Pros & Cons
Pros
Strong, sturdy and practical. It is very resistant, and based on its terminations, this is a high quality product. Rod seems pretty decent for 70$.
Took my yearly pilgrimmage to alaska to fish on the kenai river. Caught a few sockeye salmon on the river, jau catfish, and a 50lb.
My braid line & swivel allows easy leader removal and reassembly. Made to wear on inserted end.
Keep testing it. Worked great in florida.
Cons
I am disappointed as i also bought the 2 piece 10 to 25 and it held up really well, surprising as this rod is rated much heavier.

I bought this rod unknowing the quality and construction
Never let your line weight exceed your max weight rating for your rod or your reel for a well built rig that will not damage itself
Price
For the price you can’t beat it
For the great price and overall quality it gets 4 stars
Due to the price point my expectations were exceedingly low
Im just never going to spend 150 for a rod
Shipping
I bought this rod to take to guyana to fish the essequibo river for 12 days
Then they sent me a new one for about 10 from china with solid customer service but it did take like 6 weeks
Packaging/appearance
It comes in a convenient bag that allows me to pack it and carry it with ease
It comes with a zippered soft case which has slots for each piece
I bought this rod so i can pack it in a suitcase when i fly

Competitiveness
I really cant find a better rod for the money and believe me ive definitely looked and bought other ones that i believed would be fine
Want to start off by saying i fish off shore and have some really expensive penn international rods so i do have something to compare to

The only down fall was the plastic ring for the last eye fell out and the eye lost its shape

The pole is kind of too stiff and no flexibility so its harder to cast far with it
