Highlights
Quality
Quality is there the tolerances are tight and machining appears flawless
You cant beat the quality for what youre paying here
I do have to say this reel is not the quality of say an orvis reel of which i have two of those however they are 50 less
All good but i had a similar issue as a previous reviewer with the drag knob loosening
Price
Looks great works great and the price is right
It is a nice looking machined reel with very competitive price
Handles like reels that 45 times the price
Packaging/appearance
Even sand will easily scratch the coating
Competitiveness
I calculated out 130 yards of 30lb power pro braid backing and 9 weight fly line

The things i dont like are that the drag needs to ne adjusted often because the adjustment knob is so touchy and the cork drag system didnt function properly after it got wet and frozen in the cold weather
