Pulse 5-piece Junior Drum Set  

Upon pulling this kit out of the box, it was clear to me that it was cheaply built. It didn't quite have the feel of a toy drum kit, but neither was it a solid instrument. The tone of the drums, once tuned, was terrible, and the hardware extraordinarily flimsy. One piece even arrived broken--a weld on the drum pedal had broken in transit. That was enough for me to send the whole kit back and start a new search. Anyone looking for a quality junior drum kit should check out both PDP, which is DW's junior kit, or Ludwig. I went with Ludwig, and am pleased with the quality of the hardware and tone of the drums (both great, for a junior kit).

For what it's worth, I'm a drummer who plays a custom built kit (built by George Jacobs in San Francisco) as well as a Yamaha DTXtreme (the original). Trust me, the Pulse kit is not worth even $50.

3 Toms, a snare and a bass drum. Two cymbals with decent stands.  Real wood shells, Nice nickle finishes.

The Drum Heads are not the greatest and the cymbals are very thin, but it is a good priced set for what it is... a starter drumset for children.  I put some painters tape on the heads to make them last longer and to help with dampening a bit. 

Good value.  Try to get it on sale.

One could spend a lot more on a set that doesn't fit their child or is not as good of quality.  The set up is pretty easy if you know what you are doing. (there are no instructions)  If you need help, there is loads of stuff on the internet to steer you in the right direction. Putting on the drum head and tightening it down is like putting on a tire.  Go across the head,not around it.  Turn a little bit at a time.  Tap around the head with a stick about 3 or so inches in from the edge as you turn the drum key.  Be patient and make the head that you want to hit a tighter than the other side.

It is a great set with everything!!!

Sturdy and well made.

We were so excited to find this set within the price we wanted to pay.

My son who recieved the set loves it and so do all the other kids in our family.

My only issue with the set is that there was a lot of assembly with no directions. It is a good thing I am mechanically minded but it still took me 1 and 1/2 hours to put the set together.

This is a complete set.Everything your little drummer will need to get started.

This set is well built.i was amazed at the quality of the hardware.Very sturdy cymbol and hi-hat stands.My band practices at my house,so i compared it to our drummer's set.Same constuction components.This is not a toy that will fall apart in a month.This set comes with everything you need,even a set of sticks.I got this set for my grandkids to play on.I'm sure this set will hold up to give all of them a chance to start drumming.

Bought this from mf stupid deal of the day at a price i couldn't pass up.Deffinitely worth the money.

This is a nice looking set.The only negative is there are no instructions.The assembly isn't hard,but it would be nice to have the assurance that you're doing it right.

i have been a drum tech for some of the biggest rock bands,i bought this set for my 1 yr old daughter,  it was a great buy the set looks great (wind red). drums and drums heads are good quialty,hardware is up to par. this kit  last will last her till she 10+.

this drum kit is big size for a jr kit so i think it a great buy for a young beginner that will last

along time.and for parents not have to buy a second kit for a long while.

GREAT PRICE FOR A GOOD WELL MADE JR KIT.
