My sin is learning the drums and has this same kit at school. He absolutely loves i! Remains to be seen if he's the next John Bonham 🤞(no pressure).

It’s fantastic value for money, there are enough kits and customisation options to find the right sound. The practice modes are a bit hit and miss to get started with as a newbie, would appreciate if Alesis had a couple of video guides as well for the module. In terms of niggles, the Velcro on the bottom of the hi-hat pedal has come away from the bottom of the pedal. Nothing major, can just replace it. The other niggle is the snare drum arm, you’ll need to regularly tighten the joint connector (I’ve found in my experience). Overall would highly recommend to anyone, especially new drummers starting out who want an electric kit with that feels similar to an acoustic.

Had this kit for a little while now and I’m enjoying it. For practice it’s great. I use it with studio headphones and practice almost silently in my garage. The mesh heads feel nice under the sticks thought a larger pad for the snare would be nice. Hight wise the complete kit seemed quite low and took a bit of work to get to a reasonable playing hight. Having an aux in to play along with backing tracks at volumes that won’t end in you having hearing loss is great.

Great value, not the easiest to put together and find the correct positions. It will take a while. Especially if you're a beginner like myself. Works with Clone Hero on PC too very easily!

The high hat peddle isn't very responsive and when you plug the headphones in it sounds like you're in a massive empty hall This is rectified by pulling the Jack plug out about a millimetre. Other than that I'd say excellent value for money and I'm glad I picked this one.

really good and beautiful drums, high quality and with an excellent sound. Now I can train hard for play better!

Bought this for my son as an upgrade from his electric kit from ten years ago. Much quieter and he said the added features are great!

All in all though it really is a fabulous kit which I'd 100% recommend. I've had the kit for a month now and all these niggles I've got are just that - niggles. At this price point you will not get better.

My last kit was a £2k Yamaha DTX affair and whilst the built quality isn't in the same league, the feel is possibly better on this kit. The mesh heads work great, giving it a pretty convincing 'real' feel. It doesn't take up a huge amount of space

If you are used to acoustic kits, this one will take some adjusting at first. The snare drums is awkwardly positioned and very small. 1 times out of three I'm hitting the rim. The low and high time are a good size but the floor tom is also awkwardly positioned and too small. The hit hat needs to be tightened as another user noted - it tends to move away otherwise. The kick pad is of decent quality and easy to use. The hi-hat however is a big low point with very little realism to the real thing so you would need to keep that in mind when learning. Sound is loud enough - beware to not go too loud lest you destroy your ears. Easy to find how to use external source sound to practice. All in all for the budget I am pretty happy so far. It's of a better quality than anticipated though I would like a better snare drums on this one .
