It's actually a great little guitar, considering its price.
It ships unbranded, which I wasn't happy with as it's pictures show it with a branding label inside of it and a branded headstock; it is however an unbranded guitar. That said, let's review.
It's action is pretty good. Strings do not sit too high or too low, fingers glide up and down the neck taking minimal string pressure, which is very nice. Its body produces a warm, vibrant sound, however it's volume isn't particularly loud, which is not to say at all that it is a quiet playing guitar, merely that it does not sustain for very long between its string vibration and sound reflection through its medium sized body.
It is a great sized guitar, comfortable playing either standing or sitting. The paint job is nice, however the paint around the sound hole is nothing more than a sticker decal. This is fair, however again, when we consider the price of this good little guitar.
The guitar loses tuning on the 6th string frequently. The rest of the strings have a nice and tight winding. However, this could be because of the generic non branded guitar strings it ships with. At this time, I am still playing with its original strings, so therefore I will not rule out its string tuners.
I have been playing for half of my life, this was a great way to get me back into playing as the costs of guitars is too high. I suggest this as a great way to get back into playing, or get started playing because of its price and its acceptable quality. With an external microphone, it records nicely. It is a great option for jamming between friends and family, and I couldn't see why it wouldn't be great for beginners learning the art.
All in all, I like it a lot. I do wish it had its labeling as depicted, but as someone who has bought plenty from China on Amazon and eBay, I know how it goes. Highly recommended for its cost and acceptable quality.
