Obviously there are hundreds of editions of Jane Eyre. I wanted this one because it included essays by critics. I found that the book contains one truly excellent essay, which is the essay written from a "deconstructionist" perspective. It was the first essay by a deconstructionist I've ever read, and it made more sense than I expected.

But if you want a critical edition of Jane Eyre with SEVERAL good essays in it, I recommend the Norton Critical Edition instead.
