I'm in the market for a new reel. I usually prefer shimano but the revo stx caught my eye. Any thoughts or reviews on these two reels?

I saw the STX's on sale at academy the other day for 150. I have one and I like how lite and small it is. The knobs feel really nice. Lots of configurations for the dual brakes. Its just such a nice reel for me that I've babied it so I haven't really "used" it that much. I don't have the 200i so I don't have a comparison for them.

I have two Curado 200i's and a Revo STX and actually I prefer the Revo. The Curado seems to be tempermental. The Revo isnt as smooth or doesnt cast as far, but its user friendly.
I might be in the market to sell my Curado 200i's because of that.

I have $160 in gift cards for cabelas and have been looking at these two. Both on sale and around the same price.
