as anyone here should know,a reel that has a plastic body is a blowup just waiting for a place to happen.
daiwa had some that were not bad and lasted a long time but in general,plastic is throw away.

quite honestly,if I were looking for a low budget spinner right now,I would try an aqua.
my idea is,it has a 2 yaer warranty,the seller of thisreel will refund your money if you don't like it and since it has stainless stuff inside,it is worth a decent try especially since choppers are on the way!
besides all that,they cast well,have smooth powerful gearing and are pretty too,you an try one and not regret it.
just stay within the return policy and you are golden.
