As has been mentioned by other reviewers, this item is cheap, more-or-less convenient to look at size-wise, and durable. If you're casually following the score to Beethoven's last two symphonies, particularly the 8th where there are fewer editorial issues, then it'll do OK. But know that there are plenty of annoyances and errors here, especially in the 9th Symphony. The second bassoon doubling of the basses during the second orchestral pass of the finale's main theme is missing. Instruments aren't identified on every score page, measure numbers are omitted, and archaic soprano clefs (instead of treble clefs) are used for the choral and solo soprano parts. Of course the instrument names, etc., appear in German only, since this is a cheap reprint of a Public Domain 19th Century German edition.
Still, if you can't afford big bucks for something like the recent Del Mar "urtext" edition, this edition will do...
