The item itself is great, got it at a very good price, no complains.

Note for Amazon: the product description mentions cup earphones in the package, none are included.

Even without the phones this is a very good buy: the sounds are rich, easy to set up. I have also the elder brother of this product (YDD-55), which has 100 rythms compared with the 50 this one has, but it is also more expensive.

Ideal for the piano, bass or guitar player to use it for background percussion track.

Note: it has no MIDI, if you need it go with the other model.

Judging by the descriptions, not sure this was meant as a toy, but not sure what to call it as it is not being used as a drum trainer. Our 10 year old son is interested in music, but hasn't started in any formal music lessons. He likes to use this with his headphones and drum along with the music. The only issue is that with the hard plastic surrounding the rubber pads, when he misses, it is louder than we'd like. Still, so far it has been fun for our son to play and spends significant time finding new tunes and new drum patterns.

I bought this for a Christmas gift for my 10-yr-old granddaughter who carries a small drum stick set in her backpack and drums along to songs on the radio as we go to piano lessons. The set looks in excellent condition, and the instruction book looks simple enough to figure out the various elements available on the set.

I'm confident in the Yamaha brand, so I'm expecting no problems.

We got these drums for our 11 year old girl as a Christmas present and she hasn't stopped using them since. Excellent sound, size not too big (easy to storage) and it came with a nice pair of headphones.

Never saw anyone happier than my son in law when he realized what he had just opened! A former drummer who now lives in a NYC apartment, this was the perfect idea....compact yet full of options and fun to play.

I always wanted to get the Yamaha YDD40 for the longest. I thought $99.99 was too much so I checked every where that sold the drum and got it for 39.99 at bestbuy.com. It is a good little electric drum set, quality and sound is awesome.

The $100.00 digital drum is just fine, however, the same day we bought it at Amazon, it was on sale everywhere for $50.00. We should have returned it but considering the hasstle of packaging it again, mailing it, shopping for another one, waiting for a refund, and since our grandkids wanted it very much, we just kept it. Given Amazon's reputation of reasonable pricing, we assumed that we would pay a fair price for the item. Wrong! We paid 50% more than we should have. We'll be a little more cautious in price checking next time we consider Amazon.

Packaging was definitely excessive, but we are pleased with everything except for the fact that the headphones do not fit with the drum set, you must have some kind of adapter, which of course we did not have on Christmas morning......
