Customer Reviews

One level up from the Carlton set, good value.
Background you can skip
I bought this set for myself and my kids so that we could play in the yard. I had seen the Carlton set for about 35$ in a store and did not like the quality of the rackets and the wobbly poles so I decided to buyt the slightly more expensive Salaun set, for 15 to 20 bucks more.

About this set
It did not disappoint. The set came, like most other sets, in a plastic carrying bag and was complete:
- 6 rackets of which 4 regular size and 2 short, in 4 distinct colors and made of aluminium
- Net (poly)
- Poles (steel)
- Pole fasteners (to pull the net tight)with ground spikes
- 3 nylon shuttles in a container
- carrying bag

The rackets are very decent quality, certainly one grade up from the 7$ steel throw-away stuff. These are actually nice looking, very lightweight (aluminum) and durable. The string is tight and, again, these are worth the extra money over the Carlton set I looked at.

The net was relatively easy to set up and I liked the fact it was set with steel poles. Doesn't mean it won't break if you manhandle it but certainly more durable than pvc.

By the way, I posted a bunch of pics so you can look at the parts.

Pros
- Decent quality that will make this set last
- Complete with 6 rackets and everything else you need

Cons
- Little tricky to get the net right. Best thing would be a permanent net with poles set in concrete. These poles are always a little tricky with the tension cords but once set up they should stand up through the summer if you wanted to.Setting it up a few times will make it easier though. Minus one star for that but all sets will have that flaw.

Final thoughts
He/She who finds a simpler solution to the netting gets 5 stars. Consider buying a separate net solution if you are looking for something more permanent but if that is the case I recommend spending the 200$ or so for a semi-pro setup anyways. For your run of the mill home use this is perfect. With so many rackets it is a good party set.
If you have the room in your yard or lots of wind interference consider buying a simplet Speedminton set. Tougher, faster game and loads of fund. Goes for 30$.

Excellent set. Worth the extra $
We play hard enough that we've distorted (bent) racket heads and loosened the strings of a couple of sets (not goofing around, just hitting the birdie hard). This set has taken everything we've dished out.

The handle covers show no signs of wear and are comfortable; they seem like they'll hold up over the long haul.

Very nice set and well worth the extra money. The net / poles are cheap, but the rackets are excellent and worth the price alone.

Great Badminton Set
This is a great badminton set. My 10 year old plays with the junior racket. The net was easy to set up, but is somewhat fragile- the net ripped when I was straightening the poles one day- just be careful with it.
