It’s hard to go wrong with the sound of a kalimba but this one exceeded expectations! It came with a nice padded hard case to keep it safe, and seems to be well made with quality materials (it looks as pretty as it sounds!) I bought this as a gift and ended up inspecting it and playing around with it a bit before repackaging and wrapping- It was perfectly in tune, though I ended up adjusting a couple of the pegs for spacing. My partner now plays it at all hours and I’m not sure whether I enjoy falling asleep to it more than waking up, or vice versa. I may actually buy myself one some day. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I recently learned about kalimbas and thought they were really cool and relaxing so I bought 3 different ones. I compared the MIFOGE kalimba (wood), AKLOT kalimba (acrylic), Ubblove kalimba (marine - wood+acrylic). This hollow wooden one was definitely the loudest and deepest sound, with the most beachy vibe. However the sound doesn’t resonate for long and the upper 2 tines are dead. Other than that, I guess it’s just up to sound preference but it was fun to play around with. I liked the warmth and depth of the sound so I’ll likely be buying a higher end wooden kalimba in the future. Read more
This kalimba is very well made. The wood is stunning with an inlay design. The tines all work. The price is not bad at all. Years ago I dabbled with a piano keyboard. I said Y not try something different n I'm glad I did. It's very neat sounding like a miniature harp. So simple to play. I purchased the easiest songbook for kalimba, which is for kids n the 100 songbook for kalimba. I purchased a Ad-20 transducer so I can plug into my Rockjam amplifier. U want something fun to learn, give it a try. Read more

We have loved this. We have a newborn child, and I wanted to be able to engage them musically. It's not always convenient to sit them somewhere else while I strum a guitar. I decided to buy this so that I could play little songs for them while holding them in my lap. The notes are clear but gentle. There are enough notes to where you really can play a lot of songs. Anything in a major or minor key without accidentals will pretty much work. 1 = key of C. 6 = Am if used as the root. It's soothing. The numbers make it easy to identify notes. We play with it pretty much every day. I like the design that has some different angles where you grip with your hands to make it more comfortable. It's a great way to intrigue and entertain our child that is affordable enough that if we drop or damage it, I'm not out of a lot of money. Totally recommend if you're looking for something like this. If I had to start over, I would buy exactly the same one. The case is nice, too. Read more
