Professional Ping Pong Paddle with Hard Carry Case | Pro Table Tennis Racket | Table Tennis Paddle with Ergonomic Handle | 5 Blades of Wood with Premium Rubber and Sponge by AirBlades

Repeat buyer of their products. The curved handle is great for kids and females. The paddles allow for good consistent striking, can produce great spin, and hold up really well to repeated use.

Absolutely love it! The curved handle helps take my game to the next level. I'm very happy with how responsive the paddle is while playing, I do wish the lettering was the same stickiness as the rest of the paddle. The lettering itself is very slick which could effect how the ball responds to being hit and spun.All my friends thought the paddle was sturdy and good value for the money.I will admit though, the paddle and case have a very strong odd smell. Hoping it goes away sooner rather than later.

I had to replace my old paddle and decided on going a bit different than the typical Stiga or Butterfly. Saw this Airblades and thought I'd give it a shot. I was willing to get the 6 star paddle but none were available so got the 3 star since all that was different was the type of wood used.The grip on this is alright. I've played with much stickier pads and this one seems to be more of a "matte" kind of grip rather than sticky (probably easier to clean too). This paddle can put spin as you want without problem. The logo, as others have mentioned, is kind of in the way and different texture as the rest of the pad. I haven't had any problems but just a note.The handle was probably the selling point for me. Looks aggressive and feels comfortable in the hand (when held the right way). It does feel weird when it's flipped the other way but not often do I flip the paddle during a real match.My only con and deduction of a star would be the hollow sound it makes when hitting the ball. Sounds like there's "dead" spots on the paddle where wood isn't present. Maybe this is the difference between the 6 star and the 3 star, but definitely noticeable when playing. I feel like I would have to hit the ball a little harder than usual to makeup for the hollow spots. Otherwise, it hits the ball over the net lolOverall, I would say this is am all around casual paddle. Good for pick up games and relaxing matches with your people. Looks to be of good quality and should last years if taken care of. I do have to add that the case it comes in is sturdy and stylish. I would recommend this to anyone wanting something different and not your typical black/red paddle!

Outstanding paddle…. Love it with case…

I just used the 6-star paddle for the first time tonight. I'm very pleased with the performance of the paddle. Less pleased with my own performance. After all, a fine paddle is only as good as the player wielding it!I liked the paddle because I have a strong topspin attack, both forehand and backhand, and I quickly felt that I had better control than before.A key component of success in table tennis is confidence in one's ability to execute a shot. The 6-star quickly gave me that great feeling!I'm a good player -- I'd probably be a 1300- or 1400-level player. But nobody's perfect. The three areas of my game that require the most improvement are as follows: (1) return of serve, (2) shot selection, and (3) execution of the selected shot.I know, I know... that would seem to suggest that I have no strong points! Not at all! I'm actually pretty good at setting up my opponent for a generally effective kill shot. So, by "shot selection," I mean: If I HAVEN'T set up my opponent as effectively as I could have, I tend to try to execute the kill anyway. That's just me being dumb, not the fault of the paddle at all! So: I need to play smarter, plainly.However, when I DO force a defensive reply to a shot of mine, and I HAVE set my opponent up for a kill, I then execute that kill far too inconsistently. With the 6-star paddle, I noticed that I was executing my winners better and my confidence was greatly improved as a result. A double win! THAT was thanks to the 6-star paddle, which gripped the ball just that much better, so that my hard topspin forehands and backhands -- my bread and butter! -- were now finding the table, instead of sailing long.As I mentioned, the paddle is a bit grippier than the already grippy one I was using, so I was able to counter spinny serves more effectively, simply by cancelling the serve's spin, and imparting my own... or at worst hitting a knuckle ball back. For me, that was another BIG plus for the paddle.No review of this paddle would be complete without mentioning the unusual handle. The handle is curved, so that it fits comfortably in your hand one way. It ALSO automatically changes the horizontal angle at which the paddle attacks the oncoming ball.That angle, with respect to the floor is closer to parallel, and that requires some adjustment. I made that adjustment almost immediately, so it's not that big a deal. It DOES mean that your reach will be slightly longer automatically, which is pretty good for me. I'm 6'4" tall and have really good reflexes, but I'm by no means quick. Hence, my really long wingspan is an important tool for me. The additional reach will be come in quite handy.One potential downside of this very comfortable handle will be for the twiddlers among us. (Those who flip forehand and backhand sides mid-rally) I'm not one of them, so this had no impact on my game. Furthermore, I haven't seen or played against anyone for whom twiddling is an important weapon in his or her arsenal. But, if twiddling is important to you, this might not be your paddle.The bottom line is that the fundamental areas of my game that most needed improvement DID improve when using the 6-star paddle! So, I'm giving this paddle high marks, and looking forward to using it more in the coming weeks and months.

These feel as light as air compared to other paddles. The handle takes some getting used but I like it overall

Great product fast shipping good price thank you

When you take off the protective film it peels off the logo and leaves the texture of the paddle very strange. One side peeled fine and the other didn't, which is how I can tell the texture is off. Happened on both paddles. Very disappointed!!

I finally got around to setting up our ping pong table in the basement after moving in a few years ago!! Now that my kids are older we've been spending alot of time playing ping pong in the basement.. Before we were just playing with the paddles that came with the table and I went to Walmart and bought their best paddle they had on the shelf. But I thought there has to be better paddles than this!!! After going through a dozen or so paddle reviews on Amazon, I finally decided on these!!!I am so glad I went with these. I was very impressed with the packaging and it was nice that they came with a case and extra rubber. Not only do these look bad a$$ in the white! (Not your typical red and black sided paddle) instantly you can totally feel the difference in control in these compared to my other paddle.If I am ever in the market again for paddles I would buys these hands down.

The quality of this product is exceptional. Beautiful feel paddle with a magnificent case to enclose it. Nice, quick delivery. Very happy.

Five star racket really good for beginners highly recommend worth the money

Great looking blade and plays really well. The included cover is a professional touch.

The paddle (5-star) is a little heavier than what I'm used to. Wish I had started with the lighter one instead but I guess it's just a matter of getting used to it. I like the unconventional curved handle which is shaped to fit comfortably in the hand. The paddle gives a good bounce and it's easy to deliver a spin. The beige colored surface of the sponge looks nice but gets dirty easily. Comes with a lovely case.
