No comparison with a stx you can tell it is a cheaper reel. Not bad for under a $100. I would spend another $20 and get a Revo S or Shimano Citica IMO.

Never used the Orra, but I would recommend the Citica in this same price range. I have a couple of them and they have been great. I might be mistaken, but I think the this is the only Abu reel made in China. All of the other models are made in Korea.

I have three of them in addition to the Revo S, Torro, and Premier. They are clearly not as good as the higher end Revo reels but they seem to work just fine and I've had no problems with them. I have not used the Citica so I cant compare them.

Look to her for inspiration and you will learn the secrets to living a good life. The most Important lesson it would seem is to make sure you spend as much time fishing as anything else.

not bad for the price. I have one, no problems. I do like my Revo S's much better.
check ebay too, find some great deals on SX's or STX's, new ones.
