I have four Carrot sticks... I love em. I had the same problem with one. I called and spoke to the people in Canada. They explained the problem and sent me a new one the next day. It was a quality control problem. Was very sorry for the inconvience and took great care of me. I was satisified. I had it for the weekend. Great people. I love the rod and have used all fo them alot.... good stick....
I am now thinking of getting the spinning rod to try it out also...

Element 21 is the name of the company that makes these rods. They also build golf clubs although the clubs have not caught on well. The shafts are a different story however, Vijay Singh actually switched to the E21 shafts for a while, I do not know if he is still using them or not although I know several touring pros are using their shafts.
I do not have a carrot stick or their shafts but they are making a splash in both markets. Their stock is not really making much of a splash but they are a public company. ETGF is the ticker and no I do not own any shares, just sharing info.

The carrot crankin stick is awesome...no problems I just got the Carrot Stix Crankin rod a couple of weeks ago and love it. It is the 5th Carrot Stix I've added to my boat. No problems at all with any of them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is not a rod made by ANY manufacturer that won't break. As has been said, it all comes down to the customer service and how it is handled. FYI - I have no affiliation with any Rod company. I know what I like, buy and use. I also use, and like, Falcon and Shimano rods.

I have broke 3 Loomis rods this year, 2 of them were user error on a stump and a 50 lb catfish, thank goodness for Cabelas, they just give you a new one no questions asked.

What did they use a batch of rotten carrots to build the blanks?
Maybe a little over ripe?
It all comes down to quality control. Engineers!!

Is Kistler making Carrot sticks now??? Can't be from Kistler because people are getting their rods replaced and are real happy with the customer service.  BTW - I don't own one, but they sure feel good. I checked them out at Cabela's and when I went back a week later, the 4 or 5 they had were gone. The last thing I'll add is you should judge a company by how the handle their problems. Every company will have problems and it's how they handle these problems that separate the great from the good from the terrible (you know, the company that requires you to know the secret hand shake and call the owner to beg for the same level of service all his competitors provide as standard). I had two LTA Helium rods break, left two messages with Kistler and never a response. Good customer service? Granted, I bought them from an individual, Lake Fork Guide Jason Hoffman. They were new and in good condition. Both tips broke, one on a hookset. The most brittle rods I've ever seen in my life. So, perhaps they were not covered or they didn't want to help me out, but a simple call to tell me so would have went a long way. Can't really see myself buying another in the future. Maybe I'll by a few Carrot Sticks!
