This was just what I was looking for! My 5 year old niece just loved the drum until her 2 year old sister put one of the drum sticks through the drum head. My 17 year old son who is a drummer was even impressed with this toy drum. He is looking for a drum head to replace the broken one for my niece so she can continue to play her drum like her older cousin.

My 2 year old loves this drum, but the top of the drum ripped within a week. It is made out of something like a heavy paper. A toy car fell onto the drum. While the drum clearly isn't made for that, it was not a heavy toy or a long drop. It was one of those things that happen often in a house with a child. I would purchase a drum with a different kind of material on the playing surface next time. Something a bit more sturdy.

For Christmas, my five-year old daughter wanted a drum that she could use for marching in a parade. Most I found were geared to the very young but this was perfect. It has no balls in it that make extra noise and seems to be very sturdy. The only problem was, it being for Christmas, it was shipped in its own box with the product picture and information all over it.

for the price,this drum is not a good value. It is very similar to one purchased 2 years ago at a toy store for 1/2 the price.

My 6ry son loves this drum, however it was packaged with one side of the drum torn. It will be sent back for a replacement.

A really nice drum. It sounds loud and kids love it. Unfortunately, the drum skin didn't last long and was destroyed by a three year old within days. Not sure what the cover was made out of, only a sort of paper. It was really was weak. Luckily there are two sides that are playable on this drum and the second side is hanging in there under adult supervision (but kids naturally want to whack this thing of course). If the makers provided extra and better quality drum "skin", then this drum should last a while and be a 5 star product (that can't cost them much). It is relatively easy to take apart and reassemble, but parents of toddlers don't want to spend those rare moments of time they have to themselves to locate, buy and reassemble parts to newly purchased toys.

I bought this as a gift for my 3 year old daughter. She has a fascination with the Drummer Boy (from the Christmas song), so we bought her this. She seems to really like it. It is very well made.

The drum is lined with a thin paper so it is very easy to tear just by beating it with the drumsticks, but it is a very affordable drum so I really didn't expect much. Even after a tear, you can place tape over it and it sounds as good as new. You basically get what you pay for with this item.
