My previous Dunlop racquet, a Jonathon Power Hot Melt, lasted several years. It cracked about two weeks ago, so I bought the Dunlop Aerogel GT as a replacement. While playing tonight (my third time with the new racquet) I hit a boast in the back corner. I followed through into the wall. Though the follow through was not particularly forceful, the racquet cracked all the way through. I had read on other reviews that this racquet was not particularly sturdy, now I believe them. I'm hoping I can get my money back, otherwise this was $100 down the drain.

EDIT: I've been told by the vendor where I purchased the racquet (paragon in NYC) that Dunlop has agreed to replace my racquet. But I have yet to receive the new one.

EDIT (7/15/11): Finally got the new one back from Dunlop.

This is a very good racquet, it combines very good power and balance, not for amateurs

It's my first dunlop racquet, and took a time to get used to it. My old prince triple threat was heavier and the head was bigger than this one. The little head gave me some trouble at the begining failing shots, but within a month get used to it and gave me more control. If I have to choose between control and power, I prefer control; and this racquet fits for my game.

The frame feels very solid.

Anyway I'm looking forward to try a dunlop aerogel with a bigger head when I can and see how it works.
