I was a bit skeptical about spending more on a fly-swatter, but the thermoplastic resin feels surprisingly solid and well-balanced in the hand. It’s actually made the chore of dealing with a few flies feel a little less annoying.

The grey resin handle has a nice matte feel and doesn't slip even when my hands are damp from washing dishes. Philippe Starck actually made swatting flies look good on the counter.

It's almost too pretty to use, but the grey resin handle feels solid and the swatter still does its job. Swatting flies feels less gross when the tool looks like a modern sculpture sitting on the table.
