Love it sounds great. Light weight. Very nice so far

I was soooo EXCITED to get the "SINGOFIRE" 12-Notes Handpan Drums for Adults, 22-Inch 440Hz D Minor Kurd, Purple, UNTIL I went to play it, and I have to strike my fingers so HARD just to get any sound out of it and HURTS MY HANDS, ONLY way I can get really good sound is by using the Mallets, BUT the Mallets are so small for me to use so they are useless for me, it looks very BEAUTIFUL, and was very well packaged just not good sound to me, Not sure if others are having the same problem with there's or not. I was HOPING this one would be a great one for the money, BUT I guess I'm WRONG. Like the old saying goes, ((((YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR)))) ((SO TRUE TOO)). (RETURNING DUE TO (NOT) ABLE TO PLAY AT ALL, AND (NOT) GOING TO HAVE A BIG PAPER WEIGHT TO JUST LOOK AT) THIS DRUM IS (JUNK) IN MY EYES.

Handpan came to be desperately out of tune. I've been a musician for 37 years and to be honest I didn't even need my tuner to know. But, when I did check it's tuning I was amazed at how bad it was. Not a single note correct, overtones on harmonics incorrect, both even giving it about five cents leeway on mistuning. Absolutely terrible. Also, the reviews for this product contain text, video, and pictures of incorrect products like tongue drums and non 12 note handpans. Zero stars if possible. And if you're reading this MANUFACTURER, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!

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.

Like the drum alot. Only one issue. The two highest notes are kind of useless. Well, not useless, but are very hard to get a good tone from. I tend to not even use those notes. So, if I would ever buy another one, I would get a 10 tone one. I thought the extra notes would be cool. Eh... not so much.
