18-270mm Tamron lens for Canon Rebel?

I've been shopping around for a good lens that won't break the bank, but give me a good focal range. I have seen a few ads for a Tamron 18-270mm where they talk about the sharpness and super wide focal range. How is this lens in your opinion?

I bought this as my first lens to go with my new Canon body. I've bough two lens since then and this lens is still my favorite. The focal range is what sells it. I can do landscape all the way to wildlife. I give it a 10. You can do a reasonable close up at 270mm. :judge:
