Those look good for being something you can just walk into Walmart and pick up although I wouldn't call it unbelievable based on the specs.  I'm jaded from $60 40 Ton Toray Fuji component rods on though.  Everything looks overpriced now.

 

36 Ton graphite

No name but decent reel seat

No name guides and frames but they are stainless frames with ceramic inserts

Exposed threads on the lock nut but looks like most reels will not expose much of the threads unless a short foot

Nice detailing for the price point with silver paint, thread work winding checks, split grip and some touches of rubberized cork 

 

Walmart's site is garbage.  I can't seem to find anything out about what models these are offered in.  I wouldn't mind a 6' M for Kayak duty to try one out.

 

 

All that’s a available is the 7’MH/F casting rod. 
 

over time I realized you and I judge things differently. You are very technical while I am more of a “it feels good” kind of guy. I have developed a respect for your type of analysis and respect for your opinion.

 

My recommendation is based on it’s less than $40 and fishes better than some rods I paid $80+ dollars for. That’s good enough for me.

 

The exposed threads on my St Croix Triumph $100 rod bother me more than the expose threads on this sub $40 rod. The guides are fine for the mono I use on my Lew’s LFS.

Just imagine when this COVID-19 nightmare is over, all the deals there will be on eBAY, LetGo and other sites lol. 

LOL...OR just imagine how over fished all of our favorite spots are going to be if all these newer fishing folks decide that they like it as much as we do.
