Feature:
Videos are good, expecially because a theremin is an instrument that most will have to learn without a teacher.
Quality:
It is made well, although since I do not travel with the instrument, I cannot attest to its ruggedness when disassembled and reassembled on a regular basis.
Value:
It is what you have to pay in order to get a good theremin, so it is worth the price.
Desirability:
A theremin is an instrument that always amazes those who hear it. This is not so with, say, a piano, guitar or drumset. Sometimes the theremin seems more interesting than the performer.
Sound:
Clear, penetrating, full sound, with a pitch range that inspires experimentation with new sounds.
Support:
Moog music ws very helpful when contacted. They took an interest in my problem, which was one related to tuning the instrument when tuning was beyond the capacity of the external controls.
Overall:
When I bought it, it was considered to be the one to buy... maybe not the most expensive, but a serious instrument. Now, whenever there is a better instrument out, I will want it.

An excellent tool for pitch recognition but also a legitimate instrument for making music. Personally, I think it should be regarded as a instrument for generating melody and not a sound effect of screech generator. Perhaps this makes me a prude or something, but Leon Theremin hoped that the device would be used to carry a melody, a classical one perhaps, but a melody none the less.
Having accompaniment is important. Keyboard support can give a Theremin player real support in timing and intonation. I
