Five Star Reviews: | 80% Drum Set January 3, 2016 Awesome Christmas gift for my nephew. He loves them. the 5pc drum set is just like the description. | 67% Sounds really good, my kids loves it and it gets use ... October 1, 2016 Sounds really good, my kids loves it and it gets use on a daily basis. Can't remember the age range but if your kid is taller than 50 inches it will be too small. Great looking first drum set January 18, 2016 Super cute drum set for a young child. My son is too young to even sit on the stool yet, but he still plays it all the time. I'm a musician and my son was always trying play my full sized kit, so this is our decoy. For this price, you're getting a very fun toy that also creates a decent sound, if you tune it properly and perhaps make some tweaks. I found the cymbal made a fairly unpleasant racket (kind of like bashing on a sauce pan), so I replaced it with an 8" higher quality splash cymbal for $25. Obviously this is not a professional instrument so you must have realistic expectations, but it exceeded mine. The tom and snare sometimes don't stay securely in position, so you have to tighten their mounts from time to time. I found the kick drum sounded better with a small towel placed inside as a dampener. Fantastic! January 26, 2015 This was a Christmas gift for my 3 year old daughter from Santa. She absolutely loves it. The quality is great and it was easy to put together. I was surprised it came in such a little box, but it was all there. Best part is that it came with sticks and a seat. Many other sets for more don't come with either. Also, the seat will grow with her. Great for a gift. March 2, 2014 The drum set was top quality for the price. I like that everything was included...the drum sticks, the stool. It was easy to put together and was a great gift for a little boy. The drum set arrived on time and was double boxed which was nice. Wonderful January 20, 2014 Just the perfect size for my 3yr old GGrandson..Got to watch on Skype..This a great way to encourage him |
Four Star Reviews: | 15% It is a great deal though May 26, 2016 If you are in it for the cymbals, this probably isn't the kit for. It is a great deal though. I recommend putting a pillow in the bass drum I bought this as a gift. This product does ... May 1, 2016 I bought this as a gift. This product does not come with an instruction manual, therefore had to use youtube videos to assemble. Nice starter set October 19, 2015 I purchased this set for my 6 year old son. Nice starter set. Durable. Too much to put together. | 17% No instructions August 28, 2017 Love this drum set! However did not arrive with any directions on how to put it together. Was easy to look up on Cecilio. Shop no more this is the drum set you want to buy March 28, 2017 This is a great product! Shipping was fast! I was nervous at first that the screws would be a problem like they were for other people. The instructions could have been better i found myself re reading it a billion times. it took about 15 mins to get it all together. Very sturdy, VIVID color we got blue, the sticks are great quality and the all around quality of this product is 5 stars but i give this 4 because of the instructions . My son is 3 on saturday and he is about average height for his age and he is at the lowest setting for the seat so he will enjoy this product for a long time. I would recommend this product to everyone that is looking for a great drum set for kids it definitely hold up a good drum session for a kid! this item is good quality and really cute February 8, 2017 this item is good quality and really cute. my daughter loves it. only negative is that it is small. more for age 6 and under. I bought it for my 9 year old so it is really small for her. it fits my 6 year old but maybe only for a year or so. Four Stars April 19, 2016 Better quality than we expected for the price. Works fine for our 2 yr old drummer. Little Boy Loves It July 7, 2015 My little boy loves it and that's the most important part. Putting it together was a little difficult as the directions weren't super clear. More pictures would be better as well as listing out all of the pieces that we should have and their names separately from the diagram.Maybe it's just my weak fingers/arms, but I can't get the two drums to stay tight. They keep coming loose, sliding towards the stool, which causes an imbalance making the set tip over. GREAT STARTER SET February 2, 2014 My 7 year old daughter loves them, I loved putting it together because I could see how well made and strong it was made. 1 month in and still going strong. :) |
Three Star Reviews: | 5% drum set September 2, 2016 Drum set is good, incorrect description 13" Tom 12" Tom 16"should read 10" tom 12" tom 16" | 5% Very nice except it has a squeaky drum pedal can not ... April 27, 2017 Very nice except it has a squeaky drum pedal can not find a way to get the squeaking is out of that drum pedal. damaged. April 5, 2017 put this together last night and where I would have insterted one of the screws on the big drum was damaged and I cannot get the screw inpretty disappointed with that.otherwise everything else looked great. a bit smaller than I thought it would be.will add photos later. Got this ofr my niece for christmas. Put it ... March 26, 2017 Got this ofr my niece for christmas. Put it together (a decent amount of assembly required) and gave it to her. Drum instructor immediately told her it would not work she needed a full size set. well built but smaller then we wanted February 26, 2017 Son love this, and likes playing them.. really well made, but they seem smaller then we wanted... the product needs a photo with a kid playing them or something that you can tell how small they are Arrived broken December 25, 2016 Great drum set but the snare was broken when we received it. The screw was snapped in half when we took it out of the package so it won't stay on the stand. We had a super sad little boy Christmas Day. |
Two Star Reviews: | 0% There are no reviews yet | 5% Returned August 3, 2017 I returned this. It was missing parts I didn't have instructions on how to put it together. Very disappointing. a little flimsy April 13, 2017 My 3yo managed to completely disassemble this in less than an hour. None of the pieces screw on tight enough and it was wobbly. Love it. March 1, 2017 Love it.... but it came in a small box, with all parts and no instructions because it was straight from China. I had to Google it and find a picture so I could figure out how to put it together Waste of Money January 15, 2017 First thing I noticed was the price was dropped by 10 bucks a week after Christmas. Fine!! What i did not like about it the fact that the instructions lacked any illustrations/pictures and was written poorly. Once you figure it out it is then easy to get it done. The symbol is like hitting a metal rod attached to a brick wall. It was the worse sounding symbol i have ever heard. A waste of money He loves it and has fun with it January 3, 2017 Bought this for our 2-year-old son. He loves it and has fun with it, however, during assembly one of the tom mounts in the top of the kick drum cracked in half. It wasn't overtightened and hadn't even been used yet, it just crumbled apart. The alloy used was clearly pretty cheap - but what do you expect for under 100 bucks. but not made as nice as what I'd think for the price December 1, 2016 It's ok , but not made as nice as what I'd think for the price , easily tips if child was to lean on , top of one of the drums were not tight straight , has a bubbleing effect , would of returned it , for the price I paid , but cost a lot to ship back ? I wish the seat could be lower , peddle can't be reached with short legs . But mainly disappointed with the ripple in the drum , plus the sound , has no quality ! Disappointed |
One Star Reviews: | 0% There are no reviews yet | 6% One Star August 4, 2017 Very disappointed! Tried make my son happy! Piece of junk fell apart and made him sad! Got torn after one week of moderate usage April 21, 2017 The drums are rather easy to assemble and fit both of my kids (3yo & 6yo). The set is very aesthetic in design and my kids loved it. However, after only one week of a reasonable usage, one of the drums got torn completely, making it impossible to use again.This set is very pricey, so imagine my frustration. This will be shipped back one way or another. Horrible drum set March 11, 2017 Horrible drum set. It tips over every time my son tries to play it. The seat has already broken under the weight of my 30 lb toddler. I wish I could give this negative stars. Broke within 10 minutes... December 25, 2016 My son loved this Christmas present for about 10 minutes until one of the bolts holding uo the snare drum snapped in galf |
