Test Report on Table Tennis Bats from 2018 - The best table tennis bats at a glance


The listed table tennis rackets listed here are our recommendations when starting in a table tennis club, AND suitable for hobby players with ambitions. As already mentioned, the bats were compiled by TT-SHOP.COM, in cooperation with TT-SPIN.COM.

Our table tennis specialty shop and the table tennis blog are table tennis experts a hundred percent!

Each bat shown here will be mounted after your order. This is the difference between a high-quality professional table tennis bat, and low-quality complete bats (finally assembled for an immediate use) from normal, general (big) stores.

Such complete bats are manufactured in mass production and are made for hobby, fun, and occasional activities only. However, if you or your kid seek for more than just this (e.g. more ambition, success, but, of course, still fun), we truly recommend you one of the bats listed here.
