Not really.
I used an 16/3 50'ft (which I thought 14/3) extension cord for my 15A pressure washer and the cord got so hot that the jacket becomes soft like going to melt. It could be fire hazard if...

Southwire... is typically American made and good quality stuff. Just note that this is 16 gauge and somewhat light duty.

The mains lines supplying the outlet aren't 10 gauge, and are likely 14, possibly 16.
14 is definitely safer, especially for something like an extension cord that will be flexed and pulled around,...

that's on you (and them), not the product. educate yourself and those around you, don't just blindly blanket with the expensive option when it's not needed.

Which is clearly stated in my comment. People use what they have on hand and run into issues and not realize why. Sometimes you pick up a cord and don't know the exact length and gauge. Most people...

you're using the wrong tool for the job bro... using a 10A cord for your more than likely 15A table saw.
that's on you, not the product.
specs are there for a reason.

I'll admit that I'm one of the naive schmucks that bought a 100' cord about 20 years ago at kmart for about $8 I think. I've not given it much thought in that time whether it's big enough for what...

True! It's amazing how people think they're getting a good deal when it's a cheap, small gauge extension cord.
100ft should be 12g , no smaller. Because this would darn near melt if used for...

FYI, Southwire is a decent brand and they appear to have some other cords on sale other than this junk one. Seeing some decent prices, of course I _just_ bought one last month for way more.

Thin cord like this failed to start up my air compressor and trips on my table saw. Yes get something thicker for long runs. Heavy but worth it if you are using higher draw equipment.
