To me, they are the BEST value in the size classes referenced above in terms of price to performance to reliability to longevity.
My kids grew up fishing these reels, learning how to use spinning reels - so they've been put through their share of abuse by inexperienced fishing people - but have always held up well.
I bought the 30 XT reel to replace the 25 XT reel that ended up in the bottom of a lake when left unattended on a boat with the line out! That reel with 4 pound test caught a 46" musky (by my wife) - exactly one day before being lost to the lake.
I can't speak highly enough about these reels. In my opinion, one has to spend A LOT more money to achieve better performance and service.
So if you are seeking an ultra light, light, light medium or medium duty reel - I honestly don't think you can find anything better for the money and I don't think you can find anything even 25% better for three times the price of these.
FYI - for medium heavy and heavy duty spinning reels, I use the Shimano Stradic Series (4000 & 5000 Series). They are a LOT more money, of course are built for much heavier applications, are silky smooth - but to be honest, I don't know if they are really that much better. I would rate those a 5 Star on quality and performance, but only a 3.5 to 4 star on value.
I fish freshwater, inland lakes, typically for bass. Where I fish, bass are typically more moderate in size (2-3 pound range) and in my opinion, there is little more enjoyment in fishing than catching a bass on a 4 pound (line weight) ultra light or 6 pound light rod and reel set-up.
That said, I found this reel to be ergonomically strange for my uses. I just couldn't get comfortable with the angle of the handle and the dimension of the cork bulb on the end. It felt strange to use, and for the price, I decided I couldn't live with it.
Overall this is great reel. Just be aware of the XT handle being somewhat strange when compared to just about all the other reels available on the market.
