USAPA Approved Pickleball Paddles Set, Carbon/Fiberglass Polypropylene Honeycomb Core, Extended & Thickened Grip, 4 Pickleballs & Portable Bag

So we are a first timer on playing Pickleball. I’ve read reviews for this product and personally I think that this product delivers plus I like the color and it already comes to the bag and for pickle balls. It’s a steel for the price and I think that this is the money I paid for.

I've been playing about 15 hours a week for a year, and I've tested a LOT of low-to-intermediate level paddles. For about $25/paddle, these are decent.When I first picked these paddles up I thought I was gonna hate em because they have a slightly shorter/stubbier format to them. That, and perhaps more importantly, any carbon/fiberglass paddle that uses a blend of fiberglass in the surface (and yet still tries to tout itself as a carbon fiber paddle) is usually as bad as a plain fiberglass paddle with the addition of a scammy marketing ploy in which it pretends to be something better.But these paddles actually performed quite well for being a fiberglass blend paddle.THE GOOD:The specs say 7.7 - 8.1oz and the 2 paddles in my set came in right in that range at 7.8 and 7.9oz. These use a longer than average handle which is better for those who prefer a 2-handed backhand stroke. They feel light and maneuverable. And, for a $25 paddle, the sweet spot is relatively good. (Granted, this may be due to the fact I've played enough that I am more consistent in hitting from the center of the paddle.) Compared to other fiberglass paddles around the same weight and price-point, these perform well. I expected a lower twist weight (worse) but found that these still had enough stiffness and power to smoothly handle returning deep, powerful groundstrokes from my opponents.Net play felt well controlled... no popping the ball up too high. And it felt very easy to control the ball up at the kitchen.CONS:This is still a beginner level paddle. If you play against strong players with mid-to-pro tier paddles, they are going to knock you around. Especially playing hard fast groundstrokes to your baseline.In addition, this paddle doesn't offer much in terms of spin or texture.Also... the bag and the balls that most starter sets come with are worthless. They increase the costs you end up paying without giving anything useful back to you. That's true with this set as well.SUMMARY:If you are just starting out playing pickleball, this set beats a lot of other beginner sets. If you want a lighter paddle in the 7.8oz zone, prefer a longer handle, don't want to spend more than $50 for 2 paddles and don't care about spin right now... I'd say this is a set well worth considering.

Having fun with!!

Nice paddles for beginners.

Mobile and easy to install for use. Grandkids and grandparents love it

I like the look of the paddles and bag. I used them and they worked great.

This is a great set for the beginner pickleball player. It came with 4 paddles and 4 balls in a carrying case, allowing my kids to play together. We have just started playing pickleball, so we don’t have a lot of experience to compare this set with others. The only downfall is that one of the balls broke on the second time using, it split in the middle where the seam is. Overall, this is a great set for the family who wants to learn to play pickleball.

Great deal! Great quality!
