We have this combo and use it weekly in our pond but it is not a very good performer after some use for my little ones. They constantly have issues reeling in even with the drag set tight and the casting is very lackluster. Get the micro 33 instead honestly. The rod is ok for kids and has come apart a few times when reeling in a bluegill but otherwise fine for a kid.

Thanks for the recommendation @smokeytreats. I have an 8 year old for the life of him cannot not tangle into a hot mess every time we go fishing with a spinning reel. Oddly enough, my 4 year olddoesn't get tangled with the same spinning reel combo. I'm researching the zebco 33 micro now due to your recommendation. Tight lines!

The 33 is going to be a huge upgrade over this. Not sure if it is possible to find the high end ones.
This one here uses all plastic gears. 20 years ago they were all better made. I'd buy and replace the bearings upgrade them. Used spincasters exclusively for over 10 years. Friend handed me a bait caster. Fishing got a lot more expensive after that.
But really, I had a lot success with this type of reels. Just get a 33 or something similar. Try garage sales and you'll probably find them at this price.

Can you link to the micro 33 that you recommend? Looking for something for myself and kiddo to get started on.
The Zebco 33[walmart.com] reel is one of the best reviewed, more inexpensive reels, and I use them all the time in the pond we fish in. They're fine for up to 2 or 3 pound bass, which is about the biggest we usually run into. Last time I bought a 33 was a couple of years ago before Covid, so now I see it's almost double the price!
When I was kayak fishing I put a 33 on this little Dock Demon rod[walmart.com] because it was so durable and easy to keep from hanging up in trees because it's so short. You can bend this rod double, though, and not break it, so it's really durable for kids and fairly easy for them to carry around. The reel it comes with is complete plastic junk, but it might hold up for a bream or two. I just put the 33 on it and took off.
This rod isn't the best but works fine for me. I don't really think the loose line is a big deal. I had one for over 2 years and it's still running. Works well for anything under 3 pounds.

Here's a Micro 33 rod and reel combo [walmart.com], but they're not quite as well reviewed as the full size 33.
