They're a great rod with probably the best warranty! I started using them when they came out and except for swimbaits and cranking rods, that's all I own.
The quality is good and the price is too. Can't go wrong with em.

6.8 is an awesome rod! used this rod a LOT for drop shotting and split shotting! have caught a lot of BIG bass on it too...handles them fairly well!

I'll tell you what, I have 10 or 15 high dollar rods; Dobyns Extreme, Loomis IMX, St. Croix, you know 250 to 300 dollar rods and I love them especially my Dobyns rods, but I also have a crucial swimbait rod and a spinnerbait rod and there two of my favorites. The swimbait rod is getting a little beat-up as well as my spinnerbait rod but these rods are also 5-10 years old. They definitely don't have the quality bling as the high dollar rods like the guides and different composites like they have now but still I love my crucials
