I'm thinking about buying one too....
I've been looking for an inexpensive .38 spcl night-stand gun. Although I've never fired one, I have inspected them close-up and being the owner of many small revolvers, I really don't think you can go wrong. The one I want comes with rubber combat boot grips, black finish and has a flush bobbed hammer and I believe it's called the "undercover." It is only about 15 oz and very compact in case I need to throw it in my pocket for short excursions. I don't think it will be the kind of revolver that you would want to pump 10,000 rounds through but that would not be it's purpose for me. Fit and finish, while probably not up to Smith or Ruger standards, is acceptable and it's a pretty good bet you'll get that reassuring "bang" each time you squeeze the trigger. Why not? Go for it.
