Used a Cabot oil based redwood stain on an outdoor arbor made with old
reused pine 2 X 6 boards. Good stuff. Planned to put a coat of oil
poly on that but never got around to it. Nothing on the wood except
the stain. Repelled water like oil. Just beaded up and rolled off.

Is it any good, or just hype.

No good, but better than nothing at all. A semi-transparent Cabot
Decking stain will protect wood for a long time, for me about 3-5
years.
