This has proven a difficult product to review, because in one sense it's simply an example of what can be done with a small stationery pad of squared paper. In that sense, it succeeds well in showing what you might draw by hand onto such items, in this case, once you've printed off enough blank sheets.
However, it's also presented as providing sample geomorphs (the title on the actual product, not the product page, is "Pad of Geomorphic Intent: Sample Geomorphs"). While the drawings are nicely done for the most part, in a basic style, they're only loosely geomorphic, because the number of ways in which you might combine the drawing-tiles is heavily limited thanks to variable numbers of exit points per drawing, in different places, and of sometimes varying size. As the sample product image shows, one includes a 90° river in a corner, which would have to be used on a map edge, yet it has corridor exits on the same map edges as the river, and these can't be linked directly to anything else from this product in a strictly geomorphic tile fashion.
So it works well as a pad of squared paper (which alone would have had little interest for me; as a long-standing GM, squared paper pads I have in profusion already!), but not as a set of geomorphic floor plans, so I've marked it down accordingly.
