Works well
I'd prefer it if you describe it on your website as a "left hand lever" rather than front lever. As you know, in the UK we use left lever for rear.
Good, comfortable, single-finger lever but the small bite point adjustment screw seems to do very little and feels at risk of falling out altogether when unscrewed.

Delivered quicker than expected - thanks Bikester! (And no import duty on this when ordered from UK.)
This was bought as replacement so is exactly expected. If you're not used to high end Shimano, especially Saint, bleeding is needed quite often, and because of that, they can be a pain.
A quick tip for anyone reading: One thing to note, if you're getting oil squirting out of the gold plug at the end, that's due to an internal rubber seal/sheath (a safety thing). If it's annoying you, you can undo the gold end with a grub screw that's located under the clamp, and clean that inner seal/sheath thing. This is done often when you're doing an in depth bleed, which seems to help with the known alternating bite point at hot temperatures issues. Hope that helps someone!
