StigaBullet Ping Pong Paddle – 5-ply Extra Light Blade – 2mm Premium Sponge – Flared Handle for Masterful Grip – Performance Table Tennis Racket for Competitive Play

I am not a serious ping pong player, but I have owned a nice table for years and I enjoy playing with my family. My favorite paddle broke recently, so I was looking for a replacement when I came across some new models from Stiga. I ordered the Carbon+ model for myself and this Bullet model for my wife. I am not sure how this paddle compares to the ones professional players use, but it's much better than the one I was using before. I can tell how much nicer the rubber is on each side of the paddle when I'm playing. I'm able to get much more spin on the ball than I could before, and I'm also able to better control my returns against heavy shots. If you love ping pong and you're looking to up your game, I would absolutely recommend this Stiga paddle based on my experience with it.

It is not as good as it was described.

Serves me right, should have never bought preassembled. This is good for the recreational garage player. Not enough for collegiate or club play.

First of all, this ping pong paddle ships in a really nice, really beautiful box that displays the paddle nicely and opens to reveal the paddle beautifully. It's a fun "unboxing" experience for a new owner, but it also means this paddle makes a great gift.The paddle itself is also excellent. The overall weight is nice, and the handle is really comfortable. I do like the way the flare at the end of the handle feels in my hand.The paddle surface is also extremely grippy! With a little skill, you can apply some massive spin with this thing!Although this paddle is rated lower for "control" (only 78/100), I still found it to be very precise, allowing me to pick up small shots over the net and pick out choice angles across the table.At its list price ($69.99), this feels a bit expensive, but it's certainly a big upgrade.

I switched out my other paddle which rubber was getting smooth with this paddle and wow what a difficult it made for my shots. I'm able to apply more spin now since the rubber is more tacky and it's light weight which make me feel like I'm able to flick faster. My chops seems like they are applying more back spin to the ball now as it slower down more than my last paddle, but that could have been because of how worn it was. Overall it's a look looking paddle and I enjoy using it to destroy my coworkers (just kidding, I lose to able half the people who are dedicated in the office).

This is a super nice ping-pong paddle. I have some other nice paddles, including another one from this Stiga brand, but this is the nicest one we own. The other Stiga paddle is a three-star, and we can appreciate the improvements in this four-star paddle. This paddle is a little lighter in weight, for easier maneuverability, and it has great grip and spin. This paddle just feels great to play with, and definitely gives you better ball control. It is definitely the best paddle we own. Definitely recommended.

When we purchased this paddle, we had no idea that there was a price and usage range for ping pong paddles. Now we do! Woah!This thing is beautiful if paddles can be beautiful!Just the box it came in oozes class!The guys think it has great control, speed/zip, and feels good in the hand- what more could you want? Granted we have been using cheap paddles that came with the table up till now. Now we know!Highly recommended. Worth paying a bit more for quality.

Upon first impression, this ping pong paddle is beautifully packaged and would make an excellent gift. In terms of performance, it feels well-balanced in the hand and is constructed with high quality. The only downside is that I can no longer blame the paddle for my poor playing skills. It is certainly more durable than the cheap paddles I constantly need to replace. Overall, it offers great value for its longevity and performance.
