Boikido Wooden Musical Set

The wooden zylophone barely makes different sounds when you play the different notes and the wooden sticks are not attached so my daughter uses them as chew toys instead of playing with them and they are very small and dangerous even for children 3 yrs old. The picture shows that a maracca comes with this set but instead I received some kind of wooden clapper which doesn't even make any noise unless you shake the hell out of it and it is a very dull sound. The flute makes one loud shrill noise and, again, the notes do not vary much. The tambourine is the only decent piece in this set. I should have returned the whole thing but my daughter threw the clapper in the garbage which, ironically, is really where it belongs.

These things do not make music. You are better off buying each instrument separately from somewhere else. Save your money. this is junk.

We love the instruments & the colors are so fun! Have to wait on a couple of them though because my 1 yr. old puts them in his mouth & they're still a little too small for him to do that. Overall we love the product though!

I bought this for my baby's one-year birthday, as she LOVES music/musical stuff. Mainly what sold me was the thought of having a wood xylophone, thinking the sound would be softer/more natural (and less annoying) than the usual metal ones found in every other nursery. However, these didn't have the "natural" sound I was hoping for and neither was much, if any, softer in pitch than the cheap metal ones. Furthermore, they didn't even sound the notes right. I had worried that only having four keys wasn't enough, but I couldn't have known that some made the exact sound. (I might as well have a couple scrap pieces from 2x4's to use.) So while this set looks appealing for the reason of varity, it really doesn't offer it. Case in point, read on:

The flute essencially doesn't work, and there's no way to get more than one note to come out of it. The tambourine is okay, but really is no drum. The little shaker is probably the best item out of the bunch, but I've seen much better ones and is not worth buying.

While my kids did take a big interest in it all, I think it was a rip off. I would have returned if I'd saved all the original packaging. I ended up trying to sell it in a garage sale for ten bucks but had no takers even remotely close, despite the fact that it was only two weeks old and just very gently used. So, I still have it for now, but I'm planning to replace it with something else.

(I'd love a recommendation if anybody cares to comment. Thanks in advance.)
