Editor's Rating:

CONS
Bottom Line
World's Hottest Bats is an excellent brand with a good history with bat shaving.









The new owner gives World's Hottest Bats a huge question mark about quality. Price is the highest of all companies reviewed and over twice what some bat shavers charge. World's Hottest bats have many negative reviews (former owner reviews). No compression testing results. Only 1 level of shaving is available.
World's Hottest Bats has been in the business longer than all companies reviewed, but WHB has a new owner, and that bat shaving experience has gone. With inexperience, the highest price, and prior customer issues, I would look for another option for your bat shaving.
Price:
Bat shaving:
$149
Bat rolling:

Polymer coating:

How long in business bat shaving:

Better Business Bureau rating:

The World's Hottest Bats brand is solid and has a lot of history, but new ownership brings a huge question mark to the business. WHB has a solid grip on the bat shaving industry with a #1 spot on google. Getting to the top of a Google search takes time and effort or big money spent with SEO companies. I believe, in this case, a little bit of all three has put them at the top. They have come out with a few new things over the years. One of them is a rubberized coating to help with inner barrel flaking and durability. They also call their services a "re-engineering of bats" instead of bat shaving. As far as we can tell, this service employs what most other bat shavers offer with their bat shaving services: bat shaving, rubberized coating, bat rolling, end loading, ring removal. They also engrave bats which I thought was a pretty unique service. Offering bat shaving at $149 is the highest price in the industry, add rubberized coating, and the price jumps to a whopping $164. This price difference is too significant and had to be mentioned. The good thing about the new ownership is that all negative reviews are from a previous owner.

"If there is a problem with the Bat(s), other than cracking or denting, that is attributable to poor workmanship by World's Hottest Bats; World's Hottest Bats will repair the Bat(s) at no charge for up to six (6) months from the date of this Shaved Bat Purchase Form and Release."
Guarantee
World's Hottest Bats has one of the more solid guarantees as far as what they will take care of; one of the things they did not mention was replacement of the bat if it was damaged. Another downside is the 6 month period, which would not be a full season if something were to happen.
Reviews
Reviews can be skewed to one side or another and most people only review when there is something negative that happens. Positive reviews usually means the company went above and beyond the normal. Most reviews are taken with a grain of salt and have to be analyzed by the reader as legitimate or not.

This company did exactly what they said they were going to do. They're prices are competitive and their work is 1st class. In addition, I commend their customer service department. They answered all of my questions and were with me every step of the way. My bat was rolled, shaved, and the end cap was replaced. As a result, I have a bat that really exceeds my expectations. It has a whole lot of pop now! I would highly recommend World's Hottest Bats!

Read the reviews. All is true about the company blames the customer for the damage. I had two bats damaged. The first one my son and I practicing hitting and on the fourth hit the handle broke. He is 10 years old and no way he has strength to break it. The second bat they put a flat spot on the bat. Same as other people on yelp. Randall Langton sent a note with the bat that he would replace the bat if I have any trouble. He lied!! He just keeps asking for photos. It's been two days short of a month.

Ordered a bat from this company a month ago and still have not received a bat or even a reply to repeated phone calls and emails. Highly disappointing customer service. I'm now relying on my credit card company to attempt to contact them as I was forced for the first time in my life to dispute a credit card charge. Only reason I gave one star was because I couldn't give zero stars.
