Not a Southwire Product!
More bait and switch on a technicality; this cord is actually made by Coleman Cable in China which has been acquired or purchased by Southwire. So although technically owned by Southwire, this is NOT a Southwire product as described... Now with that out of the way, I am pleased with the quality and performance of the product. It is of good construction and is heavy duty. Having 25 feet plus the length of the machines cord I am able to go anywhere in the garage and driveway with my machines.
