Build quality is solid from the wire itself to the strain relief at the male/female plug ends, and the plugs themselves. No complaints there. For $20 I don't think I could have found a better quality extension cord. I'm indifferent about the lighted head but I can see its use in certain scenarios, for my use I don't see it having a ton of utility. In my opinion, the only other extension cord I have that is better than this one is a purpose-built 10g 100' one that my electrician friend made me that has 4 female outlets (2 standard, 2 gfci). I only paid for the plug ends and he used leftover 10g from a job he worked.
The only possible complaint at the moment I could think of is that these are fairly heavy duty cords and if you're an elderly or smaller person, it may be a bit heavy/unwieldly for you to wrangle. Also I know folks who don't like the lighted plug ends but that's more of a personal preference. Lastly, you'll want to keep an eye on this cord if you take it on the road with you. It outclasses many of the other big box store cords and someone will (definitely) attempt to snatch it from you. This isn't one I would hang on my truck rack and leave unattended in a parking lot.
Delivered on time.
