After the first 100km I do prefer the Power Gravel over the Cross Boss this tyre replaces. Rolling resistance on tarmac seems lower (according to my Strava records). Off road they hold themselves really well - although I haven't used them in proper mud yet. I'm now running them tubeless at 2.3bar aft 2.2bar front which give a harder ride than the 33mm Cross Boss at 2.5bar. I am planning to reduce the pressure a bit further - gradually over the next few rides to find a slightly more comfy ride and increase grip offroad.
Product Details
Get off the beaten track with great traction, thanks to the Michelin Power Gravel Clincher Tyre. Ready to roll either with tubes, or as part of your tubeless setup, this hard-wearing tyre is lightweight too, thanks to the folding bead. French tyre experts, Michelin, have created a gravel version of their popular Power tyre. This is great news for off-road enthusiasts, who can now benefit from a number of key features that make these a fantastic option for gravel trail and off-road riding. The Bead 2 Bead Protek system covers the tyre casing to provide a comprehensive layer of puncture protection, but it doesn't stop there. The X-Miles compound is abrasion resistant, which not only helps protect from cuts and tears but also delivers incredible durability. What's more, these tyres can be used in a tubeless setup, when used in combination with a compatible clincher rim with tubeless sealant.

Needed a change from my previous gravel tyres, mostly due to change and fit issues( difficult to get on and off) read some reviews and decided to go with the Michelin power gravel, they came packaged up in two small boxes due to being foldable, left them hanging for 48 hrs to warm up and destress, they were easy to fit by hand and one lever, and easy to get off again, cannot validate any of the claims for better puncture protection but give me a nice smooth ride compared to my 32mm, good traction on the hard pack gravel etc, not tried them in the wet or mud, can recommend.
