What players say
Tennis Warehouse customers who strung this 16L/1.23 hexagonal co-poly report strong durability and tension hold, with good spin and control for a budget string. A few found it too stiff for their arm, and the hex edges blunt out after roughly 8-10 hours, which dulls the spin bite.
Best for
- Advanced players who generate their own pace
- Players wanting a durable, control-oriented poly
- Players chasing spin from a textured string
- Value-focused stringers (reel pricing)
Pros
- Holds tension well over long sessions, per multiple customer reviews
- Durable for a thin gauge, with some players reporting 20+ hours per set
- Good spin and control noted by several reviewers
- Priced well for a reel, especially relative to tension/durability delivered
Cons
- Feels stiff to some players, with at least one report of wrist soreness after two hours
- Hex edges blunt after about 8-10 hours, reducing spin bite
- Feel is limited, which reviewers note is typical for a stiff poly
- Low power, so it may not suit players who can't generate their own pace
