You won't regret it. One particular feature I like is the uv mapping 
ability which works very well, and better than what I know from Wings3D.

One can argue about the price of course, but compared to the high-end 
mastodons it is cheap and it does a really decent job if not more.

My only concern is its evolution in the future. The makers have been 
extremely passive over the last two years, although they claim to 
continue development. However, Silo is already a full-grown product 
nevertheless imho.
