Awesome Customer Support
Issue with the first stick that arrived, the blade was very lose on the shaft. I contacted Franklin and they sent a brand new one 3 days later. Awesome customer support!

Looks can be deceiving...
Mine broke 2 games in when I played floor hockey. Fortunately I was still within the return policy. I received another one, but it is off-season now, but I doubt this stick will last too many games, but it is relatively cheap and looks stylish. If you are going to buy it, DO NOT throw away the box for 30 days should you decide to return it.

    It was a perfect gift for my Grandson's birthday!
    Item was exactly as listed. It arrived well before it was scheduled to.

    Great value for the price but quick wear is an issue
    Pre-pandemic I played ice hockey 2-3x per week in beer leagues and when my league shut down in mid-March 2020 I picked up some inline skates, the Green Biscuit and this stick to keep my skills sharp and work on my stick handling. The stick is a little heavier than my ice hockey sticks (TRUE XC BLACK, INT, 58 Flex) which I don’t mind. Flex and curve is pretty comparable to my ice hockey sticks and the cost was great. However, you get what you pay for. The item arrived May 10 and by today, about 2 weeks later, I’m looking to replace the blade bc it’s worn down by about 1/3 from use. I’m on my wheels 45-90 mins skating at a healthy speed while stick handling 5x per week. The wear is likely due to the fact I’m on inline skates so the blade drags more on the asphalt than if your running in sneakers. That being said I’d recommend this stick based on the cost but be warned the blade may wear down relatively quickly. The wear issue is the only thing from rating 5 stars.

    He loves playing with it and says that is have good action. It seems sturdy
    We bought this stick as a Christmas present for our son. He loves playing with it and says that is have good action. It seems sturdy. The only concern he had is that the blade is not "screwed" into the shaft. It is difficult to examine the constructon due to the decal wrapping, but I suspect it has a shank that is fitted into the shaft and than secured through processing. It looks like it will probably hold up to normal wear and tear. Overall nice quality for the price.

    FUN
    Good quality street hockey stick from Franklin Sports that can take a beating. The 40" size is good for kids, but not tall kids. NHL logo. The price is extremely reasonable. Will last a while. We would recommend.

    A mild recommend for those 12 years of age and under, better if you can find an organized team to get started with.
    I never really played street hockey when I was younger, but in my 20s I started playing with a family of boys that were really into most sports. They got permission from a local church that has a fair sized parking area on the corner across the street from the church building. The church really liked us I think because we played mostly in the late fall and into the winter. Their benefit was that we came in Saturday's early, and descended upon the area with a dozen or more boys. With our snow shovels in hand we cleared the parking lot right down to the pavement. The group I played with was so into it, they made full sized hockey goals with two by fours, and laminated chicken wire. They didn't live too far from the lot, so they carried them there every Saturday. They even made pads and equipment to protect the goalie and played a regulation type game as much as possible. I played defense mostly and had a reputation for breaking blades, mostly the blades you bought were completely wooden except the ends were often coated an laminated. By the end of the season, most of the wooden blades were already gone, and we replaced them with plastic blades that had a sleeve that fit over the wooden shaft. My blade had no arc, and was thick wood, sharpened at the bottom (dirty I know) make for a stick check that would cut your blade off. I think I used to keep notches on the stick as to how many I got. The replacements were a soft plastic that wouldn't break unless you hit it down too hard and broke the sleeves. A couple of people fashioned their blades with heat to be like banana blades and could pick up and wing a street hockey ball a long way in the air with a wrist shot over a typical slap shot. The ones who could control it were highly accurate, so on defense you had to get in front of them quick. The only weakness was it took a second or two longer to set this kind of shot up. These 40" sticks are fairly short for the older set, but not a bad start for pre-teens. It's maybe not good to have something you can't control as well for young people starting out. As the old hockey adage goes, I don't like any sport that puts a club in the hands of an Irishman. Similarly, there will be more mistakes that happen with younger people new to the game, and unintentional hits can and will happen. A shorter stick with more control makes sense. These sticks seem pretty well made, laminated wood shaft coated by about a 1/16" vinyl wrap with the Phantom name, and some other graphics along with the NHL and Franklin logos. This left handed one had a not full bond at the blade seam, so I could see the wood through a small crack. The lack of length will contribute to the durability. I'm not sure the ABS plastic blade a little harder and more brittle in cold weather than the softer, thicker replacements we used to replace the broken wood blades. It looks to be fine in warmer weather, I slammed it on my concrete porch a dozen times, and it showed no signs of cracking. I would expect at some point it may crack at the joint where the blade is connected, only because, at this stress point the plastic seems thin. Depends how hard the kids play, when we played in our 20's, I'd have collected one or more of these blades a weekend for my collection. Comfort is nice as if you do a hard slapper without padded gloves you can feel it with a hard wooden stick, but the vinyl takes up a lot of the shock from taking that kind of shot. Even for younger folk, I recommend a jock and cup for most players. I played for four years without needing a cup, but I invited a friend to play once who played ice hockey to join us. Ten minutes into the game he go one right in the center pocket, that was the last time he played with us. I can recommend this, but only to those under 12 years, and if they've already played much consider going with a longer stick anyway. You should also consider that it won't get most use unless there's a middle school with a team, a police athletic league, or a church league to play on. It was rare for a neighborhood group to form like ours, and when we were younger we mostly played baseball or football or basketball. Plus you should get the protective gloves, helmets and other pads for playing street hockey, pavement hurts more than ice if you slide on it. The ball is a bit less dangerous than the puck, but there are still some needs for protection.

    A+ Product!
    My 7 year old nephew absolutely loves this stick! Never thought he liked hockey until this thing came in the mail! The stick seems to be made very well and has held up to him beating it around for a few days now!

    It's just OK...
    I wasn't expecting much for this low a price, however I did not like how the blade arrived loose and "clicks" as I try to stick handle with it. Stick handling back and forth can hear and feel the blade clicking as it does not fit the shaft tightly. Trying to heat it up with a heat gun didn't help, so I just deal with it. Plastic blade is firm though and does not flex as much as other brand plastic blades.
