Or are you using braid and not running it through the holes in the middle when you tie it on?
Educate me here. If you have a full spool you shouldn't have to run it through the holes, should you? Or does braid not wrap tight enough on the spool to create a "pinch"? I've always run it thru the holes cuz it's easier but I didn't know that was the right way. If you don't use a mono backing you should always run the braid through the spool holes. Braid will slip regardless of the amount of braid.

Like others have said, "take it back, they will replace it , IF it's in stock."
I'm not trying to be rude but what do you really expect from a reel you pay $29 for? It's not going to last for years like Abu's and Shimanos. I have replaced all of my ABU's and Diawa's with them. I have paid $150 for Diawa's and they not lasted 1 year. (I have a Diawa Viento for sale really cheap!) I have ABU's that did not survive lake Falcon but my Mettles are still alive! One of the best values on the market.
