Just seeing  if anyone has had any experience with this reel and do you like it . How does it compare to the other reels like citica and curado. Thanks

Good caster, but not aS smooth as the curado/citica. But it palms better. 

There's so much value in the citica and up I can't see going below that. If the budget won't support that price point look at a PQ on sale.

Agree completely, the Citica can be found for basically the same price as the Casitas.  Go with the aluminum framed Citica.

Yeah that was kinda what I was thinking too. Thanks for the input 

Mine arrived yesterday for 100 bucks, and I can't wait to try it out. My initial thoughts are it's smooth,palms great, and of course it's light being graphite. I agree with the people above about getting a metal frame reel over a graphite one, but I've never had any problems with the few graphite reels that I own. Also, I would get the citica if I was going to pay near full retail for the casitas.
