Feature:
The hardware always performed as advertised for 14 years of playing and moving and bouncing around in the back of my pickup. In the real world, its how well the stuff holds up on the road AND on stage. These drums are the real deal.
Quality:
14 years gives you a pretty good sense of whether or not its a good product. It isn't - Pearl drums are great products!
Value:
Plays great, sounds great, holds up like a tank - can it get better than this?
Desirability:
It is a good looking set that will look good in 10 or 15 years. The finish held up well and that sound! It isn't the most stunning drum set on the market - but it may well be the best.
Sound:
I had my Export set for 14 years and then I donated it to the local school district. It sounded and played terrific. To my ears, almost nothing beats its sound (as long as you use decent heads)...
Support:
Never needed any support - never called the factory.
Overall:
All in all, it really doesn't get any better than this. Give this set a listen!
