5 out of 5 stars Great Racket!   December 1, 2008
DCG60 (Cental California)
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.


5 out of 5 stars Very good ping pong paddle   November 29, 2008
James R. Eutsler (Cincinnati, OH)
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.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent purchase..   November 23, 2008

The racket description says Speed: 100 Spin: 100 and Control: 95. And this is exactly how I found this racket. It is blitzkrieg fast and spin is also excellent. I had to get a hang of the bat because I found it a bit top heavy ; But it has turned out to be excellent for my mode of play which is primarily offensive. I recommend buying it with a racket case since the rubber seems pretty fragile. I also put the white tape around it to prevent the rubber peeling off.

Overall an excellent product. Kudos to amazon and fellow reviewers!!



3 out of 5 stars It's a ping pong paddle. What do you expect?   October 30, 2008

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.


4 out of 5 stars This Racket is a Step Up   October 24, 2008

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.
