Union Extra Height 5 pc. Junior Children's/Kids Drum Set - BLACK - For 3 to 11 yrs Review

These drums are a disappointment, though, from what I saw, there is really nothing decent out there. The hardware is cheap and rickety, the cymbals horrendous (pie plates actually sound better), and the drums are barely tuneable (only 4 lugs per rack tom, 6 per bass drum) and even changing the completely useless heads yields only marginal results. Now don't get me wrong... I'm not expecting this to sound like Neil Peart's touring kit, but what I am expecting is that the kit should be rugged enough to last 6-7 years and sound like a musical instrument instead of a cardboard box filled with nuts and bolts.

The bass drum pedal is marginally playable. Hi-hat pedal is strictly for appearance and hardly playable.

The only thing that I would say that Union did comparatively right, were the drum shells, but even then... I said "comparatively" after all.

Not sure if the Ludwig Junior kit fares much better. As far as I can tell it has only an upgraded bass drum pedal and hi-hat stand. Everything else is basically the same. Not sure if that is worth the extra $80.

If you're on a budget and don't care so much about the positive reinforcement a good sounding instrument will provide to a beginning musician, or you just need a trial kit to see if little Tommy will keep up with playing, then this kit is fine.

If you're looking for a good investment that will provide a great instrument to learn on, consider contacting your local drum store for a better (though of course much more expensive) option.
