Smooth, properly sized for line and backing. Easy to switch retrieve hand. Fit and finish is at or better than other reels at this price point. Cassette is held to reel by an o-ring and some tabs on the cassette that fit in the reel. The o-ring is quite tight when new, a little lubrication is needed to make it legitimately interchangeable. The cassette and reel is held onto the main reel by a cap that screws onto the central axle...I can see myself dropping this cap as I change lines in a boat or a float tube...if I drop it I will not be very happy. I'd like to see Snowbee offer some spares of this cap so I don't ruin a whole trip.
