I think I got a faulty one....
The coils were off in one day ... most of the time i cant play because the sound comes and goes so theres something wrong with the connection. However theres no visible problem with the solder joints so idk whats happening. Bummer because the materials arent that bad.

worked perfectly, for 2 months, then broke
So I got this cable because I needed it (makes sense right)
So I plugged it in and it was great, I really liked the look of it, and it just felt great.
But then after like 2 months of using, the springs at the ends came loose and started sliding all around the cable, the little turning things at the end shielding the cable thing (idk, i don’t know cables like yall) came loose and also started sliding all around the cable. I put it back on for safety, but because there were no more springs, the cable broke at the ends due to the sharp steel.
Don’t buy if you’re not ready for it to break, it will break, I don’t care what all the people are saying under here, mine broke.

Very economic, but...
It's cheap, it's black, it's long enough aaaand.....
It constantly has connection issues. All 3-5 cables i bought had connection issues from the get-go, and while it's true that i paid a fraction of the price than i otherwise would have, it's still a fact that a cable that needs constant meddling and tending to simply transmit the sound is not good either for shows, recording, or even just reading
Maybe at this price point it's a good buy for someone who doesn't have a demanding programm, like a starter, a young learner, but for an experianced user it's troublesome

Arrived with a Bad Connection
The cable I received had a bad connection right out of the box. It causes intermittent signal loss, making it unreliable even for basic use.
While it's an affordable option, this kind of issue makes it hard to recommend. I would suggest checking functionality immediately upon arrival or investing a bit more in a more dependable cable.

Worked for 2 weeks, then it broke
I am not sure how long all these other people were using the cable before they gave 5 stars to it, but mine broke after 2 weeks.
The input jacks have some weird circular wire next to them which is supposed to work for flexibility of the cable I guess or something. Anyway that thing broke after maybe 10-15 uses of pluging in/pluging out the cable and now does not work any more.
So I would strongly suggest against buying this cable, I am not sure why this is the top sold cable on Thomann because it is literally the worst cable I ever used in terms of longevity.

Did his job for a couple of month, than broke
The price is low but i expected to work for more than a couple of month. For some reason it was rusted on many places.

You get what you pay for
Hey it's only cheap if it works, it works!
It worked great untill it didn't. Lasted a total of 2 months before it gave up
Spend a little extra, get something that will last.

Good radio antenna for little price
I use this cable for exercising and home recording for almost 2 years now, may be 5-6 days in a week for 1-2 hours per day.
It's still alive and looks robust and durable enough to work for years if you are not very demanding player like me.
But... big But... Though the cable is made well, by design it's lacking any shielding and all that stuff preventing noise. My particular one picks radio waves up and along with the guitar signal I'm listening local radio stations (and loud enough to annoy me a lot). Millenium DI-E di-box helps with this problem, but anyway the cable is noisy enough. So I can't record any good sounding demo, it demands a lot of dirty signal cleaning work.
Summary: yeah, for the price the cable is not bad, you can use it with benefits for your learning process, but don't expect stable good quality to play live or record any good-sounding demo.
If you have enough money to buy more expensive cable - buy more expansive cable.
