Ludwig Questlove Pocket Kit 4-piece Complete Drum Set Silver Sparkle Finish

For the price, this children's drum kit is an excellent value. With the help from an experienced drummer, this kit assembled and tuned pretty easily within a few hours. Many nice touches include memory locks for the cymbal arm, tom rack, and kick drum legs. There was also a tub of thread lubricant for the lugs and a nice rubber protector pad where the kick pedal attaches to the kick drum. These are not components that you would expect to find on an inexpensive set of drums. The drum heads were not a perfect fit to the shells but with a bit of effort, were able to be tuned reasonably well. With a bit of time fine-tuning things, the kit sounds good. The tuning really made all the difference. Although we didn't use the video to tune the set, the pocket school video instructions are definitely helpful for someone who may not be accustomed to performing this task and are an added bonus for this set. The included cymbals are not of the highest quality but are on par with what I'd expect for the price of the kit. These could be swapped out later as my daughter grows into the kit. All in all, I personally don't think that you can go wrong with this beginner children's kit as it sounds great for the reasonable cost.

Product was very nice. Wrapped and packed well everything damage free. It seems sturdy and sounds nice for a 250 dollar drum set. Cymbals aren’t great but the fact that it comes with cymbal stands and cymbals for 250 is cool too I’ll just upgrade the cymbals later. I could see how it could be hard to assemble but i had no problems putting it together since I’ve assembled drum kits before. If you never have it comes with a link to instructions online. For a beginner and young child I think it’s an awesome set and there are some cool beginner lessons from Questlove himself in link also!

It would have gotten 5 stars but it doesnt come with a kick drum riser. Been using it for about a month now. I bought it to have a kit at my house so that my drummer wouldnt have to haul his back and forth. It is being played by an adult.ok the pros:Sounds great, using it with a 20 watt Marshall guitar tube amp on a 1x12 and a Fender 100 watt bass amp with a 1x12. It has no problem being loud enough to be heard and even with the down sized rigs it can get really loud when we rehearse. The heads it comes with arent the best but sound good and would last a long time for a kid which is what this kit was designed for. The cymbals are not great but once again they should be fine for a kids set.Cons:No kick drum riser. After about a 15 hours of use my drummer turned one of the hi hat cymbals inside out. The kick pedal and the hi hat stand chains are very small. Probably fine for a kid but I doubt they will last long for an adult.Summary:IMO this is one of (if not the) the best kids kits you can buy. It is also a very affordable way for an adult drummer to pick up a pocket kit for a great price. My drummer and I have actually decided to gig this kit. The small size and portability is gonna make it perfect for small to medium size venues.

I got this kit for the kiddo who's been expressing an interest in rhythm AND enjoying watching Questlove guest appearances on kids shows. A perfect pairing. I grew up in the 80s and 90s and spent years in bands and so am familiar with the kind of drumkit a typical punk kid would drag around to shows, and the pocket kit is just as good. I think the cymbals are the weakest link, but that's expected, plus I think it'll be a fun thing to explore saving money and upgrading later on. For the price and convenience, this is an insane deal. Don't hesitate to pick one up if it sounds like the right fit for you.

This kid was easy to put together, and is a extremely high-quality, what you would expect from Ludwig! My grandson, who is two years old, has fallen in love with us and plays it like he’s 10 years old! I am so impressed with these drums I would easily buy them three times over if I had more grandkids! Ha ha Ha seriously. This is a genuinely good buy and I highly recommend it

This drum set was so worth the price. It's sounds really good, especially for the price. I highly recommend this drum set for a beginner or someone who just wants a decent drum set that is small and sounds great. And as a big adult, it's not so small, like a clown drum set small, but just right for a small size, if that makes sense.

The media could not be loaded. My son has been playing this drum set for the last 6 years! He’s 10 now! It has been very durable and is awesome for beginners. We are about to upgrade him to a bigger one but now my 6 year old is stoked to get it!

Fine for a small child. Don’t expect it to last.
