Tried 4 dwarf tomatoes this year and this was by far my favorite. Nice flavor/aroma with a bit of tang on numerous smallish fruits on sturdy plants that are about 4' tall when trained up a length of dangling twine. Not sure whether the notably sturdy plants were due to a change in how I grew the seedlings (I held them in pretty cold but well lit conditions for several weeks prior to planting out) or due to them being dwarf cultivars but the robustness of these really stands out next to more typical varieties that I didn't need to hold in the cold.
