I like some 6x60 and some are well and truly awful (MUWAT was lousy I thought). I have no problem smoking a 6x60 and I wouldn't consider them "Jawbreakers" or "Behemoths", since they aren't uncomfortable for me to smoke at all, but I don't seek them out either.

I think it has more to do with the blend, if you take a robusto cigar and shove some more filler into it to make it a 6X60 it's going to be pretty hit or miss, it seems pretty obvious that some blends would be suited to that size and some wouldn't. I'd like to believe that manufacturers have more integrity than to inflate an existing blend to a 6x60 size and put it on the shelves just because they know it will sell. It probably isn't reality, but I like to think nice things sometimes.
