Review on Beginners: Get Ready To Play With The STIGA Pure Color Advance 2-Player Table Tennis Set! by Chris Budenski

I had the same issue as a previous reviewer regarding the dented paddles, it has something to do with how the packages are stacked on top of each other in storage. I was otherwise happy with the quality of the paddles. I will say that Stiga customer service was great. I emailed them and told them about the problem, and they asked no questions and quickly agreed to send me replacements free of charge. Not only that, they sent me upgraded 3-star paddles that were of a higher quality than the ones I originally received.
