Sports reviews of Butterfly 8256 Seemiller Table Tennis Racket

Customer Review: Best Precision Paddle I've Ever Tried
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I've always loved ping pong and when I started a new job that conveniently had a ping pong table in the break room, I knew I had to get a new paddle. I've been playing on and off for years but I was getting schooled like a little girl. The paddles that were laying around were just cheapy and no good - no spin, power, or control.

At first I tried Stiga Titanium (also from Amazon) but it was a total disappointment. It has 0 control and the balls were flying off the table almost every time. I had a few people try it and they all agreed it was a really weird paddle.

Then I decided to give my search another try and get the Butterfly Seemiller. And did it deliver!

This is the best paddle I've ever owned, hands down. I was able to win playing against people I'd never won with before. The Seemiller has incredible control, decent spin, and OK power. It's definitely not the fastest paddle but it's exactly what I wanted. It is also very light - much lighter than any other one I've held.

I can return almost any serve now - it neutralizes spins and respins them all over. The ball is hitting the table edges instead of flying off a lot more often.

I'm in love. This paddle has seriously revitalized my affection for ping pong. Get it and you won't regret it, I guarantee. Unfortunately, it costs $50 while other reviewers managed to get it for as low as $30ish. Well, even at $50 it's well worth it.

About Butterfly

Hikosuke Tamasu founded Tamasu Co., Ltd. in the small town of Yanai City, Japan in 1950. This was the beginning of a company career which is almost unique in table tennis. A renowned international for Japan, Tamasu fulfilled his dream of a lifetime when he made his hobby his profession. At that time, he could hardly imagine that he would make Butterfly the leading brand worldwide. Creativity, durability, and a profound technical knowledge meant success. 0ver and over again he looked for new possibilities in order to optimize techniques by innovative playing material. Tamasu realized that each player is different and has strengths and weaknesses. By offering individual playing material Tamasu wanted to help players right from the beginning to emphasize their individuality. Since 1983 Butterfly has its own training and research center in Tokyo. Highly qualified scientists co-operate with world class players and coaches for the development of rubber and blade technology. Butterfly's rubbers and blades are used by more than half of the participants at World and European Championships.
