Our verdict
Beginners building reliable rallies get a light, soft racket that favours patient placement over decisive overheads. Its flexible fiberglass face and cushioned core make defensive contact approachable, while the modest head weight keeps the swing manageable. Written ratings disagree on how much forgiveness and handling it offers, so treat it as a comfortable starting option with a clear ceiling for attacking play.

How it plays
Power
Power score6.3
Modest finishing help overall. The written ratings disagree on power, but the detailed accounts consistently describe overheads that depend on your acceleration rather than extra punch from the head.
Control
Control score7.3
Useful for restrained placements and defensive lobs. Reviews disagree on control ratings, with some finding a dependable rally response and another rating its precision more cautiously.
Maneuverability
Maneuverability score7.6
Easy to position in the detailed tests, especially for compact blocks. Reviews disagree sharply on the handling score, so the low balance should not be read as a guarantee of exceptional reaction speed.
Sweet spot
Sweet spot score7.5
Forgiving contact is a recurring impression in the written tests. Reviews disagree substantially on the numerical rating, ranging from an ordinary usable area to a notably tolerant hitting zone.
Feel
Soft and cushioned in the detailed accounts. The flexible face and foam reduce the sharpness of contact, although the one explicit comfort rating is more moderate than the enthusiastic prose.
