"Well built shells"
The shells are well built, solid. The tom tom holder has an issue. The base of the tom mount that is installed on the kick has a plastic piece inserted in it. It rattles like hell when you strike either of the toms . It took me 2 hours to find out where it was coming from. I checked all the screws, everything on all drums. With a rubber mallet I lightly tapped the base of the holder on the kick, and there it was. It all came down to this round plastic piece that has a lot of play in it. It was cracked as well from factory install. I am waiting on mapex for the part. If it still rattles I will have to wrap tape around it so it stops the rattle. Bad design, good sounding drums.
Sound
Good, change the heads to 2 ply.
Features
Good for Rock and contemporary music
Ease of Use
Hands down, you can use this kit on gigs. Change the heads, use moon gels and it sounds like a maple kit. The heads are everything.
Quality
Hardware is average, Handle with care. Use The kick pedal to practice only.

It should sell in the 500.00 range, not over 600.00
