I bought these for a six-year-old. They are a good starter set and quite sturdy. There is definitely a tone difference between the two drums--they look and sound like real mini bongos! :)

I can't recommend these. Sure they were for a two year old, but I did have an expectation that they'd arrive well constructed and with a bit of real tone difference between the two drums. Not at all. The 'skins' are sort of baked, or shrunk, or chemically dried onto the body of the drums (as opposed to stretched) and one 'skin' is bubbled, warped, and otherwise not flat or tight by any stretch (sorry) of the imagination. There is, on a scale of 1-10, a .5 tone difference between the two drums. I get more tone from different sized upside down plastic cups. The thing doesn't even accomplish a nice bongo sound (or any bongo sound), just a muted thwack. Yes, I'm holding them right. The wooden bridge between the two drums is loose, and can't be tightened in spite of the exposed wing nuts. Bummer. Even my daughter, who's been dying for bongos, was underwhelmed. Avoid these. I think I'll send them back. In fact, I'm changing this 2-star review to one. Can't believe they're charging this price for this product, which would be better valued if it dropped out of a gumball machine.

Received product and it was missing the bottoms and the wood was cracked; I am very Dissatisfied; but it would cost too much to send back. I don't recommend to all my family and friends not to do business with this company. And After several attempts to the vendor and not receiving any response back; I canceled the order and re-ordered from another vendor; upon doing this; this vendor shipped out damaged product to me and of coarse I can not return it due to it would cost more for me then to donate it.
