Price
This reel is amazing for the money!
At this price point you really can't beat it.
99 with a 30% discount bringing it down to $51.
At time of this review, the 70-size reel was priced at $72.
Packaging/appearance
All these features are wrapped up in a beautiful black anodized aluminum shell with gold trim.
Inside the box are some kastking stickers and a parts list.
The reel is looks great in black with a gold label for the reel name.
Competitiveness
I got this rover 60 for catfishing right next to an older rover 70.
The rover has been a tried-and-true reel for years and probably the best value for any good baitcasting reel out there.
I have a few higher end catfish reels and this one is a competitor for a fraction of the price!
The rover has a line out clicker that is comparable to my abu garcia reels.
