Bought this drum set for my 13 yr old daughter, who just started jazz band. This drum set is compact, so it doesn't take up a ton of room. My daughter is able to play this set with ease and overall likes the sound... with the exception of the cymbals which we will eventually replace. This is a great set because it has everything my daughter needs to practice what she is learning at school and as a parent I loved not having to pay a ton of money.

We bought this as a Christmas gift for our 12-year old son. He's just learning the drums, and it really is the perfect and affordable drum set. Great value for the money - includes everything! I would not consider it a set for young kids - just a starter set for all ages. Fairly easy to put together, ships right to the door, looks nice, overall very happy with it.

If you are looking for a starter kit for a friend or loved one and want something that will be able to take a beating like a drum should then look no further than the Ludwig Pocket Kit. This kit comes with everything including cymbals. And being a Ludwig brand kit only insures that the sound from this inexpensive kit will still have a good sound to it and be able to be correctly tuned.

Ludwig has been making great drums for many years. This is a very affordable kit that comes with everything you are going to need to get playing right out of the box. Cymbals, hardware and thrown all included makes this a great choice for your kids first drum set or a portable kit for any adult. The sparkle finishes look great and the drums sound awesome.

In the description it says that this kit is built for a 10-year-old...I don't see it. While it has a 16" bass drum, a 10" tom and a 13" floor tom, this kit is great and is perfect for just about anyone, no matter the age. It comes in a variety of colors and if you upgrade the heads you will have an amazing little kit!

This kit is good for any drummer of any skill level. It is compact enough that it doesn't take up a huge amount of room, but is still able to give me a good punchy sound I am always looking for. Is super easy to take down and put back up again. Good for just grooving by myself or jamming out with all my friends.
