What we liked

  • + Four 12 inch bats let several pots firm up on their own bats while throwing continues on the next one
  • + Two pin holes at 10 inch spacing suit most standard wheel heads, and a pair of 1 inch bat pins is included
  • + HDF with a waterproof surface coating, plus a bonus Batmate pad meant to steady the bat on the wheel head

Trade-offs

  • - Wood-fiber HDF relies on its surface coating for water resistance, unlike solid plastic bats
  • - Single 12 inch size only, with no square or small insert bats for mugs and other small pieces
