My only experience is with w3m. It's not bad, the keybindings take some learning, but that would be the case for any terminal web browser. It even has an extension that permits you to display images (if you have an X session running - which I usually don't, so I haven't tried it).
My primary usage is for programming sessions - I have a text-only Arch install (parallel to my normal Ubuntu) that I use for programming. Usually, when I need a browser in that environment it is to look up software questions, and for that, w3m is perfectly sufficient.
I would not use it as a regular browser though. It's fine for HN, StackExchange, Wikipedia and other text-heavy websites, but unfortunately way too much of the Web is built on graphics and JS for a browser like w3m to be a feasible day-to-day alternative to Firefox et al.
