Bat in insanely good!!!!!!!!! Anthony player
Pros: Easily got an extra 25-30 feet Perfectly Balanced No Vibration even off the handle
Cons: Other then the price NONE
Glowstick Brett player
Pros: I will say, I usually don't necessarily like composite bats, but I had the chance to demo a 33" Quatro and gave it a shot. To me, many comps seem to be so balanced that I lose some of the feel of the barrel. So I've really only purchased alloy. Wouldn't say it's "ultra-light", but I felt the bat getting through the zone easily. Just balanced enough. Long barrel / big sweet spot and lighter weight like any quality comp. The "Quatro Collar" definitely does its job. Pitches hit a little too far toward the handle or toward the end cap won't ring your hands at all, but it gives enough feedback so that you know you didn't quite get all of it. When you square one up, you can feel the slightest amount of flex which I like a lot. Really good performance right out of the wrapper.
Cons: (Pros Cont.) - Kind of a small thing, but I like this grip. Not too thin like others. Those black shapes on the grip aren't just printed; they're cut-out from the rest of it. After some swings and my hands getting a little sweaty, I noticed that the little "holes" really helped keep my hands on the bat without slipping (I don't wear gloves). After about 100-150 swings, I didn't find a reason yet to give this one anything but a 5 out of 5.
lower-level bat J_Spauld player
Pros: The quatro has a skinny handle and allows for whip throw the zone. The inner wall does not collide with the outer wall if you have a slower/medium bat speed and arent facing 90 mph pitching. I recommend this bat for middle school and JV players. The 5150 and Velo are much more effective for Varsity and college level play. The thing that bewilders me is that i have seen a couple of UVA baseball players hit with this bat.
Cons: my bat speed is 85-90 mph and most pitchers i face will have a fastball of at least 85 mph, this combination of speed does not mesh well with my style of playing consdering that the Quatro has an inner wall and outter wall, if the two walls do not collide it simulates hitting with the old BESR bats. The walls collide basically every at-bat for me.
Great Bat!! Jacob White player
Pros: Great pop! Swings well!
Cons: NA
Great Bat Danny parent
Pros: Loved this bat right out of the wrapper. Definitely gets noticed on the field. The grip feels great in your hands. Almost no vibration when you get jammed on a pitch. Good pop off the bat and a satisfying sound.
Cons: No complaints so far with this bat. Very satisfied overall.
Rawlings Quatro BBCOR Baseball Bat Pete player
Pros: Obviously, the highlighter yellow color is a huge pro for most but that is just the beginning. Rawlings has done a fantastic job with their composite baseball bat. This model is extremely well balanced and the pop is fantastic! I would recommend this bat to anyone.
Cons: None
BBCOR Quatro JP other
Pros: I went through an entire round of BP and did not feel a single ounce of vibration. The new quatro collar really does its job. This bat almost sounds as if it were aluminum. I love it.
Cons: It says balanced but I felt like there was a slight end load to it. The grip isn't as 'cushion-y' as I would have hoped but it gets the job done.
Cinco stars for the Quartro! Coach Peterson coach
Pros: This bat is in a class of its own as it is redefining the composite bat world. Rawlings combine the best of both worlds with a bat that swings smooth and has a tremendous amount of pop. The barrel is easy to feel which promotes a proper swing path. Grip is course and durable. The most balanced composite bat I have swung. The rubberized Quatro collar seems to significantly reduce vibration. Great addition to the Rawlings family of bats and easily one of the best bats on the market.
Cons: * Not as all disappointed in this purchase.
BEST BAT EVER!!!!!!! Munter Hartindale player
Pros: I used this bat and I can easily say it is the best bat I have ever used. Great pop and great feel. It is extremely balanced but it can be used by both contact and power hitters. I would recommend it for anybody.
Cons: None
Best all-around bat I've used! Sammy B player
Pros: This bat is undoubtedly the best bat I have ever used. It has more pop than any bat I've tried. It is also a very balanced bat and feels very light while swinging. I have always trusted Rawlings for their great quality. The Quatro is a phenomenal bat, that all of the great players will soon be using. I can't wait to see the future of this bat!
Cons: There are no noticeable flaws to this bat.
The Glowstick Cory Conche player
Pros: The Quatro is simply the smoothest bat I've ever used. No matter the point of contact it feels like you hit the sweet spot every time. This bat is meant for any type of hitter from homerun hitters to contact hitters. This bat is all around one of Rawlings best products and is a highly recommended bat for any level of play.
Cons: not a flaw to the bat.
