Pros & Cons
Pros
Ftc team uses the gaffers tape for a wide range of robotics projects in robotics/ftc and in many other stage set up/assembly. I'm not a professional photographer but this tape really held our team photobooth together well for a 48 hour event.
Much better for gripping than duct tape. Best feature is that it doesn't damage my rug when i have to pull it up to rearrange the wires.
Cons
For traditional gaffer tape chores, this isn't it. Adhesion is not strong. Thin like masking tape. Doesn't stick to carpet for very long.
After a few hours, the tape starts to peel off. There's a patch that sticks to itself to such a degree that the adhesive actually pulls the black surface right off of the mesh backing.

Competitiveness
This stuff is better than some gaffer tape i have bought
This was my first spool of tape and the only brand ive tried so far but i cant imagine gaffers tape gets any better than this
I can only compare it to what duct tape would do thats the kind of residue it left behind on my xlr cables

According to the professionals that write reviews this is not pro grade but it does have a distinct feel thats dry and gently scratchy like cotton
