Pretty good for a cheap paddle
I've found this paddle just fine for my purposes (2-4 hour trips on flat water). It seems quite sturdy, and light for the price. However, when the paddle arrived, the button needed to keep the paddle together was too wide to fit through the hole in the shaft. Once I shaved some plastic off the hole, it works fine, but it would have been nice if it were perfect out of the box.
Pros & Cons
Pros:
Sturdy

Shaft fit was off
