I’ve never heard of them, but that goes for half the stuff nowadays. I guess it’s pretty easy to get a Chinese company to pop out reels with whatever name you’d like on them.
Personally, I’d stick to Diawa, Shimano, Lews, or Abu. But, maybe I’m the one missing out. Who knows.

I know of a company that is selling reels for 200+ that he pays $30 for from China. They just put his name on them.
