Best Bang For your buck offshore reel out there!
My go-to reel for offshore tuna fishing in the northeast. I've got two 25s and one 12 and love all 3 of them. I've caught tuna up to 200+ lbs without much of an issue. The two speed drag is awesome and the whole thing is super smooth. Value for money: Best value product out there in my opinion

Can't go wrong! It's a winch and butter smooth!
I'm a published author of fishing books and have put my fair share of time on many reels. I do a lot of offshore grouper and snapper digging and own all the sizes. These reels just flat out perform and crank effortlessly. They are butter smooth! A buddy just bought a penn 2 speed and I tried it out, and all I can say it wow, these reels perform so much better. The biggest area of like is when cranking up big 20-25 gags from 130ft, and 12 pound mangrove snapper from the same, as the reel never locks up on crank like many others do. I pulled in a 24 pound gag and never stopped cranking in line, and it never felt close to locking up to where I had to pump the rod. I prefer to just crank rather than pumping the rod, and this reel feels like a winch on low speed. I tried the high speed on a 8ish pound ARS and it was jerky like the penn on low speed, but that was accidental as I forgot to engage low speed after a bait change. Great reel...thank me later! In use for 6 months to date, so I'll update after I get more time on them.

smooth as silk
i got this as a cheaper alternative to increasing the number of trolling setups i have on my offshore boat. i went with the 20 because of the 44lbs drag settings (pulling planers) but wish i had got the 16 for the smaller frame size and still 40lbs of drag. but the reel is smooth as silk, zero complaints about it.

Great build quality, heavier than many other heavy, conventional, surf casting reels
Great reel, using it mostly for shoreline, surf casting

Hi/Lo gear makes a huge difference.
This is my go to for bottom fishing and have had my fair share of some big grouper , mutton snapper, and some kings and wahoo. Definitely recommend you get it

Nice mechanics. Paint bubbles off within a year.
Reels function great. They look nice too. We are a busy charterboat and they are great light tackle offshore reels. But the paint bubbles off and Shimano has a bum warranty department and hard to deal with.
