Dylan.747 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Does anyone have any experience with this reel? I am just really antsy about it because the first one I received from Tackle Warehouse was grinding very bad and I had to ship it back for an exchange. The original reel arrives at Tackle Warehouse on Monday. They will then process it, and within a day or two, ship me a new one. Has anyone ever had issues with a reel from Tackle Warehouse, and maybe a revo sx in particular? If so, how was the exchange rate? Someone please help rid myself of worries! Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 ABU stands behind their products and all the manufacturers get a lemon here or there. The Revos are well built quality reels, you'll be fine. Quote
Super User WRB Posted February 22, 2013 Super User Posted February 22, 2013 Sears & Roebuck, now Sears initiated the satisfaction garrantee with free produced replaced, the reason ; Sears doesn't make any of their products, you the customer are the quality control. Abu stopped making their own reels for general public use and has the reels made in China to their specs and you the customer are the quality control. Trust the Chinese to follow the rules and use proper metals and not cut corners. Your replacement reel may or may not work well and can return it again if needed. Tom PS; Chinese counterfeit parts is costing the US billions of $$$ each year. Quote
GoneFishi'n Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I have one and I love it. I use it on my duckett micro majic rod and the combo is as light as a feather. I was nervous buying it because there were not that many reviews, but my expectations were met. I'm not trying to steer you away from the Sx but I recently bought a Lews Speed Spool and it is amazing for the price. The only thing is it is a little hard to dial in but once you do it's awesome. I can cast weightless worms with it. Quote
Rangerjoe Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Revos are made in Korea, not China, along with Lews, BPS and even the new Daiwa Lexa Quote
Dramer77 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 i returned my revo 3 and picked up a lews bb1, love the bb1 ! feels much nicer than the SX to me and def casts farther and smoother.. Quote
jerkbait joe Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Absolutely love mine although I really haven't caught anything substantial with it yet. Quote
