ButterflyNakama Table Tennis Racket - Recommended for Beginner & Intermediate Level Players - Includes Two Free 40+ Balls - Approved by The International Table Tennnis Federation

Nice grip and possible strong drive

Butterfly produces a broad range of paddles for beginners to pros. I have used their paddles (tested a few others) for decades and they have proven reliable and of high quality dollar for dollar.

La raqueta se, es impecable en calidad, pero llego golpeada, no se si mal manejo del transportista o tienda que me vendió

I wanted to get a cheap paddle to let other people use when I didn't want to share my nice paddle. I guess this paddle fulfills that role, but it's super slow; like I feel like I'm playing baseball every time I spike the ball. The rubber is decently tacky so spin isn't too much of an issue; the build quality is decent as well. It's a meh paddle, I'd go for a different one for a little more money if this was my main racket.

I had been playing with the Stiga Pro Carbon for almost a year before it broke (my doing), and since they were no longer on sale at a great price, I decided to try Butterfly seeing as they are another highly rated MFG of paddles, this is a reasonably priced paddle, and it was recommended for more advanced players. After playing with this paddle for 2 weeks, I am disappointed in how it performs. I play with people who use spin, power, etc. and this paddle does not handle any of that with ease. Returning a shot with topspin and the ball shoots to the moon it seems. Forget about returning any shot with backspin. With my Stiga I was curling loopers with ease, with great placement, and it came naturally as soon as I started using it. With this paddle, forget about trying to loop shots to the corners because it offers little to no movement. I've also noticed that ballspeed dies on contact which completely negates any defensive ability when taking on a hard hit shot. The sound it makes when the ball hits also sounds like there isn't any rubber padding whatsoever. In all, I wish I would have paid more for the Stiga that I had instead of exploring other brands, because if I cannot return this paddle it was a big waste of money.

It does it’s job well
