It is more comfortable than structural turn-out gear, but you wouldn't want to wear it while crawling through a burning building. The shortcomings are lack of water barriers and no reinforcements at wear points. The extrication suits attempt to address this, but they don't appear to me to be able to withstand the wear-and-tear of regular turn-outs.
