Great for the Price

Perfect beginner set for kids. My 11 and 7 year olds loved them. We got 2 sets so family of four could play. A bit clunky for me and the plastic edging doesn't seem ideal if you're really into the sport but overall, a solid set.

Good for beginners

This pickleball set is great for beginners, i have had mine for quite some time now and they have held up. They are a little heavy compared to the more expensive pickleball paddles, but I don’t mind - I am a beginner. The balls last a very long time too. Great bargain if you are looking to get into pickleball!
