| If you want to impress others, have more money than you know what to do with, or are skilled enough that you know for a fact that you will play better with a racquet that has specific characteristics that this one lacks, buy another racquet. If you just want a decent racquet that reliably does what a raquet should do, you don't need to pay more than this. Because of advances in technology, this plays better than most of the racquets that were available, regardless of price, ten years ago, so if you're not happy with your game, you won't be able to blame this racquet. |
Great beginner racquet

| I started taking tennis classes at my community college a couple weeks ago. I picked up this racquet because it was cheap and light with a big head. It has performed very well and my game is good enough to play with some of the more experienced players that have $200+ racquets. |

| I bought this recently and already I think this racquet is great. The main reason I bought this is because this is light and oversized, great for beginners like me (plus this racquet isn't so expensive). But I think this racquet is good any level player. Highly recommend it!! |

| Im a begginer playing tennis and I selected this racquet based on the reviews and it was and excellent choice, is has great quality materials. The only advice that I can give you is to be carefull when selecting the grip size, an incorrect choice can affect your gaming a lot, tipe ''measuring grip size'' in google and measure your size. |
Good buy for the money

| Bought 2 of these for my husband & I to play, more for the fun and fitness than for the competitive sport. They are perfect for our needs and I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a solid, comfortable, lightweight tennis racket. This racket may not meet the needs of a serious player. |
Wilson Impact Tennis Racket (4 3/8, Grey/Black)

| I am a beginner tennis player and didn't know what to look for in a racket. I purchased the Wilson Impact Tennis Racket and I have to say that I am very pleased with it. It is very lightweight and easy to swing. The head of the racket is a little wider than most which makes it easier to hit the ball. I would definitely recommend this to someone who doesn't want to spend too much but still wants a nice product. |
Great Racquet, Great Price

| I bought this at Wal-Mart today for $16 and this my first real tennis raquet (before I was playing with a badmitten raquet!) I am very satified with it. It's lightweight, big head, and also has soft shock absorbers which is really nice, not to mention a great deal! As being a person who hasn't played on a real tennis court yet, I am quite hapy with it. |
Great to learn

| Works good enough to improve my game... I worned out 2 of them this season but for the price it is a great racket. |
Good racquet for cheap price

| After years of playing casual tennis with yard sale racquets, I decided to buy "real" ones. I expected to pay up to $100 for a metal one, but was pleasantly surprised to find these for about $18. Works fine for me! |
Very good raquet

| Extremely good racquet for starters. Have been playing with this for a few months now and it is really good and light weight and for the price range it is just fantastic |
I LOVE IT!

| i bought this from amazon for only $15. Perfect racket for its price. This is my very first racket, and I have been using it for about a month. it feels sturdy in your hand and bounces the ball well. If you are a beginner feeling reluctant to investigate more than $50 on a racket, then this might be your choice. |
Great for beginner

| This racket is great for a beginner. Size and weight is good if you are just starting out. Can't beat the price. I love that it comes with a zipped cover. Very happy with my purchase. |
Does it all

| Reviewer: romojap, |
| Great tennis racquet. I agree with the review that said it's better than anything available at any price point years ago. Before playing again this week, the last time I played was 4 years ago, and my $100 racquet didn't touch this. Heck, my brother's $150 racquet still doesn't touch this. You name it... regular volleys, power shots, topspins, slices, I had no problem getting back into the hang of things with this racquet. Unless you are a club pro, you will not need more control than this. Work on improving your skills, then think about getting a better racquet. I haven't played on it long enough to comment on its durability... some negative reviews on here are disappointed with the quality of the grip. In my opinion, for a racquet this good at this price point, get an overgrip and call it a day. |
Great Racket and Great Value

I am an experienced beginner, and found this racket pretty much matched my playing skill. I tried a Prince that is priced 3X this racket and could not really discern any major functional difference. The Prince delivered slightly less shock to the hand, but that might just be perception or difference in string tension.
Only downside for this racket was that by the end of the season I had to add a non-slip grip because the original grip had become a little too slippery.
For a beginner like me, this racket is outstanding value. I'd buy another. |
Awesome racket

| I was getting back into the game when I bought this racket. I had been using a friend's Prince speedport I think, but this racket has been better. I have lots of power so it helps me with control, but it lets me fire the cannon when I serve (and it's in). I also have a prince CTS lightning, but the impact is the better racket for me. It has also continued to work well as I have improved. Excellent racket for a beginner to low intermediate; and you can't beat the price. |

| The tennis racket looks to be of high quality. This is a gift so has not been used as this date. The product came in the time frame listed and in good condition. Am hoping it will make the recipient happy too. |
It's a good racket!

I have used a few different racquets lately, and I honestly couldn't tell you the difference between this $17 one with it's Volcanic Frame Technology and the $50 NANO CARBON racquets with the molecular matrix of high modulus graphite fibers and Nano-sized Silicon Dioxide crystals. I think VFT is very underrated in the marketplace. If you're looking for good bang for your buck I would not overlook this one. It comes in red, too, which was what I was actually looking for. (The VFT was sort of a bonus, in my eyes!)
EDIT - if I could change the star rating, I would change it to a 3. It's okay for a beginner's racquet. I have discovered much better ones since. |
It does the trick

| Its a $20 racquet. It feels good in the hand, isn't too heavy, hits a ball fine, and feels solid. For $20ish, its all you could want for a beginners racquet. If you play super competative tennis, spend more on something else, but if you don't know the difference, this will do the trick. |
