Great performance
I have been experimenting with cheaper wires and Forney has been one of my favorites. When the spool was through I put on a spool of PGN and started getting a lot of burn backs, sputtering. Surprised me because PGN has great ratings too. The Forney wire ran smooth and consistently throughout.

No protective shipping container
Plastic spool damaged so bad that the wire comes off the side of the spool. Not shipped in a box to protect just put in a bag and totally beat up during shipping. The product itself is fine.

Product is not the issue - condition is
We have the subscription and today needed to use the first spool, we could not due to damage to the plastic spool. The wire will not feed if the spool is damaged. Coincidentally the second shipment arrived this afternoon in worse condition. Both are to be replaced unfortunately that leaves us purchasing locally which is more costly and very inconvenient.
