Good Basic Paddle.

This paddle is light and is responsive in terms of how well the ball bounces back when hit. The grip tape is mildly tacky but not excessively so. The paddle surface is mildly to moderately gritty enough for putting spin on the ball. Overall a good basic paddle.

Great Racquet With Smaller Grip

I was looking for a racquet with a smaller grip, and this Paddletek works great. Plus it's lightweight.

As Advertised.

I bought a month ago. It arrived as advertised. Needed a replacement paddle.

Sticky Handle

This is an upgrade from my first pickleball paddle, which cost $40, and I honestly cannot tell whether this one is any better. The handle is also very tacky, which is apparently a feature but can feel like a bug if you're not used to it.

It Improved My Game!

I'm new to pickleball and wanted a decent paddle to start with. I love that it is lightweight and it immediately improved my game as a result.

Really lightweight and easy to control shots! Perfect amount of power to send some rockets to the defenders!

Nice Paddle For The Price

I bought this for my son for Christmas. He is an avid pickleball player and wanted an upgrade. He says that it plays nice and is helping him improve his game. Would recommend!

Wonderful Pickleball Paddle

I’ve enjoyed this paddle. It is a little light but it has great pop.

Nice Grip

Nice grip but just did not have the life off the face I was looking for :(
