I have a home-built bat for 110, a Joola Rosskopf Autograph for about 30 and this Hudora wants someone to play for under 10. If with less experience, or someone forgot his bat, or just for ping pong, recreational game recommended the bats definitely. It is much used, primarily outside (dirty) and he still has a lot of grip. Of course you can not expect too much, but for the price range definitely a buy recommendation for under 10. Can nothing go wrong :-)
