Cheap and fun.
TrEr 20.10.2017
I got this just to add to the pile of "fun" stuff in my studio. It works great. The sound is a little thin and metallic, like a toy xylophone to be honest but unlike a toy xylohone it is perfectly in tune and very much useable as a real musical instrument. The sound can also be made CONSIDERABLY richer by placing the metallophone on some kind of resonant box. Like a wooden table or a speaker cabinet. Even a wooden chair can work.

The bars are a lot smaller than on a full size xylophone so a lot of precision is needed when playing.

Build quality of the wooden frame is excellent but the little plastic parts that keep the bars in position seem VERY fragile and I suspect they may prove to be a weak point.

For the price I'm really happy with it. It's not a top quality instrument but great fun to have around the studio and lots of cool arrangements can be made with it. Certainly a lot more fun than loading a MIDI xylophone (although the result may not necessarily be better...).

You really can't make a mistake with this one

It's cheap, it's in tune, it looks good and it sounds awesome. It sounds even awesomer if you put it on something to amplify the sound a bit. Anyways even without that it was pretty nice gift which is still used even after looong time after the birthday. Considering all that it's a bargain if you're looking for something musical for you kids to play with and you want it to be a bit more than just another quickly broken toy.

Superb little metallophone, bright and well tempered, good for a toddler and a recording musician. I also bought extra rubber end mallets for a softer attack… recommended!
