Quick Start Foam Balls receive mixed reviews with strong appeal for beginners and kids but significant drawbacks for serious players. Reviewers praise their ease of hitting, suitability for young players, and performance on certain court surfaces, but criticize excessive bounce, oversized dimensions, visual design issues, and chemical odor that limit their utility for standard pickleball play.

Quick Start Practice balls: Used to hit off my basement wall and at first disappointed about the rebound due to foam... but as I kept going found how these made me concentrate on keeping the ball over the tape line on the wall.... wow... these were forcing me to work on consistent dinking!!! try e'm solo and with no court time!!!

Good balls for sports court: My sports court gives inconsistent bounces with real pickleballs (plastic ball slides on the plastic court). These work great on the court. I do wish they were the same size as an official ball. They are somewhat bigger.

Foam Balls: They are only okay - they have a heavy petroleum smell

Quick Start Foam Balls: Bounces too much and balls are too big. It's also hard to watch the ball because the spinning colors give you vertigo. Not a good purchase!

Great for Kids: We've been introducing pickleball to kids from the local Boy's and Girl's Club. Ages 6-10, most all of them preferred this ball over the hard plastic. A little bigger and eaiser to hit.
