Customers are satisfied with the performance of the bat holder. They mention it's sturdy, works well with bleeker bat system, and plastic and MDF bats, both solid and with hollow/textured bottoms. It's very handy and a helpful tool for throwing balanced pieces. Customers also say it'll hold bats in place and stabilize warped or wobbly bats. They say the tan base color is adequate.
