I have tried several value reels and have been disappointed with quality and performance.

Price


For a budget friendly reel kastking megatron really delivers.


As frequently as i lose them over the side i can't afford $200 reels and these are holding up well.


Nice price point for this size reel.


I'm staying with kastking no need to go out looking for anything else it's worth the price

Shipping


While i was initially upset my reel was shipped wide open inside of an amazon box with the reel box sorta just thrown in there.

Packaging/appearance


Received reel in great condition, well packaged!

Competitiveness


I use another brand (penn) and i was worried about the quality of the reel.


The jury is still out on long-term durability, but i see nothing to indicate they won't last several years.
