Rockwell
Pros: Best bat my son has ever had . It is balanced like a real MLB bat it has major POP and the sound is like no other bat out there (sounds like the Liberty Bell ) .
Cons: Take about 400-500 contact swings to get it Blasting .
Tomtom
Pros: Very balanced bat, just like the Combat B1. Amazing pop, it sounds incredible. Bought the 30/19 for my 10yr old son. Love that he could use it in cold weather. I would highly recommend this bat for anyone looking for a hybrid bat. The vibration dampening is awesome, no sting at all after hitting 100+ balls.
Cons: Wish it came in a -10
5'sdad
Pros: Incredibly balanced. Been using end-loaded Demarini bats since shattering 2 Combats with no assistance from that manufacturer. So much more control that it is ridiculous. Son loves it.
Cons: Not quite as forgiving as full composite. Came with a small paint chip.
DR
Pros: Average bat at best! The composite handle adds value to the hitter swing (Speed and Acceleration).
Cons: The manfacturing team at Marucci should have made this bat "Marucci Black" in a -10. This bat is only available in the drop -11 for little league use.
g force
Pros: it is the same thing as the CF5 but alot cheaper.
Cons:
teeter2
Pros: very well balanced bat feels lighter then it weighs
Cons: none
mchogs
Pros: None
Cons: Bat has a small sweet spot, ball sounds dead coming off this bat, has no pop. For the cost this bat it is a below average.
Jrod
Pros: very good bat. lots of pop sends the ball far.
Cons: paint chips easy
chavabt
Pros: Bat is awesome, my son has the Easton S2 which just is too light at a -13 for kids with fast hands, but don't have the power for the Easton XL series. This bat is so balanced my son actually commented that the bat seems lighted (18 oz Black vs. 16 oz S2). It took some getting used to and hit initially hit drop in base hits until it was broken in. Now the pop is insane, jumped on a fast ball accross the plate for a stand up tripled! Once broken in 200-300 hits, wow the ball jumps!
Cons: Paint chips very easy....
Dissatisfied Dad
Pros: Quality made bat with good balance and feel. Good beginner youth bat but not for more advanced youth.
Cons: The barrel of the bat and sweetspot is much smaller than expected. Good youth bat but wouldnt reccommend for bigger kids. Too small.

Mark123
Pros: Solid construction. Well balanced. Anti-vibration handle works well on end of barrel hits. Bat will not sting unless you hit the ball near the seam between the alloy barrel and the composite handle. Nice pop on balls hit within 3 inches of the sweet spot.
Cons: Distinctive "ping" of an alloy bat.
TKAUF
Pros: Amazing deal first of all, also, it has a great "ding" sound unlike many other bats. I used it off a tee in 40 degree weather and no shock at all.
Cons: None whatsoever

Cons: none
Nick the Stick
Pros: Got the bat for my son's 9th birthday and he loves it. Feels very balanced for a 28/17, he was using a 28/16 DeMarini and his bat speed has stayed exactly the same speed with the 17 oz. with better pop off the barrel.
Cons: None! Great service from JustBats.com and great product.
coach steve
Pros: Balanced with a lot of pop. The ball jumps off the bat. Nice composite handle with good grip. Excellent deal!

sandman
Pros: The marucci black is a great bat it has really good pop, I got this for myself when i was 10 it is a 31-20 and it has no sting after you have been hitting for a long time.it is a really good contact hitting bat. i would recomend this bat for anyone who is looking to buy this bat. It seems like it should be more money than 90 dollars because it is such a good bat. It has no brakinging in time at all, i was really impressed when i first hit with it.
Cons: great bat deffinatley no cons at all.
Gabey
Pros: None.
Cons: Does not have a good barrel.

Pros: Good pop
Cons: Paint chips easy, Very stange sound when dropped
BAB
Pros: Used for 7 year old this spring season....he is 4'2" and weighs 46 lbs. He is tall and skinny, excellent contact hitter with control. He uses the 29-18 which is a bit large for him but handles the weight fine because of the even weight distribution and actually hit a few hard line drives up the middle this season. This is a fast and powerful bat even for smaller players that have a bit more experience and control.
Cons: Only complaint is that it seems that the sweet spot is smaller. Players with better control and hand-eye coordination should not have much issue - still excellent bat.
Anonymous
Pros: Love the bat, lots of pop, and solid line drives.

