Quantum reels are good,but when you need to sevice them it will take awhile.They are zebco products and it seems nobody has parts.I sent mine to teds and he sent it off from there.5 weeks and $38.00.I like the old school abu garcia 5500 c3,3 day turn around on service and very affordable.I bought my quantum 18 years ago and it was $90.00 back then,but I guess it was a good deal,I still have it and use it regularly,but it needs drag washers.
