Happy with it. Comfortable grip. Nice size good weight

Do Not Buy

I bought this less than two weeks ago. I’ve played with it four times and the rim is completely falling off. The paddle plays nice but as soon as you play a few times falls apart. Really upsetting quality for the price.

Falling Apart

I received this paddle as a gift in March. This past summer it has been falling apart at the frame and disintegrating. While the paddle itself is strong and has helped me become a better player, the quality is not worth it. A good paddle should last longer than 5 months.

Frame Seperated

I’ve only used this racquet for about 4 months and the frame has already separated. I wouldn’t recommend buying it!

Edge Guard Keeps Breaking

I purchased this for my sister for her birthday a year ago and the edge guard came away from the paddle and she exchanged it for the same paddle twice so far and is about to do it for a third time as the same thing keeps happening--that's four paddles in a year. She likes the paddle if it wouldn't keep breaking so this is definitely an issue with this model.

Falling Apart Way Too Quickly

I bought this at the beginning of the summer and after a few months the edge guard is loose and falling off. So frustrating. Do not buy.

Falling Apart

I have been using this paddle for a while now and it started falling apart within a few weeks, I tried to glue it back but it just was not working. I was so disapointed in the quality, especially bc I paid 90 for it.

Good Pickle Ball Paddle

I’ve been playing pickleball for a year just for fun and wanted a new paddle so my family got me the Duchess. :) It is just what I was looking for - super light weight yet thicker than my last paddle and a good price for an upgraded paddle. I’d recommend!

Do Not Buy

This is worse than my Amazon paddle. The frame broke off the paddle. Spend $20-$30 more on a different paddle or go cheaper on Amazon. This is a pretty pattern/color but a terrible paddle.

Falling Apart Already

Got this paddle for Christmas, played about 15 times and the top is separating from the edge, also has a rattle inside, like a piece of the plastic broke loose. Not what I expected from a reliable company and a $90 paddle.

Broke

I bought this back at the end of February and the top has already separated from the paddle. Now I can no longer play with it. I love the lightness of this paddle but paying $90 for it to only last a month with twice a week play.

Good Grip!

I like the handle, it’s a good size for someone with small hands. The paddle itself is a little bigger than other beginner paddles I’ve used. I should have went with a matte paddle but this will do for a while.

Not Durable

I have purchased two of these paddles. The first lasted only 2 weeks and the trim separated from the edge of the paddle. I returned it for the same model, and again, the trim is now coming off the edge. I am so disappointed as I love the lighter weight and smaller grip. I agree with the other users, you expect a little more longevity for $90.
