Hardy Ultralite ASR

[fluff-flinger]

Evening gents, looking for a new reel and quite fancy the Hardy ASR but I've seen plenty of bad reviews of the Greys QRS which is a very similar design by Hardy's cheaper sibling. So, is the ASR likely to have the same issues or are you paying the extra for them to have been resolved and not just for a hardy badge on it? TIA

What issues have you seen?

i have the asr in a few sizes and love it.

The issues with the QRS seem to be mainly around the spool locking system disengaging in use. The ASR doesn't seem to have this issue but wanted to hear it from someone with experience of the reel

2 ASR's in my bag as well, no problems at all.
