"waste of money"

Feature:
no features on the set are really good it's just a really cheap drumset

Quality:
like previous reviews the same thing happened to my friend, the pads slipped when hit not too hard and the hi-hat pad can't really be reached if you play cross handed which is how most people play.

Value:
this isn't worth it, not even for a beginner set, its more like a toy then an instrument. If you wanna drum I suggest waiting till you have enough for a cheaper roland or yamaha, or if you wanna just start out drumming pay 300 or 400 for a beginner acoustic set which which is alot better than ion.

Desirability:
along with horrible sound and quality this set would look ugly even if its staying in your basement

Sound:
I have a friend who bought this set and even though it's really cheap it's still not worth it. The sound quality is ok but still kinda fake sounding

Ease of Use:
it's a really easy thing to set up i think it was designed for beginners

Support:
I first heard of ion from an add for a drumset they are making for the game rock band 2 but never really heard of em before and I have been playing drums for the past 5 years, so I assumed they were not that good but when i played this set at my friends house it kinda confirmed that they weren't good.

Overall:
if this was mine i would sell it back immediately and start saving for something better, not even good for a beginner set.

"Do not buy this cheap drum set"

Feature:
The pads stay in place half the time but you always have to adjust them. The pads on my set kept leaning down, especially the toms. The kick pedal double kick sometimes which is extremely annyoying and ruins your playing, the kick pedals are junk. The hi-hat pad is set up horribly. It is too far to the left, I can't even reach it hardly when I play. The only way to hit it is to have unusually long arms or put your shoulder in an awkward and painful position. This drum set is designed to give you tendoitis. The only way to SAFELY set up the hi-hat is to put it on a rope and hang it down from the ceiling in front of your face. The only good thing about htis set is that it is lightweight and easy to transport.

Quality:
This set seems sturdy but the pads won't stay still and you have to put weights in front of the kick pedal to keep them in place. This seems more like a cheap toy than an instrument.

Value:
Not worth the selling price at all, I bought mine for $150.

Desirability:
I don't care too much about appearance just playablility, but this set has neither.

Sound:
This set sounds decent, there are not many sounds to choose from though and only 2 sounds are worth using. Not much variety in drum sounds, each pad only has one sound.

Ease of Use:
Like I said before this thing seems like it is designed to give people tendonitis. I plan on selling this and getting a better set ASAP. This set is not worth buying.

Overall:
I intend on replacing this set as soon as possible. Low quality, cheap hardware, not a good set to play on. If I knew what I knew now about this thing I would of never bought it.
