Expands a lot, tough, good value
First off, I always buy my products for full price and never accept discounted products for reviews. My rating criteria is as follows. If the product works as is advertised and the quality is in line with the price then I give it five stars tentatively, then deduct stars for usability. I paid $8.00 for 25 feet in October 2016.This is a very good cable sleeve. I used it to cover several strands of speaker cable. Using it is pretty easy, it does expand a lot so I was able to get six strands of 14 gauge speaker wire through by threading a string through, then tying it to the speaker wire then pulling it back through. A previous review described it as a "Chinese handcuff" type action, which is a perfect way to describe how it acts as it expands over whatever it is you are cabling.It seems to be quite durable, and in fact is quite hard to cut, which is a positive. My dad was quite impressed and took what I didn't need to use it for cables and wires in some old tractors he is restoring.I used a lighter to seal the places where I cut the sleeve with scissors to keep it from unraveling; that is the trickiest part about working with this product.

Great cable bundling solution
I purchased the Techflex sheathing to cover a custom set of S-Video and audio cables for my Nintendo 64. My cables are, essentially, a thick gauge S-Video cable and two analog audio cables. Although they're nice cables on their own, they looked a little messy and ghetto, without anything to bundle them together. This Techflex sheathing made them look fantastic and keeps all three wires nice and tight, together.I'd highly recommend this to anyone trying to add a professional look to their cabling. The sheathing is very sturdy and has a bit of stretch to it which helps slide it over your cables. As long as you order the correct size sheathing, you should be good to go and very happy!

Not for Use with Power Cables, USB/HDMI and A/V, etc, Should Work Fine
This is a good product BUT, be aware that (like others have said) it's tricky getting the end of plug through. So you'll need to get a large diameter version of this if you're going to use it for power cables. USB, A/V, HDMI should work fine. Quality is fine, and it was delivered quickly and as expected.I'm leaving 4 stars because I think the seller could do a better job letting customers know why size they'll actually need in the description.

Good Product
I bought this product to cleanup/dress up some wiring I was adding to my 1977 Mercedes 300D. The factory headlights on these old cars are simply abysmal compared to modern lighting. So I installed some higher wattage bulbs, ceramic connectors, and heavy gauge wiring with relays to switch the lights on and off. As this required a lot of new wires under the hood, I wanted to clean up the installation so it looked more OEM like. This stuff did the job. It looks great.

Great product
Techflex is the only PET cable sleeve that I will use. It easily expands more than twice it's size to accommodate cable ends (2 XLR mic cables in my case), is easy to work with, and will tighten down nicely over the cable when complete. I tried another brand and it did not expand even to twice it's size.

Just ok
It didnt work too well for me. Tried to use this for my HT and tv system wires. It is only good if you have 3-4 wires to hide. If more it is rather not recommended. It gets very difficlut to push the wires through if you have more then 4. I managed to work it through with some creative methods but it doesnt look great. It took a long time to do it too. Also since this is made out of plastic stretchable mesh of sort the ends of it shred and split if cut even if you seal it with heat. It works better if you group the wires and run a couple of channels. It doesnt come with directions for best ways to work it and but the time you figure it out you need to buy more to get it right.

Awesome Product! I love the finish under the hood
I love the fit and finish that you get with this style of wire loom. I am tired of that cheap corrugated plastic loom due to it's warping, and the wires showing out of the slit cut up the side of it. This stuff is awesome! Completely 100% wrapped around material with no wires to fall out and a very professional looking result.

Where neatness counts
I had trouble figuring out exactly which diameter sleeve to buy, so I settled with 1/2 inch. I figured this would be large enough to fit an extension cord and three CAT6 cables. The sleeve expands to more than twice its flat width, but that still was barely large enough to accommodate the male 3 prong plug of the extension cord all by itself... I trimmed and rounded the plastic on the cord, and then it slid through. I added the CAT6 cables (cut longer than they needed to be) so I could trim/crimp them after they were in the sleeve. Once you get a hang of burning the newly-cut ends and the Chinese handcuff type motion to feed cables through, you end up with one, extremely clean, and rugged cord. I'll post pictures of the finished job.
