Here's what other sites are saying:

From REI:
"This low-profile, lightweight 'biner is perfect for the aid climber looking for a strong, inexpensive high-tech oval. Simple design is actually stronger than gated biners in cross-loading or edge-loading situations--steel wire bends and stretches instead of breaking. Slender wire gate occupies less working space, leaving more room for fingers and rope. Cold-forged aluminum alloy for exceptional strength-to-weight ratio."

From RockCreek:
"Classic designs evolve and that s why the tried and true Oval is also offered in a wiregate version. The OvalWire, by Black Diamon, is lighter and thinner while still offering the same no shift benefit of the Oval. On those A4 hookfests, the OvalWire sits still, offers better protection and is lighter. Climbers will find this biner ideal for modern-aid testpieces, big-wall free climbs, racking pro and as an all-around biner."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"Classic designs evolve and that’s why Black Diamond created a wiregate version of their tried and true Oval. The OvalWire is lighter and thinner while providing the same no-biner-shift benefit on those A4 hookfests."

From EMS:
"The lightweight Black Diamond OvalWire carabiner has a large gate opening and a large capacity for nuts and pins. Its symmetrical oval shape makes it optimal for racking and prevents the dreaded shift when aid climbing. Multi-purpose use, from big wall to trad to Alpine climbing. Constructed of durable aluminum alloy. Non-locking biner. Weighs 2.2 ounce."
