Plays the AT10 18K 2025 and finds it excellent overall: a big sweet spot, very manoeuvrable, comfortable in defence and great on spin shots. It feels a bit flat on flat smashes and flat hits, though kick smashes work well (post in Italian).

In shortPlayers find it manoeuvrable, forgiving and easy on the arm, with good control and a big sweet spot. The main complaint is a soft, trampoline-like feel, worse in warm weather and on blocks, and many want more power on smashes. Several report cracking.

Left-side player who plays six days a week calls it an almost perfect racket: easy to manoeuvre with a large sweet spot, great with slow and medium balls thanks to its medium feel, good in defence, and precise on volleys with lots of spin. The downsides are a flat smash that lacks finishing power from deep and a slightly slow feel in very fast games.

“it's a fantastic training racket, rewards clean technique, but doesn't punish you too harshly.”
After 1.5 years with the AT10 18K 2025 as their first racket, it feels good in defence but holds back their volleys and overheads, so they want something harder.

“while the 18k feels good on defense, i’ve been working a lot on my volleys and overhead shots and that’s where i feel like the racket is kinda holding me back”
Rotating it with a Metalbone, a 2.8–3 left-side player finds the AT10 18K 2025 the best in defence: super agile and safe.