Great bat Connor player
Pros: Extreme pop out of the rapper great feel hits bombs and the grip on the handle is awesome!!!!
Cons: A bat like this might not be made this good again
Great bat Gavin player
Pros: Switched from the mako to the rawlings quatro for this season. Loving the bat already. Has a great feel and decent balance.
Cons: none
Great look but still needs help KRWKRW parent
Pros: The flex and feel of the bat are great with a balance swing and some descent pop
Cons: Other brands have more pop that my son tried on his team. The durability is not great. Halfway through the season the bat had more flex and less pop even a wiod bat out preformed. Shoock it after a few more games in and had a rattle inside. Rawlings was great on sending a replacement except the replacement cracked after the first outing during my sons first high school scrimmage. We will purchase a different brand that is used to making composite bats.
Big Bop, but Cracks Trippe Moore player
Pros: The bat has tons of pop, has a great grip, and feels light in the hands and on the swing.
Cons: This bat cracked just 3 weeks out of the wrapper and I hadn't even used it that much. Did this twice. Good bat, not durable.
Major con K zone player
Pros: The bat has amazing pop and balance right out of the wrapper. The grip tape beats all of the bulky ones to where you can truly feel the bat as you swing. No vibration at all.
Cons: Within 1 week of using the bat it was being looked at and there were a total of 7 different cracks along the barrel.
Broke 2 Steve parent
Pros: great pop, good feel, very balanced
Cons: Broke first one within 2 weeks. Sent it back at shipping cost to me. Received a new one stamped "no warranty" now it is broken after 1 month. Buy a velo and save yourself $100 and a headache.
highlighter devin shortstop player
Pros: its a really good bat great pop feels light very well balanced and when u connect in the right spot it sounds like heaven and the ball flies off the bat
Cons: price and i broke mine in 2 months
Looks Great... Durability's a Joke! Mike P. parent
Pros: Looks and feels Great with superb pop!
Cons: Bought 2... 1 for my 16 year old and 1 for a good friend/teammate. BOTH BROKE... DIDN'T EVEN LAST A COMPLETE HIGH SCHOOL SEASON IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA WHERE THERE ARE PLENTY OF WEATHER RELATED CANCELLATIONS!!! RAWLINGS NEEDS TO STAY AWAY FROM THE COMPOSITE BAT...
Glowstick Shane G. player
Pros: No vibration and great pop
Cons: Only 2 months out of the box and the bat snapped completely in half
Great bat but Jacob Kronebusch player
Pros: Great bat no ringing and a lot of pop great bat overall
Cons: My first one broke by mid season in two spots
Broke in less than 1 month Power hitter player
Pros: Good pop, nicely weighted. Good feel for power hitters.
Cons: Not durable. I have a 90+ exit velocity, and this bat broke (something large rattling inside, and complete loss of any pop). I always had DeMarini CF's and all lasted more than 2 full years. I did not like the grip that came with the bat, after the initial few sessions.
Good feel, terrible durability Anthony parent
Pros: Bat has some good pop to it. Balance is good, grip is really nice.
Cons: Bought bat 4/3/17 and it broke on 6/15/17. To much money for a bat that breaks after 2 months. My son got jammed on a pitch and bat broke right on the "R" on RAWLINGS.
Great feel and pop but poor durability Nunya player
Pros: Good balance and pop.
Cons: Fragile. Bat broke within 6 weeks of use. Rawlings warranty and customer support stinks - especially when you consider the price that you're paying. If your bat breaks, be prepared to be without it for at least 3 weeks. And you better not break the replacement they send you, because you only get one. So, clearly, Rawlings doesn't think they need to stand behind a bat they charge $400 for.
Dont waist your money! William Castonguay parent
Pros: Good Looking Bat!
Cons: Bat does not hold up! Out of the wrapper it has grwat pop (Which is short lived) After a few weeks my 15y/o bat broke! Sent it back and the one they sent him has mo warranty but is even more dead than hos broken one.... Not impressed will be switching back to Easton or Demarini. Stcik with Rawlings for Gloves, and Wood bats.
Quatro BBCOR Brian other
Pros: This bat as everyone has said has tremendous pop coming out of the wrapper and only gets better. Bought 4 the players loved them. The ball flew off the bat and we were clobbering the ball as a team and then the cons began.
Cons: We broke all 4 bats in less than a month. The durability on these bats is terrible for this cost tier of a bat. We have periodically had bats break that we buy for the team thats why you have warranties. But to break all 4 in less than a month into the season and then to get them replaced and break 3 of the 4 replacement bats is unacceptable.
