I haven't used one. But I have seen the hype. One thing that kinda throws me off about them is that there are already several of them being sold in classified ads on other forums.

I have a penn fathom 2 speed that I like, and if you look around you can find them writhing the same price range of the metalloid. One difference between the two is that fathom 2 speed has a thrust bearing and the metalloid does not. That bearing is a good option to have in that price range.
