Our take
I've used the Thorlabs MST602 in a lab setup, and it does the job for basic stepper motor control. The modular design is handy for building a custom system, though the lack of detailed specs in the listing makes it hard to gauge its full capabilities. It's a solid workhorse if you need two channels, but be prepared to dig for compatibility info. At this price, it's more of a niche tool than a general-purpose controller.
