I needed 2 more tooth.

- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
For a long time I wanted to change the chainring on my bike, it came with a 32 chainring and I found it too small for my taste. I have a 36 on my other bike so I decided to go with the 34t. I know my way around the bike so the only special tool needed is the LTR-4 in order to take out the lockring, be aware that you also need a vise or 36mm wrench and a torque tool. I don't mind getting new tools for specific jobs, but we are not all the same. It took ne about between 30-45 minutes for the complete install. The bike looks great and feels great, those extra 2 tooth really makes a difference.

special tool required, heavy

You need a special tool to install this on the crank arm, either Park Tool LRT-4 - Shimano Direct Mount Lockring Tool or Shimano TL-FC41 DM Chainring Installation Tool. Neither of which is common enough for any local bike shop to stock. This should be called out in the description. The manuals for this ring cover bottom bracket installation and crank-to-bike installation, but say nothing about installing the chainring on the crank arm. This is actually the 3rd "special" tool needed to install new BB-MT800 bottom bracket, FC-M7120 SLX crankset, and this chainring. First you need a special bottom bracket tool which used to be included with the BB-MT800 bb but either isn't anymore or I got a bb with missing pieces. Then you need the tool I mentioned above. And finally you need another small plastic tool to install/remove the cap on the non-drive side. Shimano should be ashamed of themselves, there are plenty of other crankset manufacturers that only require one special tool, rather than 3. This is likely the last shimano crankset I'll ever install. It's also heavy. It's weird that it is a 2-piece chainring where virtually every other manufacturer just uses a single piece. The chainring itself feels really heavy compared to every other one (from other brands) I've ever installed. The weight feels like it's the center piece rather than the ring.
