These paddles are new but apparently got kicked off first quality at production because of blurred graphics or other cosmetic only flaws. Huge savings on all models compared to full price of same models and Free Shipping over $99.00

Tennis player and current pickleball player here. I started with the Selkirk pro air invikta. But that's like gen 1 technology. If you have a long stroke, stay away from power paddles such as the gearbox pro power, joola gen 3. Paddle of the year for 2023 was the double black diamond from six zero and I absolutely loved the control and power on that paddle. If paddles have options such as 14mm and 16mm, it just means one is geared more towards control (16mm) and the other is more thin thus allowing for more pop (14mm).
If you're new and still experimenting, the best budget paddles out there are the vatic pro, and Friday paddles. The quality and performance meet today's play with a cheap pricing point to match.
Thumbs up for pickleball deals! Looks like some good deals too. Thanks OP!

Friday paddles 2 for $99. One of the best paddles for the money unless you are getting something from the China online stores.

Agree with 16mm recommendation. A longer handle (5 1/2" or so) for 2HBH. Thermoforming & foam injected edges do make for livelier paddle faces. Elongated vs. more square paddles are more of a personal preference. I find paddles are too light off the shelf, so I add tungsten tape to adjust (may slow down handspeed at first). I also use tennis overgrips since handles are too small.

Just picked up two $39.99 amazon paddles that were recommended for the price: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C7RHM...tails&th=1. Kind of bummed but that's alright.

If I was confident that I would end up playing enough I might be interested in one of the Paddletek Waves.

Paddles are a very personal preference, there is no best for everyone.

If you're just starting out I would recommend looking into local tennis/pickleball stores and see if they have a demo program.
If not they have on line stores that do the same.
They are very similar to tennis and racquetball demo programs.

Much better way to find your game style and preference in paddles without the big investment.
Good paddles are not cheap.
