Review: Great Table Tennis Racket for Beginners and Hobby Players - I am a table tennis player with a 1300 rating (after 9 months of play, out of 3000) at USATT, and I bought this racket for when I play with beginners, and also for me to practice technique. I usually play with a Yasaka Battle Balsa racket with Rakza 7 Soft / Rakza PO rubbers. I was very impressed with the quality of this Palio racket. It came with protective plastic sheets over the rubbers. The handle is very comfortable (flared). As I do with all my rackets, I used grade 50 sandpaper to round off the edges of the blade to accomodate my sensitive office worker hands. I then used grade 400 sandpaper to smooth the handle and then I used Walmart MINWAX polyurethane clear satin varnish to make the racket look beautiful even after playing with my usually sweaty hands (see photo). Most table tennis rackets come with sharp(er) edges so I just give this option for people who like more comfort. The "speed" or hardness of the wood blade is usually expressed using a scale of 0-100, or the DEF/DEF+/ALL-/ALL/ALL+/OFF-/OFF/OFF+ scale where "DEF" is a racket for defensive players (softer wood, slower bounce) up to OFF+ which is a racket for offensive players (hard top wood, fast bounce, difficult to control shots). On this scale I would rate this racket an ALL-. The rubbers on both sides are fairly "spinny", so one can impart a lot of rotation in addition to speed to the ball. They are not too different from the Rakza 7 Soft I am usually playing (both having a soft sponge), i.e., serves look the same with respect to the curve of the ball which changes with rotation (spin) on the ball. This racket makes it easy to control the ball which is good for beginners. I could easily do all the strokes even against strong top spin. Note that ALL- doesn't mean the shots are slow, with the correct technique one can do loop kill shots just like with an aggressive paddle, with a bit more effort. Conversely, doing defensive strokes such as push or block is very easy with this racket. In summary, this is a surprisingly great racket for the $40 price for beginners for the first year. In addition, watch the Youtube videos from yangyang TT to start with the correct technique and you will be a table tennis pro in no time.
Review: Great Beginner Paddle - As with every purchase, I did extensive research before making my first paddle purchase. I must say this Palio paddle definitely did not disappoint. The most important thing when learning to play ping pong/table tennis is learning the basics and building control of the ball. This paddle definitely helped me with that. I used this paddle 3-5 hours, 5 days a week and boy did I play the heck out of it. Within a few months I went from hitting the ball off the table like a noob to beating tougher players using pro blades! For the price, this is a great BEGINNERS paddle. I will emphasize that again, this is a BEGINNERS paddle. The rubber has good grip however it does not have that bounce that higher end paddles have. It does dampen the hit of the ball which contrbutes to slower play but more control. As a beginner, control is more important than speed and this paddle helps with that. I was able to learn and properly execute a bunch of serves that created lots of spin. The paddle itself is well built. I did not have any issues with my paddle as others have mentioned. I also did not to abuse it or hit the table with my paddle. The one thing I do recommend is getting a proper paddle rubber cleaner and spong. I used mild soap and water and noticed this dulled my rubber right away. I recommend cleaning the rubber before and after each use to maintain the rubber's grip. The carry case itself is simple, nothing special about it however it did hold up pretty well considering I travelled with it 5 days a week. The zipper did not come loose or jam. The case has a thin layer of padding but I wouldn't recommend dropping the case and paddle as it may cause damage. The case is mostly meant to keep dirt away. After 6 months of extensive use, I am beginning to notice the rubber separating from the blade around the other edges. I believe this to be normal as I used this paddle extensively in such a short amount of time. Although I built a great foundation with this paddle, it is now time for a more intermediate-pro paddle rather than replacing the rubber.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plush paddle for the price.
*by D***L on March 29, 2026*

I've been using this paddle for approximately one year. I love how thick the padding is. I get compliments from fellow coworker competitors (we have an outdoor ping pong table at my office) who are amazed I'm able to return their slams...I credit this paddle.
