Very good and high-quality racket. It is a racket that can be used by a beginner as it is not very fast and forgives mistakes, while once you get used to it, it can help a lot to improve technique and play more correctly compared to a very cheap one. It is my second racket. The first one was a cheap one for 5€ with a 1.5mm sponge, which after the first three games started to deform the sponge-rubber and the marks from the ball became visible. The Dynamic racket has nothing to do with quality and obviously will have a significantly longer lifespan. There are definitely better rackets out there, but for the 16€ it costs, I think it deserves 5 stars. In my opinion, this particular racket is one of the best choices for those who are starting or have been playing ping pong for a short time.
