In Minnesota, hurricane has the lowest latency and most routes out of our state. I can reach most destinations with lower latency than any other carrier I've tested.

Their NOC is great and easy to reach. Billing is perfect and predictable with no hidden fees or surcharges in the fine print. And their pricing is some of the best out there. 

They peer with anyone who wants to peer and they're on more IX's than any other provider.

You would do well to add them to your mix and remove one of the other ones. I'd probably remove spectrum and replace with HE. We've only had 30 minutes of downtime total in 5 years so they've been very reliable for us.

They're a good bulk/budget option in a blend.  A decent number of
content hosts are keen to source traffic into them.  I would be loathe
to be single-homed to them, but even then they're not the worst option
in that department.

If you've already got Telia, Spectrum, and Cogent, 6939 is probably a
great addition to your blend.

They'll probably want a 5yr contract out of you to get their best (and
headline per-Mbps) rate.  Evaluate carefully what position that puts you
in based on the continually dropping cost of wholesale transit and bulk
interconnect opportunities.  You may prefer a shorter contract term at
slightly higher rates.

As others said, if you don't need full routes from them, they have a
VERY open peering policy, and that 100G port might be better suited to a
local IX where you can pick them up along with a bunch of other content
networks.
