Pros: Bought this bat for my son. He loves it so far, its light and easy for him to swing. Great looking bat also.
Cons:
All star son
Pros: My son is 6 and he got the 29'' 17.5 oz due to him being 4'6 and 60lbs.The bat has only hit 100 balls and it keeps getting better with each hit.Great pop better have outfielders that can catch and bat still looks good but it's not white
Cons: Only con is the not so white hand grip should've been black but who cares great bat
Tulsa

Cons: None so far

All star son
Pros: Over 200 balls later the bat is still looking great at the barrel.When compared to the other bats with bigger price tags this bat is just as good (catalyst & 1000) all these bats are on my sons team and the miken will compete with them
Cons: still the white grip
Noah's Dad
Pros: The bat has a great look. The weighting is good.
Cons: When my son hits the ball with this bat the ball goes no where. I am not sure if it is because it is a 26/14.5 or if it is the bat through out the sizes.
Baseball star
Pros: Great bat
Cons: Broke
All star son
Pros: everything is great
Cons: Took to many balls for the bat to reach its potential if you want a game ready bat out of the wrapper this one is not it
02Count
Pros: Had for 2 months now. Still holding up good, only practices so far but no issues.
Cons: White is marking up pretty bad and handle is turning brown now.
head bat buyer
Pros: light, good weight balance for a big barrel bat aimed at younger players.
Cons: The manufacturer does not tell you that this bat is intended for 5-8 yr old COACH (slow) pitch baseball and not intended for machine or player pitch ball. JustBats experts revealed this warning. Had I known that I would not have bought this bat for my 9 yr old elite fast pitch player. Spend the extra $40 for a better bat, like an Easton Omen
b. wallace
Pros: bat looks great.
Cons: first bat cracked after 8 games. sent in and got another one. 2nd bat the handle broke after 2 games. i am done with miken the bats are made cheap and do not hold up.a 7 year old kid should not be able to do this to a bat. i am going with a louisville slugger or easton. dont waste your money on these cheap made bats.
Anonymous
Pros: nice and light
Cons: cracked after second use
Disapointment
Pros: None
Cons: This bat is over priced and has no pop, very disapointed, was hoping for a light bat that my tiny small framed son could use but no luck here! dont buy this bat. Hes back to using his old bat!
MattMatt
Pros: So far AWESOME bat!! First time up to bat my 7yr old hit homer, never forget the smile as he rounded third. He has hit 3 more since then with the last one being a 3 run homer to win game...

wondering in Oklahoma
Pros: Love the bat, great pop, but have some reservations about it. Bought it for my son (8 yrs. old and 60 lbs.) we are half way through the season and the last ball that was hit with it made a "thud" sound instead of a "crack" sound that the bat usually generates. It appears to be cracking!!!!! Lasted maybe 20 games, is this normal? Love the bat, but is this normal for composite bats?
Cons: Possible lack of longevity.
Jalen soria
Pros: I got the bat 2 weeks ago it made me hit the ball so hard it craked
Cons:
nikkiredsauce
Pros: the bat looks cool. none other than that.
Cons: too long to break in. been breaking it in as instructed, and still no pop. handle gets disgustingly dirty. why not make the tape black or neon. white? do not buy. get the worth instead. or easton.
ace
Pros: great
Cons: nunthing bad about it
Heat
Pros: My son is 7 yrs old playing U9 A division ball and this bat is perfect for him. The size and weight are perfect. Most of the kids on the team use it and are hitting the ball alot furthur then before. I wish we had bought it months ago.
Cons:
Riley H
Pros: First tournament with the bat and my son was 5 for 5 with 2 of his best hits of the season.
Cons: None
scott72
Pros: Really tight to begin with. Bat has not broken in as quick as i thought it would. Hopefull Miken lives up to its name as it has in the past with really hot composite bats.
Cons:
Miken Mike
Pros: Looks cool, light swing weight.
Cons: I'm a fan of Miken composites and had high hopes for this but the bat is just dead. No pop whatsoever. I was hoping this would get better when broken in but that's not the case. Worst Miken my kids have ever used!
TA Parent
Pros: The bat was delivered just in time for my last game. It has good pop off the bat. Still breaking it in and my son swings it really well. All the kids are wanting to try it. We are a 7U team from Louisiana and it has changed my sons game greatly.
Cons: The grip is white so it gets dirty really fast. The grip is all ready coming off after one game.
Coop
Pros: The bat has a big sweet spot, a good grip, and Coop is crushing the ball!
Cons: None.
Cam
Pros: Well balanced for great bat speed.
Cons:
JAJ
Pros: Light weight and good balance.
Cons: After 7 games and countless batting sessions, the bat just doesn't have any pop. My son went back to his old bat and is now hitting harder. I should not have purchased this bat.
lil E
Pros: Great bat easy to swing.
Cons: Small sweet spot and wished they sold it in a bigger size but same weight.
