Feature:
I got the guitar with a black finish. It was flawless. It is a flat black finish. I mention that only because, for some reason, I was expecting a high gloss finish. No big deal though because it looks nice. The machine heads are not sealed but I didn't expect them to be top line on this modestly priced travel guitar. The case is awesome. I didn't look at the dvd yet.
Quality:
Unit was cosmetically perfect. I couldn't find a blemish on it.
Value:
I didn't play any other travel guitars but at this price point, I cannot see anything of better value.
Desirability:
It's cute, it sounds nice and it works for what one would want a travel guitar for.
Sound:
As many have mentioned, the small size of the guitar causes the bass to be limited. Additionally, the guitar comes with light Vinci Strings which don't help the bottom end either. Also, the intonation was off with those light strings. I replaced those with DR Rare Bluegrass strings which have a heavier bottom. The sound is much better - at least more to my liking and the intonation is much improved.
Ease of Use:
Took me a while to get used to it. Being so small it doesn't lay comfortably on one's lap. Using the strap improves that somewhat. Also, it was odd having my left hand closer to my body while playing. All this is minor though as I quickly got used to it's diminutive size.
Support:
I cannot fully comment on this as I have not had any reason to contact Washburn for any matter except to warranty register the product at their website which was a breeze.
Overall:
I don't think I would ever want another travel guitar. If lost or stolen, I would replace it with the same.

Feature:
I do like that sturdy case with the backpack straps. The only problem I have with this little guitar is the SMELL. Kept hoping it would air out, but several months later, it still stinks like an acre of used cat litter in a chemical dump. Not *quite* as bad as it was at first.
Quality:
Seems pretty solid, stays in tune.
Again, it STINKS. Washburn: you could find glues that don't stink!
Desirability:
It's cute.
Sound:
Pretty good for its small size. You can't expect big mellow sound from a travel-size guitar that doesn't take up much room...
Ease of Use:
Just keep in mind that you can't have small size and comfy fit/stability all at the same time.
Support:
Haven't got around to calling Washburn yet.
Overall:
Wonder how long I'll have to wait for the STINK to dissipate...
