Over the last 30 years I've played with Stiga, Butterfly, Donic and Tibhar blades - all were excellent quality.
I choose a blade not based brand, but based on how it fits my style and how it feels when played with.

In my understading it seems like many people don't find joola products usefull. What could be the reason for that?

I have never also don't tried playing with rubbers or blades from joola. It is maybe because I can't take their products name serious: Mambo, tango, samba etc. But you should not judge a book by its cover.

Well many topplayers does also not play with joola, so they cant use that to marketing. Usually many europeans players are sponsered by butterfly, and they sell good, maybe because of that.

Maybe..

In the old days when I was playing against my coach and he won a point, because my loops were sucking, he says: "Maybe you should try joola topspin?"

It is a little bit more difficult, to make fun of the other companies.

Or..

i prefer the butterfly, stiga and donic blades. I'm not a fan of the tibhar blades. i've never actually played with a joola blade so i cant comment, but i've played with their rubbers and i didnt actually like them.

i think tibhar are the best. the feel is excellent on most of their blades and they feel solid without any clunky or popping noises that you sometimes get on some other blades. i don't like stiga cos of wrb handles, andro blades can be unstable and very hard feeling. up until recently i would have said butterfly was the best but not now. i was using a bastian steger off - until recently when i had a go of a tibhar samsonov alpha. no comparison. the steger felt like a piece of junk next to the tibhar blade and also had a clunky slightly hard feel in comparison. tibhar allround blades are also excellent. have read a lot of bad things from people about tibhar blades on this forum. i don't understand why.

Yes, Nittaku is an equipment sponsor of the Chinese national team.  Some Chinese national team members use Nittaku rubber on their backhands, but how many, if any, of them actually use Nittaku blades?  Wang Liqin doesn't use the Nittaku blade named after him (ANV WL).  Does anyone know if Wang Nan really plays with the Nittaku ANV WN5 blade?

I voted for Andro for its price with respect to quality. Nice technologies and features for its price. Very nice feeling.

I'd vote for Stiga if the price isn't that high. Good quality and craftmanship.

Always played with Andro blades. Quality is ok. Prices here in Germany are low. Feeling is great. Lots of products to choose, so there is a blade for nearly every type of player. So, Andro gets my vote !

I prefer Joola, they have a good variation of blades and most importent, they produce som light weight blades. I have tried Yasaka Balsa wich plays nice but I think its handle is to small. Stiga makes great quality but the ones I have tried are really heavy and therfor not to my likings.
