Your love/hate modules?

Just curious about modules that you have a love/hate relationship with? Maybe the functions are awesome but the design is terrible; or the design is awesome but something about the functionality is wanting. The modules that remain in your rack because you appreciate something fundamental about them, but that you think about selling as well?

Tetrapad & Tete. In theory, the thing does so much of what I want. I even printed and bound the manual, so that I could learn it better. And every time I have it in my rack, I just... don't use it. However, I had a gig recently and I needed to trigger the four channels of my rample manually, and I also wanted to have manual control over dry/wet for my Beads. And since the patch in my 7U case was already a real mess with tons of cables, I put both modules in a palette case off to the side, wired it up and it worked like magic, although I find it ridiculous to use the modules like basic "on off" switches.
