Real nice

2008-06-14
I bought this for my one year old instead of a cheapy xylophone that can't be used once she gets older and I love it. The sticks are one piece so no threat of the ball falling off and her choking on it. She bangs the heck out of this thing and it stands up fairly well (She did smash a little bit of its foam deadener, but it still works, hope it won't affect it later). Nice sound and Mom has more fun playing it then the baby I think. Love the fact that it is a "toy" now and will be able to be used for real music when she gets old enough to read music. I do dislike that the cover won't lay down flat, so it looks just like the picture when opened, I do set my music there, but wish I had the option to lay it down flat or take it off.

Great deal!

This is a great value. It's incredibly difficult to find a glockenspiel with the sharps and flats that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Unlike a previous reviewer claims, the notes were not off key. Nor did I have to bend the mallets to remove them from the case. The sound quality is good. For those who are picky about the tones, they can spend more than a mere $15 on a higher quality instrument. This is for my children, ages 2 and 4, the older of whom is on the autism spectrum. Affordable and good quality and unique instruments are a great find for use as music therapy. Since this has all of the notes, we can accompany them using the piano. The vendor shipped immediately and I am completely satisfied.

Best Value!

Compared to anything else I've seen out there (And I've looked at a lot!) this is the best value for the money. I love it's portability. It is well made. My now 20 month old daughter has "beat" on this for almost 4 months and it shows no signs of the abuse. The notes are loud and clear. It's brought a great deal of musical fun and joy to our family.

Don't pass this one up

With the price of tone bells, orff instruments and the like making multiple purchases impractical on most school budgets, this is a godsend. Lovely tone quality, good construction. I bought 5 and will buy 20 more if we can sell enough cookies to raise the funds.

Great prop for my nearly normal puppets

I am using it with my glove puppets...Fun sound in a portable case...Would have prefered brass tip mallets..but that would have caused the cost to go up.

Great Product, Outstanding Value

This is a great musical instrument for the money. We got it for our 16 year old who's a mallet player in High School (and he marching in the Tournament Of Roses). It was intended to be a "gag" gift, because he wants a professional marimba (so we decided to spend $15 instead of $5000). He has fun with it, says it sounds great, and is tuned well enough (although not perfect). This is a sturdy, great sounding, quality instrument. Perhaps it should not be purchased for the very young, since the keys may have sharp, metal edges.

Rock the Glockenspiel!

This Glockenspiel is by far the greatest! I recommend this product for all the non-musical players and the musical players. My children love it and I do too.

Although it is true that I am not a learned musician, I still love music and I love to "play" around on different instruments. I am not an expert on any of them, but can play a couple of songs on each fairly well.
This bell set is wonderful!! Beautifully made and self contained in a plastic case. I bought it for myself (it takes up less room than a keyboard or piano) - but have also let my nieces try it. It has stood up to the durability test and we all love it! :-)
