    "Module and pads are comparable to Rolands TD3, but you'll have to excuse the cheap frame and plastic mounts."

    This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

    Feature:
    Although it doesn't support dual zone, there are more inputs then the Roland TD3. The pedals are kind of cheesy but the pads themselves are just as sensitive as Rolands. The frame and mounts are the weakest point. The clamps break and the pads don't stay still. I made custom mounts for mine and have them mounted with my Roland TD3 kit.

    Quality:
    It's almost a toy, you get what you pay for. The cheap frame and pedals are not pro-quality so if it's not for a kid, don't expect much. The small clamps and mounts break and strip easy.

    Value:
    The module itself, although navigation sucks, can hold it's own against the TD3 and that's priced around $300. The pads are a good quality and keep up with rolls and speed metal. I've never had problems with dropped notes. Just plan on mounting it to and with something better than what is provided.

    Desirability:
    Definately not too sexy by itself. I never did have it setup just by itself. It looks like a kids toy, but mounted with my Roland kit and kicks ass.

    Sound:
    I was surprised. I also own a Roland TD3 kit and bought this to add more pads. The module on this set has better sounds than the Roland TD3 and more tom sounds.

    Ease of Use:
    The module isn't as straight forward as others. Too many "multi" buttons. In order to change drum sounds you have have to repeatedly press the same button then some arrows, not good for a quick set change.

    Support:
    I didn't have to call the company. I bought mine at Target and exchanged my first set after all the clamps broke.

    Overall:
    I like it, it gets the job done and was cheaper than buying additional pads for my Roland kit. I was surprised by the module and pad quality.

    "Product was made with the intelligence of a brick. Seriously..."

    Feature:
    Good selection of ports i suppose. It came with horrible headphones and drum sticks though. Although no one REALLY uses these anyways.

    Quality:
    Absolutely horrible quality. I bought TWO of these drum sets, the first one died on me after about 3 months of use. The second one died on me after... once again 3 months of use. I was terribly pissed off. Both drum sets completely stopped working, exactly the same way. I ended up selling the second one, and i would never buy one of these sets EVER EVER again. I highly don't recommend this for anyone who's played longer than 7 and 1/2 minutes.

    Value:
    When i think value, i think of a product that lasts.... these do not, and because of this, i'm giving it a horrible rating.

    Desirability:
    Sex appeal like a turd covered in burnt hair. But what do you expect from a cheap electronic drum set?

    Sound:
    This set has pretty ok sound, although i had MANY MANY problems where once every couple of hits it would not work... which makes it impossible to record. The sounds are pretty good through out, but with the one trigger heads makes it hard to do much with.

    Ease of Use:
    Pretty easy to use, however some functions took a long while to figure out. maybe i'm just dumb.

    Support:
    Never used their services.. but i returned the first one, and sold the second one for parts

    Overall:
    I honestly would never buy one ever again. nor do i recommend anyone else do the same. I bought two. both died. I see a problem here.

    "Should have swallowed hard and boughtYamaha"

    Quality:
    The quality issue for me is the attaching hardware, I would actually give this set an "8" if the hardware worked.

    Value:
    If the company had responded to my inquiry this would be a 6 or 7

    Support:
    Asked for help from the manufacturer web site using their "contact us", no response at all.

    Overall:
    Based on customer support, and faulty mounting hardware, I probably should have gone mainstream, aka Yamaha.

    "Footpedals quit working after only three months. I returned it and the new set I received did the same thing."

    Quality:
    After only 3 months or so, one of the footpedals quit working. This has happened to me twice.

    Sound:
    Double hits occur often
