More details to this question:
How was it? As of this moment, I'm individual inventor. Does it make sense to go this route? I believe that the fee is reasonably low, considering 12-mo. turnaround time.

It depends on your marketing or financing strategy. If you are confident that your invention is patentable and you have the money, a one year action is a good idea. However, if your invention is in a crowded field that may take a while for prosecution, it may make more sense to rely on patent pending status during the normal 2 to 3 years it is taking to prosecute most applications and using the money for answering office actions.
