. I am 5'8" and I have fitted the RD Barbacks (which I think are wonderful!) but the buffeting I was getting was unreal. Anything over 60 was just so unpleasant as to make dual carriageways a real no-no. Couldn't live with that, so read up on what other people had done (which was no real help as everyone said different things!)
Of what I had seen, the MRA Vario-Touring screen looked a good bet. First impressions were it is quite small and a lot thinner that the OEM one. The size wasn't an issue as one of the comments I had read suggested one solution was a lower screen. Fitting took a few minutes then out to try.
Bottom line is no buffeting though it does seem noisier for some reason and, up to hello officer speeds, it was a great improvement.
Time will tell if it the best solution but from today I am well pleased.
