Rackets
Complete table tennis rackets, ready to play out of the box — no gluing and no choosing rubbers.
Two genuinely different things sit here, and it is worth knowing which you are buying. A factory pre-made bat is a single sealed product: the rubbers are part of it and are not intended to be replaced, which is what keeps it simple and affordable. A pro setup is a real blade with real rubbers glued to it — the same components sold separately, put together for you. The second can be re-rubbered indefinitely and the blade outlives several sets of sheets; the first is a bat you replace whole.
Buy for the player, not the specification sheet. A beginner bat uses a slower sponge and a more forgiving surface, which is exactly what somebody learning to keep the ball on the table needs; a faster bat makes that harder, not easier. Rackets built for competition assume a stroke that is already there. Our racket selection guide places every racket and set we carry by the player its maker says it is for, brand by brand.
If you already know which blade and rubbers you want, buy them apart instead — the blades and rubbers collections are where a custom racket starts. For a first table at home, a set that pairs bats, balls and a net is usually better value.

Beginners, ambitious recreational players and those in school sports will all find the Donic-Schildkröt Waldner 600 a versatile table tennis racket. Thanks to high-quality materials and well-thought-out technology, it offers a balanced combination of control, speed, and spin.
The Donic rubber with 1.8 mm S-30 sponge ensures precise ball feedback and enables all essential stroke techniques – from controlled returns to dynamic topspins. The rubber is ITTF-approved, providing the same material quality used in professional competitions.
The Power Light System (PLS) with transparent hollow chamber shifts the center of gravity towards the racket head, resulting in greater ball acceleration with the same energy input and a more direct playing feel. The concave handle sits comfortably and securely in the hand, keeping the racket comfortable even during longer sessions.
As part of the Waldner series, named after table tennis legend Jan-Ove Waldner, the Waldner 600 combines modern technology, playing comfort, and quality – perfect for leisure, school, and club training.
Built for ambitious recreational players and club competitors, the Waldner 800 by Donic-Schildkröt is a German-engineered racket. Its premium Tactik wood and ergonomic ERGO Handle improve control and comfort while reducing hand fatigue and pressure marks.
The ITTF-approved Alpha-Slick rubber delivers excellent grip and spin acceptance across all playing techniques. Its 2.0mm S-Plus sponge provides the power needed for aggressive strokes without sacrificing touch, making it ideal for players developing faster attacking play.
The innovative Adjustable Balance Point (ABP) technology lets you customize the racket's weight distribution in seconds. Position it top-heavy for maximum power or grip-heavy for enhanced control and spin — adapting to your playing style instantly.
Named after legendary world champion Jan-Ove Waldner, this racket delivers exceptional performance-to-price value. From ambitious beginners to competitive club players, the Waldner 800 supports skill development with materials specifically engineered to teach proper striking technique. An excellent choice for school sports and personal training.
Modern technology and a new playing feel are what the Donic-Schildkröt CarboTec 900 stands for – this is no ordinary table tennis racket. Instead of wood, it uses an innovative, one-piece carbon construction. This ensures high stability, durability, and direct ball feedback.
With 20% carbon content and the high-quality Energy rubber with a 1.9mm S-Plus sponge, the racket offers a powerful combination of power, spin, and control – ideal for ambitious recreational players and aspiring club players. The QRC (Quick Rubber Change) system allows for quick and tool-free rubber replacement – perfect for upgrading or replacing the rubber with regular play.
This keeps your racket in use longer and adapts to your playing level. A powerful yet sophisticated racket for those who want more – more technique, more speed, more precision.
For the next development step, the DONIC Zentra Carbon – Desto Next complete table tennis bat is the perfect choice: ideal for ambitious beginners and slightly advanced players who want to systematically improve their table tennis game.
It is a perfectly balanced racket that combines an allround-plus blade with spin-oriented rubbers, for an excellent mix of speed, control, and spin – perfect for the transition from allround to modern spin-based play.
More Power & Precision with the Zentra Next Carbon Blade
The 7-ply Zentra Next Carbon blade forms the heart of this racket. As a consistent evolution of the Zentra First Allround version, the carbon layer provides more speed, a larger sweet spot, and a more direct ball response – ideal for players who have already developed basic techniques and are ready for a small power upgrade.

Here, too, DONIC GO technology is used as a complete system to help players develop a modern and technically clean playing style:
• AirGO-FX Technology: porous, sensitive sponge with flexible pimples for controlled speed and fine touch
• GO2Spin Surface: grippy top sheet for strong spin, secure ball contact, and fast learning progress
• The purple sponge with integrated P2Ctrl technology stands for exceptional control and a highly secure playing feel on every shot
