For its price, this rubber tops every chart. Its speed, spin, and overall quality is on par with some 729, or even DHS rubbers. However, this does not mean it's a must buy. Mercury has glaring problems, like gears and feeling. Overall, a very nice rubber for its price, but if you have a big budget might as well get some other rubber.

Great rubber for its price, but for only slightly more money you can get Loki Rxton rubbers which are solidly 5-star rubbers. If you're lucky you can find Rxton 3 and Rxton 5 for $5 or less on Ali Express

It really depends on the style of the player. Rxton is a much more Chinese styled rubber, like H3, whilst Mercury is more of a boosted rubber, almost like a tacky Mark V. Of course for you, a really Chinese styled player you would much prefer Rxton, but other players would prefer Mercury if their style is more speed-based.

77.5g DONIC blade + 2x Mercury II (old) = 159.9g (incl. Yinhe glue)
62.4g SANWEI blade + 2x Mercury II (new) = 152.0g (incl. German glue)

The above 2 fully assembled rackets include different glues plus edge tape, so the below numbers contain these components too:

41.2g is the average assembled weight of one installed Mercury II Soft rubber, cherry-picked light samples.
44.8g is the average assembled weight of one installed Mercury II Soft rubber, cherry-picked heavy samples.

In other words, if i had cherry-picked lighter production units, my racket would be lighter by 7.2g, this is good to know. On the flipside, heavier sheets mean that they are thicker, delivering a better performance. That's exactly why i paired my lighter blade with heavier sheets, and my heavier blade with lighter sheets. Because in the end we not only want the lightest racket but also a beautiful ALL+/OFF- performer. The thicker the sheet, the more beautiful its performance.

Yes, the Mercury II Soft is a slow rubber, with absolutely no catapult, no tensor effect but i compensate this similar to badminton, namely with a snappy fast racket movement thx to the light weight. For learners, consolidating coordination and shot variations, it's the perfect rubber, highly enjoyable.

Nobody ever claimed that this rubber one of the best club-level quality rubbers, but so many on the internets do claim that it has the highest performance-price ratio that mankind has seen

. For 3$, it's the very best rubber you could buy (best value).

Highly recommended for learners, beginners, in their club and league play.

Uncut sheet with protective film and its mini sticker , taken out of the retail packaging for weighing. Mercury 2 Soft. The weight for 1 sheet can be 57.xx g or 64.xx g, while most units will be at 60.xx g. Best advice is to keep ordering 2 units at different times of the year whenever you doht know what else to order for the 10$ min cart value alix free shipping. By now I've got a collection of 12 units ever ordered. It then makes sense to pair sheets of the same weight, i.e. 57g black 57g red vs. 64g black 64g red. And more typically 60g black 60g red. So yeah, the sponge thickness can vary by 7g, if you got only 2 units.

Playing for 6 months now and for the first time I tried a rubber that can lift the ball. So nice feeling to play with! I have tried a few different european and hybrid rubbers, but Mercury 2 in black and soft sponge seems like a perfect fit on my forehand. I can push, chop and above all top-side-spin the ball wonderfully with it. I wish it came with a thinner sponge, that way I could recommend it for every beginner regardless of age. Still - this rubber should probably be on every beginners bat!

Dont bother buying this rubber. Spend extra and go with something from DHS if you like tacky rubber or just buy a quality ESN made rubber.

I am using mine for my desktop mouse. Thanks yinhe
