I shoot an Agulla and can confirm that it is a very nice bow. It balances nicely and the grip is very comfortable; several people have commented on the fact that it feels very light compared to some others. I would agree with LMP though; the paint finish is very good, but chips fairly easily (I had to hunt round Halfords for a touch-up kit which matched my purple one).

The only other riser that is as good in the price range is the Winstar - to me it doesn't feel so nice, but the new ones are anodised rather than painted, which is an advantage. But I seem to remember seeing a post a couple of weeks ago which claimed that the latest batch have some sort of issue with the limb pockets being laterally slack? Maybe someone else can throw some light on that...

The Agulla is a very nice bow - you can shoot your way to first class with it, no problem.
