"Awesome set for peanuts!"
Feature:
The hardware is pretty flimsy. You'll notice small hex nuts kinda flying everywhere when you start pounding. Make sure everything is good and tight before you try and play this kit. Also, it's somewhat difficult to position the toms as there is no kick drum mounts, only the stands, for the toms. However, the floating ring design for the mounted toms gives you a pretty good angle range. Personally, I couldn't find a good spot that made it comfortable for me to play the mounted toms - but I'm 6'4..lol. May be easier for shorter folks - not sure.

Quality:
I wouldn't say they are cheaply made - but they are cheaply made. Again, I think this is more of a beginners kit. If you're a 15 - 21 year old that just jams then you'll love this kit. If you're a pro (15+ years for me) then the quality of the wood and hardware is going to disappoint you.

Value:
There is no way you'll get a set of this quality from any other manufacturer for this price.

Desirability:
Now, the biggest thing about this set is "sex appeal". It just looks amazing - especially when you wrap cymbals around it. It's almost like a lambo - it just looks fast sitting still.

Sound:
First off, immediately replace the stock heads! I did with evans ebony hydraulics and it helped a TON. However, the kicks are hard to get punch out of. You get more of a thud, no matter how you tune. Overall, the set sounds great, but could be a bit brighter.

Ease of Use:
You can pretty much pull these out of the box and go at it if sound isn't all that important. If you're looking for a great set, cheap, then this is definitely the set for you.

Support:
I'll give a 10 because I haven't had to call them, but have heard nothing but great things about their support.

Overall:
I think I'll keep this kit around for quite a while. Though it's not the greatest thing ever, for what I paid for it, you just can't beat it. It's more of a workhorse kit that you can beat to death and it will take all of it and more. However, I won't be putting it in my sound booth at the studio anytime soon.

Style of Music: Heavy

"Great sounding drums for the price but very bad hardware."
Feature:
The drums and mounts are nice but the hardware sucks. The pedals are cheap with really weak beaters and springs. Already had a spring break and a beater shaft bend.

Quality:
etc...

Value:
Even though I have plenty to say about the hardware the drums are well worth it. They should either leave the hardware out or improve it.

Desirability:
I've been wanting one since the first it.

Sound:
For being kinda crappy wood they sound really nice once you change all the heads (and I mean ALL!) I'm a sound guy of 10 years (drummer of 20) and the drummer for Thor is on stage using mine right now. The kit has new heads and great mics on it. I could not be more pleased with the sound. Awsome attack, full lows, right amount of overtone. Beautiful! PS. I'm not some hack fighing with a piece of crap "Mackie" board. I work on pro consoles with 40+ channels and have years of house and touring experience.

Ease of Use:
Like I said before. NEW HEADS! If you do that they tune up really nice, and once again don't bother with the hardware.

Support:
Haven't called but I hear they're right on it.

Overall:
So once again (for the price) the drums and mounts are great, but don't bother with the other hardware. I would give the drums a 10 (once again for the price and I've been playing for 20 years) but I have to give an 8 for wasting my time with the crappy hardware. I now own 4 kits. A tama, a premier, a DW, and this ddrum diablo death punx. As you can see I have plenty to put it up against and it truly stands up.

Style of Music: I play alot of styles. This is drumkit #4 that I own but this one is for metal.
