Review on Competition-Level Ping Pong Set: JOOLA Blizzard & Blackout Rackets, 5 Balls & Storage Box - Indoor/Outdoor Use! by Danny Robertson

100% would not recommend. The very first time my wife and I played the Blizzard paddle started to delaminate. I used would glue to fix the desalination, the next day the opposite side started to desalination. Within a week of getting the paddle we went to a friend's house to play, during a normal swing on a ball the handle snapped from the paddle. This is the worst build quality I have ever seen in a paddle. We have $5 Prince paddles that have held up far better. So far the Blackout paddle has held up as far as build, but it leaves a smell on my hand similar to artificial catfish bait. This is the last time I will buy a Joola product. If you are in the market for a really great paddle, I purchased the Killerspin Jet-black paddle and it has held up through traveling to the middle-east and back. Over the last 8 months I have run that paddle through the ringer and it has not let me down.Update: Now the Blackout Paddle has broken at the handle, Killerspin paddle is still going strong. I reaffirm that I will not buy another Joola product. Build quality was absolutely terrible. Love my Prince table and Killerspin paddle.
