Kind of, sort of a clone of a Reo. The listing does not give any detail of this mod and only one picture so it is hard to compare. It did mention it was an original bottom feeder product. Comes with atty and no mention if it is a 510 connection.
As an owner of three Reos, I will reserve judgement until the reviews are in.

Well, it's made of aluminum with a square squonk hole in the same place as the REO and the fire button is nearly exact as well. The REO was an original "look" BF mod. I'd say it's pretty close to being a clone 
But hey, I'm just a REO gal what do I know

I have to wonder if it is milled aluminum or tin can folded aluminum like one of my other box mods.
It's a China clone. Not a 1:1 match but pretty close. Enough to be considered a clone I guess.
If you look at the patent details of D649708S, the shown product characteristics come very close to a patent infringement.
I'm no claim specialist and I don't know, in how far US patents can be enforced on an international level.
Even if it is an infringement, Rob will not be able to stop Alibaba or any other international eshop from selling it.
And he can't stop US customers from buying the product there.
It's up to us to stay with the original Reo and spread the word about quality and supplier support and dedication.
These are the things you cannot buy on Alibaba.

Lol....China garbage claiming to be better than the original. Delusions of grandeur me thinks!
Junk! Saw a few of similar "clones" on my recent trip to Asia. Either not "true mechanical" or poorly made. Nothing beats an original Authentic REO and Robert's commitment to Customer Satisfaction. 
The Chinese don't have porcupine dust so the mod is crap, it's all in the application of the porcupine dust trust me. Rob didn't include that in his patent because he doesn't want to spill the beans
edit Besides who the heck would buy a mod called KUI. naahhh

It just doesn't look like it's milled out of a block of alum. to me.
