10 reviewers weighted by source trust
The consensus
What reviewers found
Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.
Across the reviewers we read, the Selkirk SLK paddle sets are the go-to recommendation for newcomers from an established brand. r/Pickleball (high-trust community) is full of buyers who report the Costco version 'had great control and hit really close to the expensive paddles,' with one reviewer who owns roughly 30 paddles calling it a favorite beginner set that ships with a bag and balls. The Costco listing itself (a high-trust, well-moderated retailer) positions them as high-quality entry paddles for emerging and established players.
What reviewers liked
- r/Pickleball and Costco listing agree it is an excellent value beginner set with good control
- Comes as a complete set (paddles, balls, bag) from an established brand
- Very large review base (4.6/4,700+) corroborates the positive consensus
Where it falls short
- Community reviewers say poor swing weight leaves it short on power
- Handle and grip are described as cheap for the price
- Better as a beginner/drilling paddle than tournament-level gear

The Costco listing itself (a high-trust, well-moderated retailer) positions them as high-quality entry paddles for emerging and established players.
The honest limitation, also from r/Pickleball, is power: commenters note a nice sweet spot but 'poor swing weight makes it lack power,' and describe the handle and grip as 'real cheap' for the price, useful as placeholders or drilling paddles rather than tournament gear. justpaddles.com is more positive, praising the bigger sweet spot, control and Selkirk durability.
With a 4.6 average across more than 4,700 Amazon reviews aligning with community sentiment, this is a strong, low-risk entry into a reputable brand, best understood as a control-leaning beginner set rather than a performance paddle.

The Costco version was actually pretty good as a beginner paddle. I thought they had great control and hit really close to the expensive paddles ...
I have purchased ~30 paddles and these are my favorite beginner set. I believe at my Costco, they were just $69.99 and it came with a bag and balls.
