Yes, other scientists have duplicated his results. No one wants to put their
head on a block and say it's all good though.

I also remember reading about this before.
Have they managed to prove this yet? ie built something that works.
There wont be much to say after that

I remember this thing. So, they still haven't managed to disprove it yet.
It's hardly the first time we've used tech without understanding how it works.

What is the EmDrive and why should I
care?<http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/what-emdrive-why-should-i-care-1579181>

IBTimes UK explains the controversial space propulsion invention setting the
global scientific community alight.
tl;dr:
The idea is that electricity is converted into microwaves, and the microwave
photons are fired into a truncated cone-shaped closed metal cavity. When fired
into the cavity, the microwave photons push against the large end of the cone,
causing the small end to accelerate in the opposite direction.
Many academics in the international scientific community don't believe it is
remotely possible for the EmDrive to work. They say that according to the law
of conservation of momentum, in order for a thruster to gain momentum in one
direction, a propellant must be expelled in the opposite one, and since the
EmDrive is a closed system with no propellant, it violates our understanding of
physics.
