IMHO they are one of the best value reels on the market.
I have a Tekota and a Torium and have proven tough, reliable reels.
You can spend a lot more on bling, but these are workhorses.;)

For the price they are one of the nicest reels to use on the market IMO. I run mine with 50lb line. Its one of the few reels big enough to handle heavy line aswell as having a level wind, which makes fishing a pleasure.

I run mine with a 24kg Live fibre rod and makes for an excellent all round rig.
