Can't go wrong! Sep 22, 2005 By J. Wandurraga "Table Tennis Fanatic"
All the skepticism I had about the true quality of this product went out the window very shortly after unwrapping it. The eveness of the bounce, and smooth overall feel of these balls leave similar products by Stiga in the dust. It is very rare to find a product that actually performs as advertised. I really think that I got what I paid for, and then some!

durable Feb 06, 2006 By fatmav
Perhaps all ITTF approved 3-star balls are the "same" if you use a new ball every match. But in my experience, Butterfly balls last a whole lot longer than others. Get a pack and try it for yourself.

How Durable ? Nov 12, 2006 By Sajid M. Mohammed
I bought 6 pack Butterfly 3-star balls. I used one of them and it had no uneven bounce and had a clean finish. I play TT with a group of guys who love to smash this ball as hard as they can. It lasted not more than 15 games (21 point game) or 3 days. I do know that some cheaper ones can last longer but they do have uneven bounce.

I hope my review is some sort of benchmark to measure the durability.

Very good quality, long lasting TT balls!! Jun 15, 2006 By Sivakumar Murugesan "DYI Fan"
Butterfly makes very good TT balls. These balls are very strong and last for a long time.

One of the best TT balls Aug 02, 2009 By TucsonShopper
Excellent top quality ball (a best buy). I like these better than Joola Super 3-Star (very poor durability), Donic 3-Star Balls, and Stiga T0641 3-Star Table Tennis Balls, 6-Pack (Orange) (best of these three) being faster and more durable (and durability has become a big issue today). But, as tomthree points out - these are not as good as the even faster and more durable Nittaku Premium 3-Star Balls (the standard for players at my local tournaments). Note: TSP (hard to find anywhere), DHS Athens, and Double Fish 3-star balls (not currently available at Amazon) are also very good. Now, the Butterfly is a fairly soft ball... softer than the all of the others mentioned (and so, they don't bounce quite as well but they do allow for greater control). However, again as tomthree points out, the butterfly's are cheaper with the Nittaku Premium 6-pack normally going for $13.50 (plus shipping). Your level of play (and budget) as well as bounce and control preference will determine whether Stiga, Butterfly, or Nittaku Premiums (the harder to find TSP, DHS, and Double Fish not withstanding) are best for you; I'm currently a Butterfly player.
