Interesting product reviews

I am not pushing another site (I like this place) but this is worth reading:

His last review of PowerPro freaked me out cause last year I had that happen twice to me. (mystery breakoffs) I was getting POed cause this was new 50# test line and it was breaking on some NICE fish! I then looked VERY VERY closely at the guides and there was a hairline crack in one of them. It was actually hard to see but when you put a serious bend in the rod it opened up enough to cut the line like a razor. He claims his powerpro breakoffs were pure mystery and not related to guides or knots and switched to stealth and likes it. I may switch just to compare the two. Any of you guys compare PowerPro to Stealth yet?
Beyond the sensitivity to a guide knick, the only thing I don't like about PP is the way it wares. He claims stealth stayes smooth.
