I've heard nothing but good things about MWF. Just that its a bit hard and requires a bit of backbone in the brush but lathers wonderfully. Some guys lather up with it just to wash their face, since it moisturizes beautifully. Not sure if it would ever replace MdC, but a much more viable option for those not wanting to spring for a soap over the $70 range. I've heard of alot of guys buying it without the glass jar to cut down on the cost, too. Larry at whippeddog sells 'bouts' of it for cheap, too.
