I am an intermediate to advanced player and demoed many rackets before buying. I am 40 y. o. and have played for 25 years. I bought it for $50 in Thailand and for the price and the feel, I had to buy it. I prefer rackets that don't have too much power because I have a relatively big back-swing (old school, I know). It plays very well, especially in doubles net play. I can rely on this racket. It is light and it has great control. The thing is that even if other rackets that I demoed had the same price or even lower price (impossible), I would have still bought this racket. I usually buy Prince rackets, but they were more expensive. I usually cannot handle the newer, more powerful rackets (that take shorter swings). Now it can be that the stringing is affecting the power of this racket. I don't know how much tension or what type of strings they put in this, so this review is not by anby means perfect since I could not compare and contrast!
