This lens has been around for a while. It's good value for the money, but there's better lens in the Canon line that won't break your bank either.
You want to move up to the lens with the same description except for one thing, it will say USM. Those are the motors that autofocus uses. They're quieter and they work better. There are people that cite problems with autofocus. If you're buying this lens, you are probably using it on a body that is more limited in controlling the AF.
But buy the other lens for about 30-40 more.

I've been using this with my new Rebel XS since Christmas, taking lots of pics at the dog park. The shots come out sharp, clear, and colorful. This includes plenty of action shots of dogs running and playing.
The auto-focus works fast, and is quite accurate. I doubt if the USM version of this lens is worth the extra money. In fact, I just got the Canon 55-250 IS, and I find the auto-focus to be faster and more accurate on this less-expensive 75-300 lens. Unfortunately, it does lack IS, so it may not do well using hand-held in low-light situations. But, it absolutely rocks using it hand-held in outdoor sunlight.
The build quality seems quite good, with a nice, solid look and feel. The zoom ring isn't as fluid as much more expensive lenses. But, that is to be expected.
Overall, an excellent value, especially for Rebel users. After all, do you really want to spend more for your telephoto zoom lens than you paid for your body/lens kit in the first place? If you have a high-end EOS model, then you should certainly spring for an L-series lens. But, for a Rebel, this guy does the trick, and does it well.

I am not happy with this product because one of the contacts on the lens will work for a few minutes then I keep getting ERR 99.I have tried to contact CPHORSE several times with no reply.It seems like this is common with this seller.He doesnt't want to have any returns.I now have to send the lens to Canon Tech Center to get fixed, which i am very unhappy about.

i see some reviews bashing it. I bot this when I got the Digital rebel a few years ago. It works really well, even for sports action. I know it does not have image stabilization, but I was still able to take some great shots. You will get some out of focus shots with heavy movement, but that is why I have a big memory card.
If you are not shooting sports, then it is a no brainer. Works well with the Rebel line and takes great shots. Never had a problem with it.

good quality lens at a resonable cost. great for use with a tripod. if not using a tripod you should invest the extra money and the lens with the image stabilazation.
