"Totally AWESOME!!!"

Feature:
Includes sticks but not a seat or bass drum pedal. I would have gotten a double bass pedal weather or not it included one so this isn't really bad for me. Has a bunch of sounds to use though. Ordering a MIDI-USB adapter in a couple days so I will be able to use my computer to use many more sounds. :D

Quality:
I give this a 10 based on the price. The stand is very sturdy. But you can't do some of the things you can with a real set. Like choking the symbols. But again great for the price.

Value:
Great value worth its price plus a couple hundred more!

Desirability:
If I did not own this product I could truthfully say I would do anything to get my hands on it!

Sound:
Sounds good but I get a lot of distortion when beating on the bass a lot. Probably just my headphones.

Ease of Use:
If you read the instructions for like one minute you will figure everything you need to know out. Easy to customize drum sets and such. I'm not sure if this was just me but I needed to plug the hi-hat control pedal into the 'FOOTSWITCH' input on the module instead of input #9 like the instructions said. Alesis support was very helpful on that issue. American agent that actually knew what he was talking about and not constantly checking out his computer to figure out what to do next.

Support:
As I stated above Alesis support was awesome! Before I ordered I called zZounds tech support to help me decide which set to get and also called after to find a new amp so I don't need headphones. (blew my old guitar amp with it, not the drums fault though the amp wasn't designed for it.) And both times I had a great experience and all 3 times calling tech support there was barley any wait at all. I don't think I was on hold for over a minute total.

Overall:
Great product, I may buy a second even to add to this one and make a bigger set. Probably will in the future. For now I think I will just buy new pads.

Feature:
The package I recieved came with everything needed to play except a seat,headphones, and a bass pedal. Drumsticks were included. The features of the product itself were very impressive with very comfortable playing pads and they are also very very responsive.

Quality:
This product is very durable and very reliable to work at full throttle whenever you need it to. The quality is very good with good pads and very good quality hardware. It seems like it will last a LONG TIME for me.....depending on how hard I play it. So far, it has taken all the hard playing of mine very well.

Value:
This product is absoutly a huge deal for it's price. This set can do so many things that the sets that costs in the thousands can do. IT IS A STEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Desirability:
The look of the set just begs you to play it all day long. The sleek black color of most of the set combined with the white color of the pads are a very appealing match and they make ANY room look WAY BETTER!!!!

Sound:
There are many different sounds to choose from for EVERY playing style that you can imagine.

Ease of Use:
The sound of the set is amazing and it provides you with a WIDE assortment of sounds for every single pad and cymbal. The manuel is very clear and the assembally manuel was very easy to follow.

Support:
I bought from ZZOUNDS so you know it was awesome!!! They helped me with ALL of my questions very quickly and the shipping was a very pleasing experience as well.

Overall:
I expect to be satisfied with this product for at least another 5 years and when i have more money and its time to buy another one i think i will go for a higher priced Roland electric set but until then i now that my AMAZING DM5 PRO KIT WILL GIVE ME ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING THAT I NEED AND MORE!!
