When I bought this I was scared of the bad reviews. But boy...this was just the reel I was looking for. It is really strong, the lock is perfect because I can make an effect at the END of my act, and not necesarilly in the beginning (In my case, it had to be at the end).

Just a few points. It can make a loud sound because of one of the parts clashing, but with some tape and foam I managed to overcome it. It is also a little bit uncomfortable to set on the jacket, beacuse the reel is a big square and the hook is a bit difficult to set.

Nevertheless I am very satisfied, please don't stop making these, and I'm buying another one right now.

I like the locking line, that allows the line to relax and I can take an object out of me pocket and with a slight tug the line shoots up my sleeve in seconds. A true instant vanish. After watching the tutorial it shows a washer magnet, but this order does not have it. No mention where to get the washer magnet. Guess you have to get that on your own. I will use it.
