Palio Master 3.0 Table Tennis Bat & Case | ITTF-Approved Intermediate Ping Pong Racket | Allround Speed, Spin and Control | Case, ITTF-Approved, Allround Speed, Spin, Control

Great product for a very good price! You can put plenty of spin with these Table Tennis Bats

This was my first competitive paddle, and I have been nothing but satisfied. I was able to improve my game vastly using this paddle. I use a fair amount of spin, and was able to see a lot of progress once I started using it. My game has improved beyond using only one paddle, but I still use this one equally with the new one I purchased. My coach recommended this to me as the best bang for the buck in a beginner paddle, and after using it for several months, I agree with him 100%.

This paddle hits amazingly well, perfect balance of speed and spin for me (I just play for fun with friends, but am decent--I hit pretty much exclusively topspin shots and this racquet has the best feel of any I've tried). It's very lightweight too. I have had butterfly paddles in this price range as well as the Palio Expert II (which was also great), and this has been the best one by far. Unfortunately, the handle snapped off within a little over a month of play. I didn't hit it on the table or anything, just the torque of a hard backhand snapped it. Again, Im just a recreational player, so I don't know if how I hold the paddle is proper, it's just what works for me. I think that may have contributed to it snapping, but I have never had this happen on another paddle, even over years of usage. If you are super into ping pong, I'd still recommend it--maybe this one was just a dud. But if you just want a good paddle for messing around with friends, maybe find something more durable.

I would consider myself an intermediate player. For the first time in years now playing a few times a week. This is a nice upgrade from a basic paddle. Clearly better spin and control. I am very happy with it

This is my first, not generic racket, I love it. I can finally spin and respond to spinned shots! I knew it wasn't just my skills, the racket does matter a lot. It is a little bouncy but I love it.

Dead paddle. Less bounce than a $5 foamless paddle. Sending it right back, I’d say it must be defective.

My plan was to switch to a wood bat for improved feedback on hits. I tried this paddle having previously played with a Stiga Pro Carbon, but it felt like too much of a downgrade. It provides nice control but was too slow for me. A little subjective, however I think calling this paddle "intermediate" is a stretch. It weighed in at 156 grams. Pretty light-weight if that is something you are looking for. On a more negative note. I was not pleased with the packaging of this item, it was too minimal and did not fully protect the bat. The rubber was nicked in several spots due to inadequate packaging. Also, the quality of the assembly seemed mediocre. The edge tape was not even flush against the blade. I ended up going with a custom made paddle for around the same price, and I am much happier with it. If you want the most bang for your buck, I would recommend doing a little research, and then buying your blade and rubbers separately. There's several places out there that will assemble it for you too.

Amazing racket! This racket is extremely high quality from the case, to the core, to the rubber. Everything about this racket screams professional. I have bought many rackets and I have never seen such an impressive looking set up. The feel of hitting the ball with this is simply unmatched. With this incredible example of engineering, I instantly became the best player in the club. Every aspect of my game improved from my serves, to offensive play and defensive play. This is just an all around good racket. It is excellent for both beginners, and advanced players. I truly cannot see any possible improvements to this impeccable piece of equipment.

Great bats at a great price

I like that this bat provided a well rounded performance with good control and power that helped me to master the basics. Will definitely move onto a more aggressive bat once I am ready but I will highly recommend this to newer players who are still mastering the fundamentals

This is a fantastic racket, for intermediate and even new players if you start with. You need just to give it a week of playing and when your hand got use to it, you rock it. If you are coming from other rackets, specially 5 ⭐️, you may find it a little bit heavier. Control: 80/100 Speed: 85/100 Topspin: 90/100 🤩

I was playing table tennis occasionally in the past with whatever racket I would find. For the last month, I started to learn the techniques and bought this racket. So far I am really satisfied. It's not a fast racket but it has great control. I can clearly see the difference, how good my spins became too. I was failing badly with fast rackets so I guess this one is good for beginner-intermediate players.

Perfect for beginner - intermediate level.
