Union Drums - UJ5 5-Piece Drum Set - Black

Great drum set for beginners. My husband and I decided to give our son this set of drums for his 11th birthday. We honestly did not want to spend a lot of money on this since he is learning to play and we thought it would be a good idea to try this set and it really was an excellent option, the size is ideal for his age and it is good quality for the price we paid.

Excellent option for a child, great first drum kit.

This is a really good set of drums for a kid starting out. I feel like I got my money's worth. My son loves them and I am glad I bought them.

My 10 year old daughter expressed interest in drumming so I thought this would be a good set for her.

The first thing to keep in mind is that this kit is basically $200 (at the time of this review). I am a musician and I have played the drums for a very long time. My 5 year old decided he wants to take this up and of course I want to teach him. This kit is laid out like a regular, adult sized 5-piece kit should he decide to keep doing this as he gets older. I looked at other "inexpensive" kits online and most of the really cheap ones are not laid out like they should be. Not to mention that they are way too cheap. I also did not spend a lot of money for a brand name (and I am familiar with them all) because what if my kid decides he doesn't want to do this after he gets a little older? This is the best value. I expect he will get a good 5 years out of this before he grows out of it. For the price the actual drums sound just as good as the little more expensive junior kits. The cymbals don't sound good at all to me (or my wife who isn't a musician) but to my 5 year old, they are awesome, and that is what matters. If you intended on spending under $100 for a kit, don't if it is at all possible. Those kits are not laid out and you are short-changing your kid's musical learning experience. Spend a little extra and get this. I am happy for this purchase.

you get what you pay for . I was expecting more musical . but its king kid play . so its ok

Not what i spect.. No instructions!! And din't like the product

I purchased this drum set because of the reviews it had. I had this shipped express because I needed it as soon as possible. We pulled it out of the box to assemble and all of the metal parts had rust spots.
