1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money., June 4, 2009
= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Deluxe Beginner Band Set (Toy)
The whole set looks and feels unfinished. The wood is rough and uncured.
Xylophone is totally useless. Keys are made of wood. It hardly makes any sound and when it does it sounds very off-key.
Rattlers and harmonica work fine. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it.

This review is from: Melissa & Doug Deluxe Beginner Band Set (Toy)
My 18 month old loves this set! He isn't able to use the kazoo or harmonica yet, but he loves play the xylophone and shake the tamborine while I play the harmonica. It's fun for the whole family.

When I first opened the package I thought it was a little strange that the xylophone is all wood(I was expecting metal bars. It took a little while to get used to the sound of the wooden bars compared with metal. My only complaint is that some of the paint has chipped off of the green bar after a couple weeks of use. Otherwise a great way to introduce your child to the world of instrumental music!

1.0 out of 5 stars Melissa and Doug Beginner Band Set, March 22, 2010

This review is from: Melissa & Doug Deluxe Beginner Band Set (Toy)
I don't write reviews very often but had to because Melissa and Doug thoroughly disappoint me with this chinzy band set. Like another reviewer stated, the wood is unfinished and rough. The Kazoo doesn't work at all and the xylophone hardly makes any noise. I could have gotten a much better set at Target. Way disappointing. I am shocked too because normally Melissa and Doug make very good products.
