It comes in two variants, a mixture-of-experts model Qwen 3.6 35B A3B, and a dense Qwen 3.6 27B - slower, but more powerful. The one I recommend!
Note: I've found the 35B-A3B model to run at least 2x fast which is nice when you just need quick results for focused tasks. For larger or multi-step processes the 27B model is worth the wait. Here is the local setup guide to get it working with VSCode via Cline extension.
