I have a 560 Slammer. It's a decent reel if you're not going to get it wet or put a lot of strain on the gears (like jugging the Canal, for example). I have it on an All Star 1088. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of Power pro line, I'm running the original load of 40# PP on it and I haven't had problems with tangles--yet. But for what you pay, a Stradic from Shimano is a much better buy. Smoother reel, probably as durable if not more so, and you get an equal quality spare spool with it.
Whether made in USA or China, Slammers have a pot metal main gear.
