Anyone use Easy Grind MIG wire?

I just bought an 11 LB spool of .025 Easy Grind MIG wire, I have heard of it for years but do not know anyone who has used it. If it really is easier to finish it will be great but 2 things concern me.

First, It is more than double the price of the wire I normally buy.

Secondly, it does not have an AWS certification listed on it.

I don't think using it on the floorboards will be an issue but I am going to go ahead and do my heavier frame brackets with my old wire since they are structural.

Does anyone have experience or anything they would like to share concerning the Easy Grind?

I used it for many years. Then it disappeared in this area..
I used it as a general use wire. Even did chassis and axle housing work with it. I liked its qualities. Great on sheet metal and spot welds. But the weld area has to be very clean. It won't tolerate rust or dirt. Not good as a rod on farm equipment etc.
