a Hard no! lol. This pickleball Paddle is heavy n hard to handle. Best to buy a slightly better beginner pickleball paddle. Don’t use wooden paddles. Waste of money.

After one use the handle broke off. I would not recommend getting this pickle ball paddle set. It was cheaply made.

We used these 3-4 times before one of them broke. It was great for a quick, i store pickup when we decided to learn how to play one day but they won’t last long.

Convenient to pickup at Target when just getting started in Pickleball, but both paddles broke after 2 weeks. Handles became loose/began to separate from the actual paddle. Cheap enough if you’re not sure you want to play, and are just looking to try out the sport!

Ok for a new learner, but definitely need a better racket if you’re a serious player. This one is heavy.

Would not recommend these for beginner players. They break very easily! If you want to get a good feel for the game, invest in a paddle with carbon fiber
