Pros
Durability averages 4.3 out of 5 across three reviews, from runners logging 45 to 60 miles a week.
Two reviewers name it their favorite among the Clifton, Ravenna and DS Trainer.
Cons
One reviewer finds it firmer, heavier and bulkier than the Clifton 4, and would not use it for a workout or a race.
Averaging 9.8 oz across the men's and women's builds, it is heavier than the 8.9 oz median for daily trainers on sale.
Cushioning and appearance are the lowest of its dimensions at 3.7 out of 5.
