An awesome jacket for those less than ideal days!
Likes
As someone who prefers to hike in shorts, the extended length of this jacket is perfect, allowing me forego carrying rain pants and still keep my bottoms (mostly) dry. The hip-belt flap feature also provides great protection and prevents uncomfortable bunching of the jacket. Lastly, the material feels great against the skin, unlike most of the other ultralight jackets on the market.
Dislikes
A little heavier than some jackets on the market, although probably worth the few extra ounces when considering its features. I also don't like that the zipper is exposed when the jacket is not zipped fully. I've actually added a small piece of velcro to address this issue.

Nice and long

This rain jacket seems like it will work out very well, although I have not tried it out in the field yet. Really like the length to cover my back and front-side -- extends 14" below my waist. I plan to use this jacket with the MLD rain chaps. My size large comes in right at 11oz. Normally I'm (5'9", 170#) a medium but exchanged for a large because I wanted additional coverage over a puffy or additional layering. I like the venting on this jacket and the fabric appears substantial. Innovative design by Sierra Designs in not just copying everyone else and making the lightest rain jacket possible.
Dislikes
Only thing so far is the weight penalty (see above) but I can live with that.
