depends what you're using it for... I have a 1000 size Daiwa Harrier (about 15 years old) and it's really too small to be totally useful, so I tend to use a 2000 or 2500 with that rod size more often...
I have 3 aird 2000 reels and an aird TDT71LXS 2/4kg rod. The reels are great value for money and come with spare spools. They have decent drags. The rod is good too but its more like a 4kg rod than 2kg. Not as whippy as my Trion. love my Trion.
The aird reels seem to get good reviews.
