I'm using the TS version with my 6 inch F4 and am quite happy with it. It has some vignetting but easy to correct with flats. Correction of stars is really good (have used with with APSC size and smaller).
I haven't had any problems with reflections at all (only with cheap filters).
Can you find a better CC? Sure. Can you find worse ones, most definitely.

Thanks I found one comment where they had a reflection near bright stars with an F4 scope just wondering if anyone had come across this with their setup especially F5 (skywatcher 200pds).

Hallo Dave,
I have the "TS Maxfield 0,95x" in use with a SkyWatcher 130PDS and I have Reflections at some brighter stars.
I can see these Reflections on Pictures from D. Jung, too.
But I have not yet found a Comecorrector without this Issue.
With "GPU Comcorrector" you can find Threads with Reflection Issues, too.

I think the culprit is this star outside the FOV |

Hi, I have the Sharpstar 0.95x (i.e the Maxfield)
It works very good for the most part
But, one time, (and this is strange, because it was only one time), I got that rainbow in the corner of my frame
it happened with my M63 image; it was nowhere near the galaxy, so I could just clone stamp it out of Starless, which was easy
but 90/95 percent of the time, it works completely fine; just remember to take flats, it helps a lot
and close any light leaks

SORRY
forgot to add a very important detail
I'm using a 533 sensor!
Can't believe I forgot to add that.
Probably most coma correctors work fine with that sort of sensor size.
