Great beginner racquet! Spec review here.
This racket is a great starter racket for the total beginner who isn’t sure if they will be playing more than a couple times a year. I bought it a long time ago on Amazon to play and learn with, then quickly upgraded racquets about 4 or 5 months later once I realized I love the sport. Those 5 months allowed me to truly enjoy learning the game for a minimal investment.Now for the nitty-gritty, since the specs aren’t on the frame itself:The oversize (110 sq. in.) head size provides you with a larger sweet spot for a more forgiving racket on mishits. This is perfect as it is very encouraging for a beginner or inexperienced player.The racket weighs in at 11.5oz strung (326g). Unstrung that would be around 10.9oz (309g) so it may be a bit on the heavier side for a very small kid or older (65 yr. old) player. However, it is a nice weight overall - in fact the racket I initially upgraded to had a fairly comparable weight although a smaller head size. As a general guideline, you’re supposed to use the heaviest racket you can handle for a few hours of play without exhausting your muscles by the end of the matches due to the weight.The balance of the racquet is 3 points head-light. Adding this spec for those who are wanting to know, but basically that means it’s easily maneuverable and you won’t struggle with it in your hands at the net or on the serve, or even at the baseline. It’s a very nice balance point.The strings never broke on me which was nice, as by the time they loosened up enough to get it restrung I was ready to upgrade rackets. Not sure which strings they put in it, but they did provide good power and I was able to apply good spin to the ball as well.Overall, I didn’t care about the specs at all when I bought it. If you’re thinking about getting this racket, then you probably aren’t that interested in the specs either. Is this a racket for serious competitors? Of course not, let’s not kid anyone - when starting a new sport, you don’t need to break the bank buying Cadillac equipment. But is it one to get if you’re unsure you will stay with the sport? Yes. Is it one to get if you want one to go have fun with your friends every now and again without investing much? Definitely. Is it one to get to have a couple extras laying around for visiting friends who don’t regularly play? Absolutely. All in all, I highly recommend this racket for the beginner!
Senior racket
Used by senior grandma and it is great.
It is a great gift for a future tennis lady!
I purchased this racquet for a 14 year old teenager who was advised to get this one. It was a total surprise when she came home from school and found it on the doorstep. She told me that she loves it and wanted it for her summer tennis lessons.
Perfect for beginners.
With the right grip size, this racket was perfect for my son, age 15 to take a 10 week tennis class over the summer. He was using an older version of the same quality. After replacing his old racket with this new one, he improved a great deal. This was just the right size and quality to continue growing in his skills. It’s inexpensive enough to use for a couple of years and then replace if he finds he wants to play tennis more regularly.
Not a tennis player, so good enough for me. I’m a golfer
I’m not a tennis player so it is good enough for me just to swat the ball around
Good size and weight for first racquet.
My 11 years old is very happy with her first tennis racquet.

I was initially worried about the handle size, but this is great! It works as a starter racquet or a leisure racquet.

Just bought the raquet. It looks nice. Has cool green color. Haven’t played with it or anything, so I have no idea if it’s a good racquet or not.
