Pros: This bat is HOT right out of the wrapper!
Cons: EVERYBODY wants to use this bat!
Mel
Pros: Good right out of the packaging. Single, double and 2 Homers in first game. Manufacters 6 month warranty a plus! 26oz bat but feels like a 27. Not too heavyu for line-drive hitters. HAs good power too!
Cons: Does not come with 33in option through Just Bats. Just 34oz. No option for length just weight.
Maximus32
Pros: The color is perfect being a Steelers fan. Also the bat is lite weight thus improving my muscle memory with hitting the ball. Im a stocky guy who appreciates the slight endload.
Cons: None thus far..
Mike D
Pros: Awesome grip, feel and results from bat so far. The end loading of the bat feels good on the swing. Had people asking if my bat was doctored after having 9 RBI's last game with 3 homeruns in cold weather...the ball just flies off the bat. Very satisfied with it so far.
Cons: None so far, I can see everyone wanting to use it as a team bat in the future though. Not the bats fault though.
Qball8
Pros: I hit the ball further with this bat than any other bat I have ever swung. Great feel, great endload for easy swings.
Cons: The reason I gave it 4 stars is because after 30 swings it started to spiral web looking like cracks pretty badly. After about 500 swings it completely cracked through and broke. I sent it back to Easton yesterday to get my replacement. 6 month warranty is awfully short if they are gonna break this soon.
colonel
Pros: I have three bats a 26 and 28 oz metal bats then I have this a 27 oz 34inch end loaded bat that feels great just swinging it back and forth u can tell a huge difference can't give it a highr rating cause I haven't hit with it yet
Cons: The temperature that it has to be to use my bat can u have a cold temp bat but not loose the feel and production on the field can't wait to use it though I'm excited for 2013 season

rick
Pros: This bat was hot right out of the wrapper. Hitting bombs! but...
Cons: Started to Web after 20 cuts, end cap broke off after about 50 swings on it, six month warranty. A bunch of my softball buddies also have this bat and experienced the same. Very weak end cap!
Coach
Pros: Purchased 4 weeks ago and it was hot right from the start. After several practices and games it remains just as hot if not a little better.
Cons: the only down side is the Steelers colors
Dub2
Pros: Great grip and feel. Break-in time was minimal.
Cons: This is my 2nd Easton bat and last. The end cap broke on the 1st bat after one game and something broke off on the inside of this one and just rattles around and that was only after about 75 swings. Don't even want a replacement, just want my money back or a credit from Easton.
Caliente24
Pros: Very nice end loaded bat...swings easy. Love that they kept the grip from last years class. Nice pop with the bat (Review is based upon 34/26oz hitting 44/375)
Cons: Spiral webbing after ~100 hits. 6 month warranty after Easton's notoriously good warranty of 400 days stinks. Bats are "repaints" from previous year models (no factual proof).
Maxwell
Pros: Great bat,had a 26oz and sent it back for a 30oz, straight out the wrapper I smashed three balls over the fence, well over 300ft. I'm anxious for the season to start on Sunday... great back and excellent service!!
Cons: None yet
Johnny-G (OUTLAWZ Pueblo, CO)
Pros: Excellent bat, has excellent pop fresh out the wrapper, I can't wait until its broken-in.
Cons: I haven't found any cons yet.
m willi
Pros: just pulled it out at bp and I was very pleased with this product. seemed to more drive then before..
Cons: none at this time only about 30 good swings
XOXO
Pros: Love, Love, Love this bat! First, it barely scuffs and if it does I'm not sure how this works but it wipes off?!? I am not a home run hitter what so ever and this bat has me batting over 700. Being a woman at 125 lbs., I am hitting consistent line drives with an occasional 320 ft. bomb. For the price you can't beat it! Requires very little break-in, maybe a dozen hits and your good to go. (34" 26 oz.)
Cons: Wish it came in a different color.
ddcobbs
Pros: Love this bat. Normally a singles hitter, but right out of the bat launched 1st hit to the fence. This bat took didn't take any time to break in. My team mates all started using this bat with 4 going yard the 1st game. This bat has lots of pop and performs very well. So far it's the team favorite.
Cons: None so far.
Cski1986
Pros: Have had the bat for two weeks now, about 100 hits on it. It was good out of the wrapper but now is sending ball over the fence 300+. It has a great feel too, it says end loaded but you can't feel it, which I love about it, it Feels great.
Cons: Looks like a banana.
Branden Branden player
Pros: This bat is sick. Red hot out of the wrapper no break in time needed at all with this one.
Cons: After two months with minimal use the bat has a crack in it already. I am a little disappointed may have to go back to Mizuno Blackout. 6 month warranty is to short as well. I will send it in for a replacement.

I just had to trade my Salvo in for the new XL2 under warranty. I loved that bat but it didn't last me long before it broke. I'm nervous the same thing will happen with this one.
