I am very pleased with this instrument. The sound is great and fills every need i had. The only downside, which for the price range it is in mightn't even be a downside, is the holders that fasten the metal plates are made of plastic and if you aren't careful with it they might bend and/or break off.
But, if you play it like a normal person and take care of it, maybe not hand it to your toddlers unsupervised, it should last you a long long time.
