I've been using the cable infrequently for the last 2 years at home, it has shown no sign of wear or tear. I think the price to quality ratio is totally OK and I can recommend the cable to anyone using it at home. I haven't got any cables with this length that are more expensive than this one, but for home practice this one works really fine and allows to move around freely. The only con is that it's a bit stiff and not that easy to roll up, which is still a minor issue by my opinion. Oh, and it looks really nice!
