After seeing handpans on YouTube, I checked them out on Amazon. A totally impulsive purchase was made. I am very happy with this product. It is a joy to learn and play. Product is exactly as described and sounds great.

Pleased with product, verified with tuner…more in tune than expected.Will be a great starting instrument.

Love it I play it all the time

So this is not what I expected. This is actually cheap for a reason. With handpan drums, you actually get what you pay for, so in order to play like the musicians I saw on YouTube, I would have to buy a much more expensive drum. This drum makes clunky, dense, low tones and does not vibrate much when I use my fingers. A high quality drum should be making noise with less effort and should sound different.This product is cheap for a reason, unfortunately. I would not recommend this product to people.

There were lots of positive ratings in the pan listing; however, after close scrutiny I see they were mostly for other size pans, not for this specific item. Outer box was torn. Beautiful looking pan. Out of tune; lower notes had decent note sustainability; not so much for higher notes. Photo shows a D Minor Kurd tuning. There was no Bb3 note tuning. Pan tuning was closer to a D Celtic w/ different note placement. The D4 note was a second D3 note & the G4 note was a G#4. Required striking hard to get clear notes. There was pitting or rusting on the A4 note. Some concern about durability.Considering the price, this might be a 12 note pan (except pitting or rust) for someone who is just starting out or starting to expand their range of notes and not initially interested in public performances.Update: Rating increased from 2 to 3+. Received a replacement in excellent condition. Well packed. Still some drifting on note tuning ... not precise, however very good resonance and reasonable price for a drum for which to practice.

i only wish it were a couple of inches bigger, from 10 inches, or 9 inches, to like 12 inches/13inch I have been learning the notes on it, and teaching myself by ear like I always have with drums, listening to something and just playing it, same with rhythm guitar, stuff like piano, and things like this, take a lot of precision and practice, just cause you to know how to play an instrument, you won't pick this up and be a big shot with it lol, the sticks are very light, that is the only issue I have with it, but other than that, for any aspiring musician, its worth it alone to have to practice your overall, sound and key recognition

The quality of sound is mesmerizing. I just wished it came with a stand I could play it on. The stand it comes with us only for display. It was a big hit when we showed it at a recent gathering!

My wife says: This 6-inch steel tongue drum is a delightfully fun instrument. It produces clear and loud tones with a pleasing timbre. It would also make an excellent gift for kids or adults interested in musical education.However, some notes were slightly flat when it arrived, likely because the box was squished in transit. Luckily, tuning it was straightforward, using the instructions and my guitar tuner. Now, it plays beautifully. The drum is tuned to C, making it easy to play. But since there are no sharps or flats, I had to get creative with some songs.I had a lot of fun following the songs in the instruction book, even though some familiar tunes had different names. Playing with the mallets provided a clearer sound than the finger picks, but both methods were enjoyable. It's great that the set includes replacement stickers for the note numbers in case they wear off.One suggestion for improvement would be to include an option for letter stickers corresponding to the notes instead of numbers. Lastly, the silicone plug in the bottom hole actually enhances the sound when left in, which was a pleasant surprise.
