I love this racket. More spin and pace than I realized a racket could generate. The only down side to this racket is that the edges of the rubber chip, fray, and fall off.

I bought this paddle to replace a Stiga that I'd been playing with. I've found the Carlos Chiu to have a very high spin capacity, living up to why I bought it. I played 19 games straight with it and was consistently pleased with the spin it put on the ball. On more than one occasion my opponent swung and completely missed the ball due to the spin.
The only real negative I've found with it is that it is heavier than my previous paddles.

Without question, this is a giant step up from the 2 for $10 set my wife bought for the kids. Aside from that, if I were good enough to tell the difference, I'm sure I'd want a much higher-end product. Since I'm not that good, this is certainly a decent "racquet" for the price.

This paddle is pretty much as advertised. It has enough grip to it to enable spinning and will speed up your game. I think it is a great value for someone who wants to get their first racket but doesn't want to spend too much on it. Three of us purchased this and we seem to stay in the game with those that spent $100 or more on their rackets.
