      Masayan （Experience：4-5 years） Recommended for those starting badminton

      This is a racket I'd like people who want to start badminton to buy first. It's inexpensive, so when you're thinking about buying a racket that suits you, this is the one to start with. It's rigid and reasonably durable, so you can use it safely. While using it, if you find you want a higher-end model, you can consider one then.

      Guben （Experience：6-10 years） Bought for my kid. Being slightly underwhelming is just right for beginners

      I bought this for my kid, since we've started playing badminton together.
      It might be just right for people playing indoor badminton for the first time, or for starting practice in elementary school clubs or local teams.

      Even if it gets scratched, it seems usable for training, like fixing your form.
      Above all, the price is affordable, so replacing it is easy.

    • Masashi

      Masashi （Experience：11-20 years） A very easy racket for hard hitters to handle

      This racket is made on the heavy side, so I can highly recommend it for hard hitters. I get the impression it breaks a little easily, so I strongly recommend using it as a practice racket rather than for matches. Because it's heavy, when you switch to a light racket after using it, that racket feels even lighter.

      Hiiro （Experience：6-10 years） A racket I highly recommend for practice

      I've been using this racket for practice for a long time. I don't use it for matches, but it's a racket I can highly recommend for practice. The shaft is stiff and it's heavy, so it's well worth using for hard hitters.

    • Usagi Tornado

      Usagi Tornado （Experience：6-10 years） The grip feels excellent

      It's easy to hold, and it felt natural in my hand very soon after I started using it. The stringing is dense throughout, so shots are less likely to go astray, which I see as another big advantage. The price range is relatively reasonable too, so it feels like a good deal.

    • Fresco Shinkichi

      Fresco Shinkichi （Experience：6-10 years） Comfortable grip that you get used to quickly

      It's an excellent racket that lets you grip it firmly and hit smashes with little wobble. The stringing is done carefully, string by string, and it's finely made. Durability is high too, and I feel I can use it for practice with peace of mind for a long time.

    • Muscat Ito

      Muscat Ito （Experience：6-10 years） Enables highly accurate smashes

      The grip feels good, and I find it a big advantage that smooth smashes are easy to hit. The price range is very reasonable, so it's easy to use as a practice racket. Durability has also been improved, and I like how it feels more and more familiar the more I use it.
