That really depends on what you are looking for, but one of the best current racket companies right now is Li-Ning which actually sponsors the whole Chinese National Team and then there's Wilson and Yonex rackets such as the K-Factors for Wilson.
It is a racket specifically made for badminton. They have a low weight ranging from 70-95 grams (2-3.5 ounces). They are made of a range of reenforced plastic to solid steel.

The strings are the with of about .67 mm and they have the tension of 80-160 newtons. They are usually low for regular players and higher for professionals.The thing you hit the shuttlecock with.
