Steel Tongue Drum - 15 Note 14 Inch Tongue Drum Instrument - Hand Pan Drums with Music Book, Steel Handpan Drum Mallets and Carry Bag, D Major (Navy Blue)

I bought it as a gift, good packaging, good quality, and fair price. It was a perfect gift.

Fast delivery and was well packaged. All items were as described. Excitedly checked out all the 15 notes and was pleased to find them correctly tuned, clear and sounds great. Highly recommended !

just such a delight playing on it !

It's very attractive and the sound is on point, everyone who sees it enjoys playing it.

Such good value for money. Beautiful tone and carry for each note played. Very soothing.

Oh my goodness, this thing is "absolutely beautiful". First of all I purchased the 14 inch, 15 note in D major steel tongue drum. The pictures don't do it justice but I tried to get as many shots so you could see everything. It was packaged good and secure inside of the black case that it came with. Also be aware if you purchase this for a gift, make sure you have them send it in another box because the heavy cardboard box it comes packaged securely in also has the name of the company and what the item is on the outside of the box. If it was a gift for anybody it would ruin the surprise lol. First of all the case is made wonderful. Excellent padding and zipper is secure. There is a little zipper pocket on the outside of the package to tuck your mallets inside of also. This case will keep the drum very safe and protected. It really is made excellent. It comes with a pair of rubber mallets that are just your basic mallet. They work fine now they do the job that they were meant to do. They measure 8 inches from the end of the mallet to the top part of the rubber Ball. The rubber ball is about 3/4 in diameter. I did buy me a nicer set where the rubber mallet is 1 inch in diameter, and they have longer handles. I'm going to use the mallets that came with the tongue drum and wrap them in felt to give a bit of a different sound to the drum. Anyway, it comes with two sets of gold number stickers to replace any of the stickers that may fall off. The stickers are okay on the drum, it would be so much nicer if they could just figure out a way to engrave the numbers onto the metal but naturally that would make the price go up more, these will work for now. It comes with 6 little finger mallets and a nice little music/instruction booklet to get you started. The drum itself is GORGEOUS! It feels nice and heavy duty. I weighed mine and according to my scale it weighed 8.5 lbs. When I weighed it it wasn't inside of its case either. I measured my drum across where it bows out slightly and my measurement was 14.5 inches. The rattan weave around the drum is really nice and not just cheap string looking stuff. It is about 2 1/4 in wide and it is secured around the drum. It's not something you can loosen or make tighter. It really adds A touch of elegance to the drum. The drum itself that I purchased is a deep dark metallic forest green. It's not just flat paint either, there is a metallic sheen to it and you can see it when the light hits at a certain way. It's hard to capture it in the photos but I tried. The stickers on top of the drum are okay but since I'm an arts and craft type of gal, I will either make cool looking ones with my cricut machine or else I will just paint them on with some acrylic paint. The sound of the drum is absolutely stunning. I downloaded the app "pano tuner" from play store (that is not a misspell that's how the app is spelled it's not piano LOL), and I tested all the tongues with that app and my drum is tuned perfectly! There is not a dead sounding tongue anywhere on the drum I received. Each tongue rings beautifully and in tune. About a week ago I randomly stumbled upon these tongue drums but the one I stumbled upon was called a panda drum. Beautiful with lots of colors to choose from but they have a very high price to them. The size I was looking at was a 15 inch and they had them on sale for $259. They said they were $150 off and on sale. That's a little high for my pocketbook so I started researching Amazon and after many hours of researching Amazon this Hopwell had the highest reviews and the best reviews. I decided to take a chance and purchase this one. If all else fails I could have sent it back if it didn't meet my expectations. Well, I'm not sending it back I'm keeping it. It went well beyond my expectations and this green color is deep and rich and it's just a beautiful piece of art as well as an instrument. I very highly recommend this. I would definitely purchase it again and recommend it to anyone. This is the brand to get. I have always loved drums. When I stumbled upon these things called steel tongue drums last week, I knew I had to have one lol. You're never too old, I'm 64 and I thought to myself, I need one of these in my life, lol. So glad I made this purchase. This is going to be so fun not to mention give me some calmness and balance in my life LOL. Go for it, you know you want to, lol. You won't be disappointed!
