Very nice
I was not a fan of KastKing until this reel. Very Very nice. Yes, it's heavy but suck it up because it's worth it. Have already bought another variation.

Worked well until it broke
Only had it out a few times and suddenly it stopped winding. Took it apart and found that one of the gear supports had cracked. It was cheap cast metal, I tried to find a replacement but had no luck. Might try to 3D print something, but in any case the internals of this reel are junk.

No warranty support
I got from them 8-10 their top modle reels, 2 fishing rods, back packs. Reels are great while they work. 2 of the 300 elite (their top model) stated squeeking at the beginning of October 2025. 10 months into usage. I call their customer support. Left message. Guy called back. Told me they do not have facility now for repairs. Asked me to go to the website fill put warranty form and they will send me 2 new replacement reels back. That was last time I heard from them. Tried contacting them Nov 29th, Dec 2nd, today. Nothing. No call back, no contact, no reels. Customer support after purchase is no good. Warrnaty is no good in my case. Consider other options before buying this one. They work great till they break. No support from Kastking. Now, I cannot even leave them voiceail. Busy signal.

High Speed Kapstan Elite Spinning Reel 6000
Delivered to the house on time and Reel very well packaged from KastKing for item protection. For a spinning reel of this size compared to others, is a little bit heavier do due all the components that are involved within the built-in. Feel smooth and seems to hold a lot of braided fishing line. Bail is not automatically closed so it has to be manually closed. Also I tested it with all drag tight and it doesn't move meaning that it can hold some very large fish fight. At the moment it has not been assigned to a fishing rod but I could come back for an update after fishing with it.

Impressive Reel, Disappointing Packaging
I love the reel and the box it comes in looks awesome as well. I was disappointed to discover the box was damaged after opening the Amazon box. No damage or scratches to the reel but I would have liked to have a nice box to keep it in.
