These types of cable ropes are deceptively simple but give you the greatest workout. I bought it specifically to use for double-unders it fits the bill.
Pros:
Adjustable length
Lightweight - more so than most ropes
Fast - this thing whips around as fast as your wrists can move it
Note that you must tighten the end nut very tight when you adjust the length of the rope. If you don't, you may accidentally land on the rope while jumping and have the end nut fly off into the grass. Nothing ruins a workout like spending 10 minutes searching for a tiny piece of metal in the park.

Starting CrossFit, my wife originally bought this rope for herself. Not satisfied that she hadn't perfected double-unders overnight, she quickly bought a different rope (thick plastic line) and gave this one to me. I purchased another length of 1/16-inch coated wire at the local hardware superstore and replaced the original (trimmed-for-her-height) cable.
I recently started CrossFit, too, and was able to compare other ropes to this one. I figure that ropes are an individual thing, so I'll provide my opinion: I like that the thinner cable is more responsive and "faster" than the thicker style of plastic-line ropes. The other folks in CrossFit that use the thicker ropes tell me that they like the heavier feel because they can "feel where the rope is". Each to their own.
This is a simple, easy-to-adjust rope... exactly what I need.
(Funny aside: At my wife's request, I recently replaced her rope's thick plastic line with another 1/16 coated cable. She should have just stuck with this one!)

This jump rope is very simple...it is a thin plastic coated cable with plastic handles. It appears to me it will last forever. The cable makes this jumprope very fast, which is the point. The length is easily adjustable by a screw.

A great choice of fast jump rope although I keep getting hit by it all the time; this doesn't happen with my old rope. Strange!

Fast!
When I got the package, I was not expecting it to look like it does. I guess I didn't look at the pictures closely. It is different than any jump rope I have seen. Read more

No instructions for shortening the rope

Fast rope...good for the price
This is a fast rope, and pretty much gets the job done. The cable does tend to kink and tangle sometimes, making it difficult to control (maybe that's user error to some degree).

Not worth it.
I did not like this jump rope. It was too thin and too light. It was difficult to use. Tough for me to recommend.
