It’s a very durable reel, casts very well, and is smooth. I have a Shimano that costs lot more but BG is my go to reel .
I remember my dad bought me a first Daiwa reel back in the 80s, and the reel lasted for almost 40 years. I replaced it with BG Daiwa and hopefully it will last for many years to come

C'est un super moulinet, je pêche depuis la côte et je l'ai utilisé pendant des heures avec des leurres de 60 et 80 grammes. Il répond à toutes mes attentes. J'ai même installé 500m de fil de 45 centièmes sur la bobine.
