I did it once. It worked great. I've developed a reaction to wheat though, so I haven't done it since.

Roux is something that is no better homemade than out the jar from the store.

I'm not a fan of it but I've learned to do it well enough in the microwave that I can get by in a pinch.

It's not my method of choice by any means though.

I have done it. I do it in a pyrex 2qt measuring cup. I whisk it often when it starts browning.

I prefer the range top method with my bendy spatula and beer.

I do the microwave thing when I didn't make enough.

Yep. I love it. I can take it to any color I want to in a short time with minimal stirring.

I make too much gumbo at one time for it to be useful to me regardless of the quality.

Never tried it. Making a roux gives me a break from whatever is going on in the house, and I can stand at the stove and mindlessly stir and drink a beer and not have to worry with anything else going on

I just buy Kary's roux in a jar. it's flour and oil. not sure why anyone would go through the trouble of making one unless they like to throw back a few more beers.