Cons: NONE AT ALL
coach coach
Pros: The bat is a couple of months old > Pop is nice and you will need some time to dial it in . Results are positive >>>
Cons: Grip unraveled after 2 weeks >>>> I was sent another with no problem. My son was a lefty and with over 1000 swings in the dial in period it unraveled.
coach coach coach
Pros: Three months with the 31/20 . my son is 11 with over 1500 swings bat is still poping the ball . The grip was replaced after 2 weeks (lefty issue). The sweet spot is tight you will need more cage time to keep the touch going.
Cons: sweet spot tight >>> need more cage time to keep the bat poping ,,,
Made a Good Choice Mark parent
Pros: My son has gone 5 for 5 with the bat with 3 doubles, in a row. Good pop, good feel. Builds more confidence in my son's hitting.
Cons: None at this time!
Nice Bat For the Price Mitch parent
Pros: Good value for a quality bat. Balanced swing and nice pop for a light bat.
Cons: Sweet spot on the smaller side to keep it light. Not a very forgiving bat if you miss the small barrel.
sandman34 jonah sande player
Pros: got a great feel hits great, hit my first homer with it when i was 10 doesn't sting at all. I think it's a great bat and if you want it you should buy it
Cons: doesn't hit very far.
sandman34 Jonah Sande player
Pros: Very balanced bat like the Easton s series got the 31/20 but it feels lighter than it weighs. fantastic contact hitting bat. You can use it in colder weather it seems like but I wouldn't do that. I like that it doesn't sting after I hit it, feels like you've hit in the sweet spot every time. Very nice two piece bat, got a long and skinny barrel. Thumbs up.
Cons: doesn't hit very far.
good bat baseball boy parent
Pros: Great pop good feeling in the hands and my son hit a walkoff 3run homerun in a championship game

Pros: Both bats were the best thing my parents ever bought me. both have great balance.
Cons: with the black 1, the nob can break off in cold whether.
Broken Bat Jay parent
Pros: Has a nice sound.
Cons: Barrel is shorter than other bats. Less than a year use and the bottom end knob broke off during batting practice in the cages. Bought a composite Easton bat instead to replace and my son is hitting so much better.
good bat baseball mainiac player
Pros: really good pop no vibration my first game i had a triple
Cons: long time to break in bat tape doesn't stay on very well
Great Bat Brian coach
Pros: This bat was purchased for my 9 year old son for use in Little League and competitive travel league. Not only did he love it, but so did his team. It was the bat of choice for at least three of them and got tons of use. Good pop and very well balanced.
Cons: Paint will take a beating, but does not impact quality. Does have vibration on mis-hit balls.
awesome Jonah S player
Pros: Great pop doesn't sting when its hit on the composite handle where there's no sweet spot. The taping that comes with the bat is very grippy if you use batting glove your hands just about stick to the bat. When you hit the ball on the composite handle you'[ll still have the ability to hit it over the 2B or SS's head.
Cons: Not the most durable bat. ...
Da bat sande sir player
Pros: Very balanced with amazing pop and sounds great when hit on the sweet spot, doesn't sting when it's hit on the composite handle. It really feels lighter than it is and has a very smooth swing.!!!!!!!!!!
Cons: not very durable. ...
murucci black bob player
Pros: It hit well for about 10000 swings
Cons: At 10000 the knob came off!
Quality Issues JR coach
Pros: looks shiny.
Cons: knob fell off after a couple months use by my son. carbon fibers now falling out. Manufacturer return / warranty process long. When I asked why so long / how often does this happens Marucci rep claimed they see this all the time...
Black 2 Fred Jackmovich player
Pros: Nice balanced bat my son likes it and that is what matters. I think there are other bats with more pop but will see after it gets broken in. My son has hit a lot more hard line drives and I don't know if its mind over matter due to the fact he really likes the bat. I do like the larger sweet spot ( bigger than the Demarini c6 he has ). Will wait to see if it is durable.
Cons: None yet.
