It's well-controlled, good for beginners. Hurricane 3 is better, but this is cheaper. - 09/11/2023 for 40+ Review by Homana Ioan-Marius

After 20-30 hours of play this will break in and will be much better.
Works very good on flexible blades but also on less flexible. Not sure if it works on very stiff or carbon blades. - 22/08/2023 Great for improving technique Review by Fritz

My technique was quite bad before (Mark V HPS) and thanks to the PF4 it got way better, meaning: Full stroke (Chinese technique), Power from the ground (use your legs and your pelvis).
Because the PF4 doesn't do anything the only way to properly accelerate the ball is via the right technique. When you finally hit balls that are as same as fast as your teammates' (who use ESN or Japanese rubber) you can bet that you have a good technique.
It ist somewhat funny that I can beat my teammates who have sometimes 50+€ rubbers, with this cheap rubber. I also used to think, that you can only play well with more expensive rubbers, but I was dead wrong!
If you want to improve buy this rubber, it is definitely worth it.
It also helps one of my students fix his bad technique (only arm, no body movement). He is now forced to use more body movement and after a few weeks I already saw some improvements.

Like all hard rubbers it allows for direct feedback which means that your stroke execution and technique has to be clean and perfect for the ball to hit your opponents side of the table.
I would recommend this rubber to beginners and those who want to improve their technique (to short movement, no body movement, no wrist acceleration during topspin-motion, etc).
It is quite slow and always requires action. You can't just hold your bat against the ball and expect it to jump to the other side of the table (like ESN or Butterfly rubbers with catapult effect).
This rubber gives you confidence to attack and attack with loops and topspin, because you simply cannot overshoot easily. You really have to put all your strength into a stroke to miss the table. Consistency. That is what you get. It doesn't matter if your Topspins are extremely quick and dangerously loaded with spin, if you can do that once...
You are automatically prepared for the game, which means: you expect the ball to come back (sounds trivial but is quite important) and really start playing instead of exchanging finishing topspins after the 3rd ball (and then be suddenly surprised when a ball is being blocked back).
Price-performance ratio is close to optimal.
I used it as a forehand rubber. Not boosted (gets softer after a few training sessions. Reminder: softer, not soft!). Glued with Revolution No°3 Glue.
Reference: half as slow as Mark V hps. - 08/05/2021 Very slow Review by Ardak

It’s for my training purpose to improve my strokes. With these sticky rubbers, I can loop and spin the plastic ball easily. Also able to do heavy underspin. It’s slightly hard And I managed to hit some extremely powerful smash and go for the kill. It’s Low cost, good sticky rubber and it’s durable. I recommend you to try it. - 17/09/2020 Best for a Novice Review by Marcos Guglielmetti

Quality - 12/01/2020 Spinny chopping rubber do it all Review by Linnea Beckman
-
Quality
The classic PF4 rubber with hard sponge and super sticky surface has been re-invented.
As a defender, it is a good choice. A lot of spin, but low. During my first rally, I was able to, with red 2.0 red, hit defensive chopping shots, that bounced two times on my opponent's side.
You can do annoying things for your opponent, and it is even good at smashing close to the table, good for serving so this is definitely a do it all rubber.
My friend plays with this on BH, a kind of pimples outplay, with spinny underspin shots, and has a Nittaku Fastarc G-1 on FH, and he is very good at that kind of play. Confuse the other side, then spin smashing with G-1 to finish the point.
