I purchased this for my son, because the price was good for what I thought I’d get. However, upon opening the shipment, I could clearly see how damaged and used the items looked. I returned it for an exchange. The 2nd time I received the order, the items looked even worse! I didn’t even have to open it. I returned for another exchange and Amazon never sent me anything. Nor, did they refund my money,even though an email from them indicated that another was on the way. I had to call and discover that they had made a mistake and had not intended to send me another and , oh yeah, because I’m calling, I can have my money back and start over again? What???????? The man on the phone could not have been nicer. However, what if I hadn’t called about it? I had so many orders, I could have easily lost track and just gone by their confirmation email that all was fine. A little disappointing and now I’m looking for a better band set for my 16 month old.

My two year old son received this as a gift for Christmas. I think if I could do it over again, I would have set this aside unopened until he was older. Within 10 minutes he was bored and started banging on his toys with the stick instrument. Not to mention he made a hole in the tamborine’s surface with the triangle’s chimer stick. I think the surface is just a paper material. Educationally, it’s what you make of it. As someone with no musical ability or knowledge about instruments, my son is left to just make noise with the items. Anyway, I’m hoping he will enjoy it more appropriately next year. For now, it’s going back in the closet.

We like the set a lot. We purchased it for our 9month old who took to it immediately. We still havent given her the triangle and the symbol, I think we will wait until she is a bit older. We gave her all the other musical instruments and she loves them. She love the shakers, clacker and the tambrine. I love that the shakers are quite so it is not annoying to listen to my 1 year old shake them next to my head for fund. All the toys are loud enough that she enjoys them yet quite enough that I allow her to play with them.
We like it alot– we have used them daily for months now and all seems working (knock on wood).
Would recommend to other parents. I would buy this toy for any child over 9months (just pick which instruments are appropriate for what age, depending on your child). If i was to do this over again, i would introduce one instrument per month or so.
