I own both a saltiga z4500 and a Stella sw 5000 the saltiga is a far heavier reel and feels like its the stronger reel but the 5000sw it's smoother and lighter it is also smaller which I like,suits me better for fishing our gulf.i fish the 4500 at a 24 kg reel and the 5000 as a 15 kg reel .just my opinion both are good
