You will not regret it...Hardest thing I ever did was buy the first one for that money til I used it. The next three got easier. Just dont do what I did.....cradled it like a baby all the way from the store to the truck...laid it down nice and soft...drove home extra slow shaking my head looking at my 200.00 rod next to me. Walked in the house held it up and said " Look honey aint she beuatiful" and stuck it right in the ceiling fan running....luckily it only wacked it once and didnt hurt it one bit.....**** good rods..
