New Diawa Saltist Lever Drag Reels?

[fishlawsophy]

These things look sweet. They have been out for a little while now. For those of you that have fished them, what do you think of them? Anything you don't like about them?

Also, would you consider these reels relatively low maintenance?

I love my old Daiwa sl20s because you can abuse them and they keep on working good as new.

Thanks in advance.
