Completely exceeded my expectations!! ! I know that Handing is a great brand and I knew that the M1 line was of good quality, but I didn't imagine it was this good. The reel is amazing! Very well finished, with quality components. I haven't tested it yet, but I will use it on a Resolute 2-6lbs rod. The kit is going to be amazing! Although the 500 model is not that small, I wish there was a 800 model, but it jumps from 500 to 1000. To make this reel even better, it was missing the "acorn" handle. It would be even more comfortable! But it's worth remembering that I paid LESS THAN R$100 for this reel. You can't demand too much kkkk In short, just thank you... The order arrived well-packaged, with no damage to the products, and within the expected timeframe!

Very satisfied, a top-notch finish. I bought the 500, which is a sturdy 500 with strong drag, very good for using an ultra-light rod. It's perfect, I give it a 10 out of 10 compared to many more expensive brands. I loved it, fast shipping, arrived before expected 🤩❤️🔥

The reel exceeded expectations and is of such high quality! From shipping, packaging, to the first use. I got the 500 and its drag is incredibly good, a lightweight reel that rotates smoothly when turning the handle. I'm happy, especially because it has 10 bearings, no domestic brand in Brazil has this option in this price range. The brand's support is extremely effective and fast; I spoke with them via email.

This is a great little reel with also great quality. Straight after i received that one i ordered another one coz they are great for the money. Gears are smooth and they are really well made. Now i have 5 handing reels including m1 pro. Previously i ordered kastking reels megatrons and kapstan elite which is £127 . Onestly not wort the money. In all of them gears was rubbing inside even in kapstan elite hs just void that brand. To this day im fighting to receive my money back from them. So no more kastkrap anymore. Handing is my choice now 😁

I already have a grey and yellow 2000 series m1 which i really like, so i ordered a black 500 series for ultralight fishing. As it says in the description: the 500 series does not have the reverse lever option that the higher series do have. But you do get a good quality lightweight and compact fishing reel that you can easily throw into a backpack with a light fishing rod and some lures. The fit and finish is beautifully done, and these m1 fishing reels feel super smooth to use. Fishing reels of similar quality cost 3x more here in the netherlands. Thank you seller!
