Pros & Cons
Pros
My only quam is the checkered strap. I love that this uke comes with aquila strings, as well as an extra set of aquila strings. The uke itself looks good, pretty mahogany color.
Great value for money. Comes with a chord chart and a quick start booklet. Cleaning cloth is nice, but the booklet and chord chart are.
The case is very nice. Not a flimsy gig bag, but a nice tweed padded case. It does what it needs to when carrying and storing my uke.
Action is on the high side at 4mm at the 12th fret. Now that i see that the strap feeds behind the neck, the pin placement makes much more sense.
Cons
The workmanship is not exquisite as stated. Despite the cost, junk is junk. I let the seller know, but obviously returned it.
Save your money and get a more robustly designed uke. It irks me that the potentially more gullible entry-level customers at whom this uke is marketed are being misled. The action on the 8 string is nearly impossible for someone who is quite practiced... Read More
The ukulele has a sickening smell from inside. Red stain is slopped up the sides of the somewhat dried out fretboard. There were also sharp edges to some of the fret wires.

Highlights
Quality
I cant say enough how happy i am with the quality of this ukulele
Not only is it beautifully made the sound quality is superb
Aklot needs to pay better attention to quality control
However if i was the quality control person at aklot i would not allow an instrument like this to be shipped out without those ... Read More
Price
This uke at this price is a steal
Shipping
I had an issue with my first shipment so they quickly got another on the way to me and my issue was solved fast and efficiently
Packaging/appearance
Its packaging was twice as large as the size of the product but it was very stable and clean compared to ali express and coupang
Delivery was fast as most people expect and the packaging was more than adequate to avoid any damages in shipping
What you get in the booklet and chord chart give you music theory
Competitiveness
Overall if youre wanting an 8string uke you cant get a better price for a wellmade instrument
This uke does it and i recommend aklot ukuleles for any beginner
