best (IMO of course) by dollar amounts:
$80 Ambassadeur C3
$120ish Shimano Citica (though it's not as good as folks would have you believe)
$180ish Shimano Curado
$300ish Abu Garcia Revo Premier 2010 (it's that good) can find these on ebay for around $200 though.
above that...you ain't finding a dud.

talked to a shimano only repair guy and he said the citica holds up very well. he has not done any work on one of the new ones yet. said a good choice for the money. just what i was told.

Can't go wrong with a Curado...especially at that price.
I use the Revo Premiers that I got for that same price and love 'em! Comparable to the Chronarch 51 Mgs I had in both size and weight-much less expensive too.

I'm a Daiwa guy and love my Sols and Zillions, but for the price I wouldn't hesitate on buying a Curado.
