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.

The Ludwig pocket kit is the perfect drumset for parents and or guardians looking to get a starter drumset for any young and aspiring children. With all of the options for colors aesthetically you can't miss with this drumset. This drumset is also considerably well put together. Taking into account a child between the ages of 4 and 10 these can take a beating.

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.

The Ludwig pocket is one of the best kits money can buy for any young musician looking to build his or her chops. In a wide variety of colors, you'd find a hard time coming across a color you don't like. Aside from its looks, the Ludwig pocket comes packaged with everything you'd need to get rocking straight out the box. Designed by The Roots' own, Questlove; you can rest assured that this drum set was made with only the best in mind.

What a great design, this mini kit has all you need to begin to rock! Incredible what they are able to make fore such a low price. If you haven't seen this kit in person then it is time to take a trip to the store and see it for yourself.

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!

Ludwig has achieved greatness again with the Ludwig Pocket Kit. Not only might this kit fit the needs of parents trying to find a fit for their young budding rock stars, but it also accommodates the most experienced drummer looking for mobility as he plays the corners of beautiful metropolitan social squares. The kit includes everything you need to pick up and start drumming anywhere the music takes you. I highly recommend this little gem of a kit, made by one of the most gargantuan names in drums!

This is a great kit designed by Questlove and Ludwig. This kit is designed for a young beginner without sacrificing quality for the budding musician. Just because a student is beginning does not mean they do not deserve quality and Ludwig has built with that concept in mind. The kit includes the basic setup for an introductory kit with really thoughtful, educational and well-presented materials available online from Questlove. All the tips given can educate the young drummer AND their parents on the 'hows' and 'whys' of drumming. This is a great choice for any parent wanting to invest wisely in their child's music education.
