We gather reviews from reputable pickleball content creators, each providing:
• A sentiment based on their review: Highly Recommended, Worth Trying, Mixed Feelings, Not Recommended
• A breakdown of pros and cons
• A summary of their thoughts
• Links to their reviews
This allows players to compare multiple expert perspectives in one place before making a decision.
If you’re an experienced paddle reviewer with a track record of detailed, high-quality reviews, we’d love to feature your insights. Contact us with links to your past reviews, and we’ll see if it’s a good fit for the site.This allows players to compare multiple expert perspectives in one place before making a decision.
We curate reviews from respected pickleball reviewers who regularly test paddles and share their findings online. We only include reviewers who do not accept payment in exchange for reviews, conduct independent testing, and have built a reputation for accuracy, ethical standards, and insightful analysis.
Numbers can be misleading—one reviewer’s 8/10 might mean something completely different from another’s. Instead, we use tiered recommendations to highlight whether a paddle is widely praised, divisive, or best avoided.
