I guess garbage is harsh.

It's being peddled as an acrylic modified thinset when it just have the stick or flexible properties. I'll never use it, as i have to stand behind my work for at least ten years.
It's not worth the risk. It's a Home Depot DIY'ers short cut as far as I'm concerned.

I tile contractor friend of mine had an entire floor fail that was set over radiant heat.
He redid the job with Mapei.

I used to use Mapei for every job. The stuff is probably overkill for most jobs.
The only thinset that I have seen that is rated ( in writing ) to set over metal, glass or cut-back asphalt adhesive.
