I bought one for my six year old as I have had a number of Galaxy blades and currently use an LQ-2 Def + blade myself. Good quality blade paired with some 729 General rubber in 1.8mm red FH and 1.5mm Black BH. My daughter has been playing a month and is enjoying the rallies in training. A rather soft feel and very easy to generate spin. In all I put this blade combo together for £13.00 UK Pounds. A very good value for money bat for my daughter.
I purchased this one and an HRT Sunshine from an online store based in China. I got it in about two weeks time (I'm in the Phils.). Great blade to train beginners who are ready to transition to carbon blades. My son and his cousin love this. Control is near excellent, speed is just right for their skills set right now (they're both 9 with over a year playing TT) and the weight and grip are perfect for children.
I use chinese rubber on FH and BH and have found the combination to be useful for close to table to near mid-distance plays. Would like to see how it works out with faster rubber (Yasaka Mark V or something similar). But, right now the kids are enjoying the set up. Their loops are much more consistent compared to the old DHS PF4 32. Value for money is great considering it is a carbon blade.
Blade finish, though, is not at par with the smooth PF4 32. Some roughness on the edges are visible. But, I'm not complaining and neither are the kids.
