Plenty of power on smashes, but several report arm pain or errors from the back court.
A score out of 100 for how well reviewed a product is next to others of its kind. It rises with positive reviews and with how many there are; negative and mixed reviews take points off. The best in each category scores in the 90s.
So a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product lots of people like. No sponsored placements.

PositiveThey tried it for a set with friends alongside two other rackets and liked it the most. They found it easy to use.
Players mostly agree it has plenty of power, especially on smashes. The trade-offs are a smaller sweet spot, less forgiveness and extra weight, with several reporting arm pain or control errors in the back court. Suits attackers more than control players.
