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!!

"DM5! Is it worth it? I think so."

Feature:
kit came with everything i needed to set up completely with the exception of the kick pedal, which, for a seasoned musician, you would want to use your own anyway. hat pedal is nice. there is NOT a smooth transition from closed to open hats!!! i haven't figured that one out yet.

Quality:
i like the idea that this kit is $599. and it has the quality that it does. i haven't owned it long enough to tell you how well it would hold up to the rigors of the road and because i use it just as a practice kit, it could last forever, maybe.

Value:
I have over $4000 invested in my Roland V-Tour, so yes $599 is justifiable.

Desirability:
This is just a practice piece for me.

Sound:
I bought this just for practice at home when not gigging. I use the V-Tour from Roland as my primary effects kit along side acoustic drums. This is a great practice kit, but i guess with some fine tuning could be ok for live situations. the hats took some work to get used to and would cut in and out, but i think i tuned it enough so they are working ok now. pretty easy to set up. overall, i rate it an 8 out of 10.

Ease of Use:
If you are a beginner with electric kits, read the manual! If you are seasoned, it should be pretty easy to figure out.

Support:
Haven't had to use support.

Overall:
If you're thinking about buying the DM5 PRO KIT, go ahead!!! It's worth the mere $599 for a kit like this. AGAIN, i use mine for practice purposes only and don't endorse this product for anything else.
