quality instrument; not too heavy November 19, 2008

The is a very nice musical instrument, just as the other reviews have stated. I got one for my five-year old niece, who lives out of state. I was a little worried that it might be heavy and therefore expensive to send. But the "Angel" Glockenspiel is pretty light, so it will be a chinch to ship out, and for her to carry it with her. It's pretty sturdy, has an easy to open and there are no loose parts (except for the mallets, of course).
Yes, there are two full octaves, starting with "G" ("Sol"), and I was surprised to find all the sharps and flats, too!
There's also some little stickers with the "do", "re", "mi"-s on them. No music book. I think that by eight years old a child could read some simple music and play tunes. Most should be able to play some easy tunes by imitation and maybe by ear even earlier.
I am a strong believer in music for children--the earlier the better--and I am very happy to find an instrument like this that is pleasing and easy to use. My niece is going to have a blast!
Nice set October 2, 2008
I just received this, and have started getting acquainted with it. The sound is nice, the action is nice, and the case is attractive. I was thinking about ordering a xylophone when I came across this. It gives me much more opportunity to be musical! I like the mallets, too.

I bought this for my one year old instead of a cheapy xylophone that can't be used once she gets older and I love it. The sticks are one piece so no threat of the ball falling off and her choking on it. She bangs the heck out of this thing and it stands up fairly well (She did smash a little bit of its foam deadener, but it still works, hope it won't affect it later). Nice sound and Mom has more fun playing it then the baby I think. Love the fact that it is a "toy" now and will be able to be used for real music when she gets old enough to read music. I do dislike that the cover won't lay down flat, so it looks just like the picture when opened, I do set my music there, but wish I had the option to lay it down flat or take it off.
Great deal! June 6, 2008

This is a great value. It's incredibly difficult to find a glockenspiel with the sharps and flats that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Unlike a previous reviewer claims, the notes were not off key. Nor did I have to bend the mallets to remove them from the case. The sound quality is good. For those who are picky about the tones, they can spend more than a mere $15 on a higher quality instrument. This is for my children, ages 2 and 4, the older of whom is on the autism spectrum. Affordable and good quality and unique instruments are a great find for use as music therapy. Since this has all of the notes, we can accompany them using the piano. The vendor shipped immediately and I am completely satisfied.
Best Value! April 17, 2008
Compared to anything else I've seen out there (And I've looked at a lot!) this is the best value for the money. I love it's portability. It is well made. My now 20 month old daughter has "beat" on this for almost 4 months and it shows no signs of the abuse. The notes are loud and clear. It's brought a great deal of musical fun and joy to our family.
