Rovex are not high-end tackle. They make some nice rods although the fittings tend to be poor.
I'll bet your reel didn't cost that much!

Rovex big boss fixed spool reels are a hardy reel for their price! , low maintanance and simple design. i have 2 big boss 9000 reels and have had no problem with them.
