I've been playing tennis since 10 and after 40 years, I like middle of the road racquets such as the Wilson Ultra 100 and Babolet Pure Drive. I own both of them and with slight mods they play somewhat similar. As others mentioned the Slickdeal is going to a local tennis shop and demoing some rackets first, that way you get a racquet you will keep for a long time.
FYI- there are other/better racquets on sale at TW for similar prices:
Yonex eZone- last year's model $179- much more friendly all around racquet
Wilson Ultra 100 V2 older model - $159 one of the best selling raquets 7 years ago
and the best selling racquet in the world:
Babolet Pure Drive 100 , the 2018 model is $179
but I would go to a local tennis shop and demo some to see which one fits your style, Tennis is half psychological so you would p[lay better if you are comfortable with your racquet.

Btw, if you're local shop don't have these models to demo, TW has a demo program where you can select up to 4 racquets to try for a week for $20. And if you buy any racquet, I believe the $20 go towards the purchase. It's been years since I use their demo program so I'm not up to date on their policy but you can click on the demo program and it will explain everything or you can call and inquire about it. Hope this helps someone.

RHS Radical is an insanely quick racquet.Speed Mp moves well for it size.
When metal rackets first came out in 1980s, the Prince Classic was a great racket.
I'm sure the ones at Walmart have similar basic characteristics. Aluminum, light.
Intuitive Tennis did a comparison and he recommended the $15 Walmart racket.
There's also a YT video of a rec player pulling a Classic or and playing really well with it.
Also, is this MP compare to Babolat pure drive?
Should I get MP unstrung ?
Ezone 98 2022 is the same as 2021 deep blue on both 98 and 98 Tour options. The only difference is the paint job.

Holds tension longer, so it'll be cheaper.
Literally.
I stopped playing for 16 years, and when I started again, the multi strings in my rackets were still about 3-4 pounds within what I had string them at. Before I restrung, I played a little with them, and they felt good.
Today, I use a hybrid setup with poly mains and multi crosses. I string my own, so the cost is like $5 for me. Unless you string yourself, at $40+ a job, using poly is going to be expensive because tension is lost quickly. I'm currently an intermediate player looking to get back to 4.5-5.0 level (probably never going to happen due to age, knees, and shoulder), and I practice/exercise two-three times a week rotating 5 rackets each time (50-60 balls per racket), and I restring all of them monthly. If I go too long, when I play in groups, my balls sail, so it is definitely noticeable. I use Alu Power Rough or Tourna Silver as my mains with synthetic gut as my crosses. Since I do my own stringing, I buy reels and limit waste to maximize the number of jobs that I can do.

I like a hybrid setup with 17g or 18g kevlar mains and syn-gut crosses. The thin kevlar really bites into the ball and helps modulate the power of an oversize racket. It also lasts longer since I use a lot of spin and break strings frequently.
