Quality:
quality wise i was in a sense disappointed. in about 3 months it began to rust a lot. I don't hit very hard but after about 6 months it got its first crack.

Value:
if you are under a tight budget i would suggest this but if you can afford something better., dont get it

Sound:
it sounds ok. not proffesional, only for begginers i would suggest it.

Well i own it and jam on it every day. i love the way sabian makes cymbals that don't warp or break easily.

Feature:
bell is nice, very bright

Quality:
takes some punishment. only smudges after 9 months of hard playing BUT this is a beginner cymbal. using it has made me appreciate better, more expensive cymbals. recommended for beginners, for veterans, its time to treat yourself to a better crash.

Value:
good price for beginners

Desirability:
looks just like a regular cymbal, sounds mediocre to the experienced drummer

Sound:
sounds like glass breaking

Support:
ive never had to use support
