DeMarini reviews and complaints

Sold public a faulty bat and literally waited a year of my son's baseball career as it broke 2nd game into high school year and now will not be replaced for summer ball because they dont have them in stock anymore. Tell you why you dont have a replacement, because thousands of people are having the same issue with a complete failure of a product. I honestly think there should be a class action suit against this company for this. Worst business model I have ever seen as they could care less about the customer... Steer clear of this company and their products they are complete busts, also if you see camps sponsored by them I would also steer clear of them... Start hitting them in their bottom lines.

I purchased a DeMarini Zoa bat for my 13 yr old son in January. He was using the bat about 1 month after purchased when it cracked. I returned the bat with original receipt (shipping $13) and two weeks later they deemed it was a manufacturer issue. They issued me a $400 voucher to purchase another bat from two websites. Demarini and Louisville slugger. So, here comes the problem. Both websites don’t have any bats with the size I need! I send DeMarini an email on April 6 th explaining this… no reply! Now here it is almost May! NO BAT! I want my money back! Do not buy from DeMarini. They are garbage bats

I have been in a batting rut for a few months now, i just cannot seem to hit the ball far enough so my parents surprised me about a month ago by taking me to a sporting goods store and buying me a DeMarini bat; the cf4. Well yesterday i went to my game and i was up to bat, this being only like the fourth time i had ever used my bat, and i hit the ball and the whole end of my bat just flew off. It embarrased me so much because the umpire had to check my bat to make sure we had not put any thing in it like tennis balls or something. so my brother in law checked on line and it said you had to have the recipt to send it back to get it fixed. Of course my mom just had to through it away so now im stuck with this sorry piece of crap bat. i will never buy another DeMarini and i would never recommend this bat to anyone, it didnt even help my batting.

So I purchased a CF4 bat for my 16 year old daughter at x-mas time where it sat for over 1 month before putting into play with her high school teams practice in February. After striking the ball in practice, she said she heard a very distinct "click" which was heard by several others. I examined the bat and found a chip in the surface of the bat and decided to send it in to have it examined. After 2 weeks I was told by Demarini that it was determined that there is nothing wrong and it would be sent back. After pressing "Nick" on the process and his expertise, I realized that the determination wast hat someone picked it up, looked at the chip, shook it and said "it's good". I asked if the could X ray it or ultrasound to check for structural defects and was told no. I brought up the point of newness and also the care of not using it a a batting cage. I think that after spending over $300.00 for a bat I could expect that they would at least fill the area to prevent it from spreading, which they also failed to do. My question was then "why" did the paint delaminate?, and if it is a manufacturing flaw, they should at least repair the surface which they refused to do. I am now stuck with an expensive piece of crap that Demarini refuses to stand behind. My kid has been playing since 7 years old and knows when soemthing doesn't feel right with any bat. Demarini is crap in my mind and a customer service nightmare.
