What were their thoughts on the knock-off?

Butch

Only briefly looked over. 
 

That Board is full of West Coast guys that loved their Newells. 
 

Some good things. Some bad things. Each reel seemed to be missing a few washers under handle. Some were able to get shipped pretty cheap full of 80 lb braid. Seemed to be light on lubrication and not all screws were tight.  Side plates and clamp are plastic. 
 

Customer service did respond back to their questions. 
 

General thought was for $100 or so with braid, it was worth it to pull apart, adjust a few things and fish it. Doubtful they will last like a Newell.
