Good value, well made
Like the spare spools. Can change line type easily.Very fiddly to lock spool in place.

Replacing Spool
Have not tried this yet, but the Spool took steady controlled force to lift out. Please note the internal marks on Spool, because replacing is an exact matter.

How to Change from L to R winding.
It came with no instructions as how to change from left to right hand wind which was poor as it says on the box "Converts from LH to RH retrieve." However, I worked it out. Take off the winding drum. On the back of the drum is a star wheel for the click mechanism held on by 4 small cross headed screws. You will need a small precision screwdriver to undo them. Do this over a tray, as the small black screws could easily be lost if dropped. Lift off the star wheel with its 4 projections. Inside is a hexagonal white plastic part in a shiny shell with roller bearings incorporated. Gently lever this out with a small screwdriver, turn it over and replace the other way up. Put back the star wheel and tighten its 4 screws well. Replace the drum and spool. Job done.

Not the worst but nowhere near the best
Well it's nothing fancy, I got it as a spare just for emergency use. It's not the best designed reel I've ever used, but then it's nowhere near the most expensive either.My only criticisms are that the spools are ridiculous tight in fit, the grease on the inside edge causes a vacuum which snapped my nail off at the quick trying to push it out (that really hurts lol). Once I gave it a wipe to take the worst off it wasn't too bad. Another thing is the weight of it. I've got #10 Salmon reels that are lighter no kidding! The lack of instructions was a bit odd too, I know how to take off a cassette or change a wind direction on most reels fortunately, however novice anglers may be unsure of this. Leeda do need to take that into consideration at this price point as it is aimed at the beginners market.In use its durable enough, it holds line well, I tend to strip line so, I only use the reel for really big fish or novelty value. Can't comment on that really. I suppose you get what you pay for.I'd say it's 2.5/5 but I wouldn't be surprised if you end up buying a more expensive reel not long after considering how competive the <£70 market is.
