          This product was as described. It is 6-gauge solid copper wire. 50 feet. It behaved as all bare, solid copper wire has for me, so it was in fact 6-gauge solid copper wire. I was (and am) happy with this purchase. The price was acceptable. The delivery time-line was acceptable. When I picked it up at the store, the clerk was knowledgeable and friendly. Everything was fine. I ran this wire between the newly-installed subpanel and the original main panel. (The feeder cable was only 3-conductor, which was according to code back in the day.) Everything went swimmingly with the installation. I am a happy camper.

          Worked great. Straightened easily. Not too stiff. Used it to make an antenna.

          Great product at a great price
          The wire was just as expected and with it being available by the foot, it is convenient to purchase when needed. I use this for craft projects rather than electrical applications and am very happy with its quality and value.

          This is the best copper wire I have ever bought. It is so shiny and smooth, and it feels great in my hands. I can't wait to use it for my lightning mitigation setup, which I'm sure will work perfectly. I mean, who doesn't want to attract lightning to their house and then ground it safely? It sounds like a fun hobby to me. Plus, I get to enjoy the beautiful sight of this copper wire running along my roof and walls. It adds a nice touch of elegance and sophistication to my home. I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves copper, lightning, or both.
