Fun, sturdy set
This paddle ball set is surprisingly high quality for the price. The wooden paddles feel solid and well-balanced, with a smooth finish that gives a satisfying pop on contact. The included X-40 balls have great bounce and durability — perfect for both backyard games and quick matches at the park. I like that the grip is comfortable and doesn’t slip, even after a long game. The set’s lightweight design makes it easy to carry around, and it’s great for players of all ages and skill levels. Overall, it’s a fun, reliable set that delivers exactly what you need for an active afternoon outdoors.

Pickleball Glory, Slight Elbow Doom
This Activator paddle from Franklin was my first paddle. Great control, solid pop, and the sweet spot’s bigger than my uncle’s bald spot. It's the perfect starter paddle. Only reason it’s not 5 stars? After 3 games, my elbow filed a formal complaint( tennis elbow). Might be user error... or I’m just old. Either way, this paddle hits harder than my grandma’s moonshine. It's a solid wood paddle....Would recommend...... just stretch first.

Great game and very easy to take place!
This paddle set is perfect for casual games with friends or family. The wood paddles feel sturdy and well-made, and the grip is comfortable even during longer games. The balls bounce nicely and hold up well after multiple uses. It’s great for beach days, backyard fun, or just passing time outside. It’s not super advanced or competitive, but for something laid-back and fun, it’s a great choice. Easy to carry and definitely worth having around for summer. looking to hopefully try more fun games like this!
Fun Times
Paddle ball has quickly become my output for exercise. Great workout and not as physically demanding and say, tennis. This set worked perfectly for my wife and I to go out and have a bit of fun while getting in our workout.
Good for beginners
This paddle ball set is nice. Great weight, grip and price especially if you're just starting out like I am. It was a good value for the price. Great beginner set.
Everything needed for paddle ball
This has everything I needed for the game of paddle ball. The grip on the handle is comfortable and easy to hold. It was all ready to be used right out of the package. It is good quality and fun.
Great product
I like that these rackets . I like for that but I don't want to buy expensive rackets. These rackets are cheap but good quality. Love it comes with two balls and strikers!
Perfect for beginners
Bought this set as a first time player, it has been perfect as it comes with the ball and a raquet for a friend. Another users have mentioned that it breaks immediately, I have played 5 or 6 times (~90min each time) and it has not broken yet *fingers crossed*.

The kids love it.
I don't have anything else to compare these to. But my kids love this set and they ride their bikes to the court to play all the time. They haven't complained about anything with the set so that's a win in my book.
