Good for a minimal vocabulary
If you are a very beginner planning to go on a trip to Italy, this will give you a minimal vocabulary so you could use it here and there, more for fun than actually to accomplish things. For example, if you want to book a room or order in a restaurant. That's about it.
I am curious about the longer course as I like Paul Noble style. It is a bit slow and has a lot of repetitions but I guess this is how it sticks. His voice and accent reminds me a lot of Andy from Headspace. So it is very relaxing, you can almost meditate on it :)

Reasonable, but room for improvement
Positives: this takes you at a gentle pace (possibly too gentle at times!), and with lots and lots of repetition you really do learn what you're being taught.
Negatives: some things you are taught I don't think are particularly helpful for a beginner crash course. For example "I would like to know why you haven't ordered a taxi" is good in terms of sentence structure, but as a phrase is useless to beginners, because let's face it, you won't understand the answer! Instead some time could be spent on learning other phrases which would be of more help to someone looking for the basics for travel, such as "can I have the bill?" and "where are the toilets?". I think there's also space for a bit more vocabulary, especially food and drink, as ordering in a cafe or restaurant is something you're pretty much certain to do when travelling. For example, rather than just "I would like a coffee" it would be helpful to be able to say whether you would like milk, or sugar. And finally, actively practicing numbers would also be helpful, rather than just a track at the end.
I've also used Paul Noble to study some Spanish (the longer version). As I mentioned earlier you do drill the phrases, they do sink in. However, a weakness in the Paul Noble series is that while you get quite good at saying what you want to say, there is no practice for listening. A few tracks where you listen and translate to English, rather than just translating from English in to the study language would be beneficial in my opinion.

Best learning experience ever
I'm usually good with languages but this method of learning, by simple repetition of likely phrases in different sentences, is phenomenally useful and quick. I started playing it as I got on the plane and by the time I landed, had most of the vocabulary I needed for my four-day stay. A perfect method for learning essential phrases.

Useful!
I really liked it. It helps you with the most difficult part of a language - actually generating the sentence in a dialogue.
I think it works even better if you are already somewhat familiar with the language at an early stage. It definitely is what the title says...essential Italian that will help you have a very basic conversation with the locals if you travel there. I am excited to listen to the rest of the series.

This book has made the process of learning a 2nd language easy and effective. No trying to memorise new words, the vocabulary builds naturally and almost subconsiously.
