Over all I'm happy with it, but already bought something else for next year.
Maxel changed the way the back up anti reverse dogs work last fall and the reels are now silent. Many dealers sold off the older noisy versions at a discounted price. They are also changing the handles on the 5 & 6 sizes to a ball handle.
