This is great! Family loves it, visitors enjoy it; this has become a household musical phenomenon.
This is great! Everyone in the family loves to play with this (so much that we’ve now given some away as gifts). The tones are nice, it’s enjoyable (and easy) to play, is the perfect size (not too large for storing or display, and nicely sized for finding all of the notes easily with the included mallets). Even visitors become intrigued and feel compelled to play on it for a while. The kiddos have made up their own songs with it and like to share them. (It does come with a music book, which has been referenced, though the instrument itself is so easy to play that most play it by ear . . . read the book and then figure things out as they go.) It’s a nice bonus that this comes with a carrying pouch, to keep everything together. It’s also been said that this sounds nice in the rain, though we haven’t yet tried that — Imagine that it’ll be safe and may be a neat experience . . maybe the next time that it rains…..(?) The color is pleasant, the materials and paint quality are top-notch, the mallets are great (it also includes thumb thumper thingies that we’ve tried and may appreciate more in the future as we become even more familiar with this house-favorite musical instrument), the pouch is a nice bonus, … Overall: This is great. Glad to have found this and brought it home. This isn’t a ‘buy and forget’ sort of thing; it’s become somewhat of a household phenomenon that has created lasting enjoyment, interest, and intrigue.
