    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as a versatile rubber for beginners to intermediate players, characterized by excellent control and good ball retention. However, advanced players point out insufficient power and spin quantity.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Superior control performance, easy to master table techniques
    • Clear ball gripping sensation ideal for fundamental skill learning
    • Excellent value with affordable price and good durability
    • Speed and spin tend to fall short of expectations
    • Particularly recommended as a second rubber and back rubber
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe rubber grips the ball well so anyone can improve at table tennis. It's affordable with good durability, making it the best match for those wanting to level up fundamental techniques.
    ▽ CriticalThe high control comes at a cost of insufficient speed and spin. When hitting harder, it behaves like a short pimple rubber with overly linear trajectory.

      Shoshinsha Kozou (Experience: 4〜5 years) Light and stable tension rubber

      Reviews by user

      It doesn't have any standout performance, but it's a rubber with no quirks and no real weaknesses. It's very stable, and because it's a bit too well-behaved, the ball doesn't fly around wildly, so it's easy for your opponent to return too, I think. It's a light tension rubber that's perfect for beginners as a step up from high-bounce rubber. I also think it's a great rubber that's very stable for intermediate players and on the backhand side of a Chinese penhold grip. There are competing rubbers like Vega, Rygan, and GTT, but I think Factive is the crowd-pleaser that never really fails you.
      It has good grip on the ball, so lifting backspin is very easy. The sponge also produces speed easily, so it should work up to intermediate level. Chops also come in with a sharp, low trajectory. The short game is easy too, so I feel it's perfect for building your technique. Once Factive starts to feel like it's not enough, step up to Fastarc G1.

      I thought this was an easy-to-use rubber with no techniques that felt awkward.
      The short game is especially easy with it.
      It's cheap and performs decently well, so I'd recommend it.

      The store clerk recommended it to me, and it turned out to be really good! I can control my serves well with it too!

      ttsys (Experience: 4〜5 years) Nice!

      Reviews by user

      I got this from winning a raffle.
      I didn't expect much, but my previous rubber had reached the end of its life, so I put this one on, and it turned out really good! The short game (flicks, stops, pushes, etc.) was easy to play, and on top of that, it was also a really easy rubber to use for countering the opponent's drives!

      The balance of speed, spin, and control is really good, so I'd recommend it for people aiming to step up their game.

      Himajin (Experience: Less than a year) Better used on the backhand

      Reviews by user

      Currently using thick on both sides.
      It's really great on the backhand.
      Blocks, pushes, and chiquita all go in fine. Lifting backspin balls is hard, but it's manageable.
      When used on the forehand, I can't lift backspin balls at all. If you're using this as a second rubber, I think you'd improve faster with Vega instead. It's not bad, but I don't think I can really recommend it.
