Pros & Cons
Pros
A complete overhaul for a haynes or powell is currently about $1200. For a beginner, who might not stick with the instrument, that's an important consideration. It plays very easily in all three octaves, which is also important.
It's my niece first time in band and she just adore it. It plays and sounds better than the rental. I'm sure i'll be buying a higher quality flute if she decides to continue into high school, but for beginner band it's perfect.
Cons
Worked awesome until it got dented inside the case jn my daughter's backpack. I am a self taught flutist so it was difficult for me to figure out how to get this in tune.
Highlights
Quality
Overall we are very happy with the purchase
Cant believe the quality for the price
I was expecting a very low quality instrument
For a beginner who might not stick with the instrument thats an important consideration
Price
It works great and its price is just great for a beginner like me
The price was right and the music teacher was happy with it for beginner purposes
One of my students received it for christmas and i was very skeptical when i found out the price her parents paid
So it was worth the price given the doubts
Shipping
Shipping was fine and it was well packed
Competitiveness
If this gets us through the few years of middle school it will have been more than worth the cost
It doesnt measure up to a powell but it costs more than 100 times less