2017 quatro Shawn Morin coach
Pros: This bat has a lot of pop to it. Feels good when swinging and making contact. But that does not last very long.
Cons: Not a very durable bat. Bought Quatro 34" drop 3 BBcor bat in January of 2017. Read all about the Quatro. I even bought a far less expensive bat with a similar size barrel for batting practice. Used the Quatro only in games. During a game 5 months after purchase the end cap of bat began to staqrt coming loose. I would push it back on. A few weeks after there was something loose inside the bat. My son had a few big upcoming tournaments so I did not send right away. I sent the bat back 8 months after the original purchase date. Received a new one that was stamped No Warranty. During my 1st game using replacement bat (which is a 2018 34" Quatro ) my sons second at bat a large peice has come loose on the inside. It sound like a very large piece. As you swing the bat you feel it travel up the barrel and hit the end cap. WOW!!!! I say. Very disappointed in this. Alot of money to pay for a bat that does not even last 6 months. Theres something FISHY about the replacement
Grinder bat Will player
Pros: Best composite bat on the market!!!!!
Cons: ZERO
Great Bat Avery player
Pros: My Amazon product is the 2017 Rawlings Quatro, This is a baseball bat, it is a bright neon color all over with Rawlings in black print. This bat looks good as well as it has a very nice feel when you swing it. It uses its 4 piece bat to generate more torque and have a more balanced feel. It uses its middle piece to deaden the vibration so you cannot feel anything when you hit. Personally it is the best bat I have ever swung, It has such a balanced feel. Meaning the weight is evenly distributed leading to the bat feeling lighter than what it actually is. It has a big sweet spot that leads to you barrelling up more balls. Alos when I hit one off the end of the bat or down on the handle there is no vibration. In any other bats you will get a stinger if you hit one in those spots. I highly recommend this product 4.5 stars out of 5. The only bad thing about this product is that it is a little pricey.
Cons: nothing

About the Brand
Rawlings is a major manufacturer of competitive team sports equipment and apparel for baseball, basketball, and football, as well as licensed MLB, NFL, and NCAA retail products. Rawlings is a major supplier to professional, collegiate, interscholastic, and amateur organizations worldwide, including the Official Baseball Supplier to Major League Baseball.
The first real innovation in glove making occurred in 1912 when Rawlings Sporting Goods Company introduced the "Sure Catch" glove, which was "endorsed by leading players all over the country." The Sure Catch was a one-piece glove with sewn-in finger channels and looked better suited for a duck's foot than a man's hand. Catchers' mitts used at the time were large and bulky with a single leather thong passing for a web.
In 1920, Bill Doak, a journeyman pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, approached Rawlings with an idea for improving the baseball glove from a mere protective device to a genuine aid in fielding. The "Bill Doak" model was so revolutionary that it stayed in Rawlings' line until 1953. Its key feature was a multi-thong web laced into the first finger and thumb, which created for the first time in baseball's young life, a natural pocket.
In 1925, Rawlings unveiled a three-fingered fielder's glove, and ten years later improved the Bill Doak model with a two-piece leather web. At the same time, the "T" web became a rage for first basemen's mitts. The pocket underwent a pronounced change in 1941 when the Trapper Mitt, also known as the Claw, appeared. The "Deep Well" pocket was so unique that Rawlings quickly patented it. The design was improved in 1950 by adding a leather piece across the top. Another significant creation occurred in 1948 with the three-fingered Playmaker. A five-fingered fielder's model, with all fingers laced together, provided greater pocket control.
The six-fingered Trap-Eze evolved in the 1960's. In more recent years, Rawlings produced the Fastback design, which gives a glove a snugger fit, greater extension, and overall control. The Holdster is a slot through which a finger can be extended for additional protection from impacts on the pocket. Then, there is the Edge-U-Cated Heel with its extended U-shaped lacing and the Pro H Web and much-copied Basket Web.
Some of Rawlings's more recent glove innovations also include the unique Spin-Stopper design which reduces ball spin when the ball hits the glove, and the Cantilever glove design feature that provides a cushioned area between the hand and the glove's palm area. In all, Rawlings has produced and patented more functionally innovative glove features and designs than that of any other glove manufacturer. The result is that the modern baseball glove is much larger, more comfortable, better padded, and made to last far longer than its ancestors. It is not uncommon to see today's Major League players wearing the same Rawlings glove they wore during their college playing days. In fact, Rawlings is the #1 glove in the major leagues. Rawlings maintains about 65 models of baseball and softball mitts and gloves in its line. The prototypes of virtually all of them have been field-tested by professionals before entering a sporting goods dealer's inventory.
