5.0 out of 5 stars Best Bang for your buck
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2020
I've been using this reel for a couple months now and I haven't had any issues with it. The build quality is definitely there. I got this reel on sale for $75 so if you guys can be patient and just hold out for a sale, that would be my advice as alot of abu garcias go on sale here all the time. I picked up a revo beast 40 before this guy and I'm just pleased with what you get for your money. There are a few people that have had issues with the side covers of these reels popping open. It does take a bit of force to pop the side cover off so I wouldn't worry unless your hand positioning is right on the lever that releases the side cover. Will update this review if I come across anything abnormal or if I experience any failures.
