Evans RF-12D Practice Pad

Great

Classic pad. Probably eternal. I have some stains on mine, which I don't know if I'll be able to remove, but maybe I shouldn't be spilling my drinks all over my pads. Don't stain yours and you'll have something perfect for the rest of your life. Enjoy!

No compeition

These are amazing.

I use the grey ('bouncy') side a lot and the black ('dead') side less. But you can't really beat Evans. Not the cheapest, but worth it. The are solid, well made and emulate a tight snare brilliantly.

Worth paying more for better feel

I used this pad as my first pad because of its price and it served me well. However, it is really just too bouncy and unrealistic to simulate a snare drum (even at the highest tuning). I would recommend maybe to beginners but overall I would recommend paying a bit extra for a more realistic pad.

Pretty loud

Pretty loud to play. Though, very comfortable surface. I like meinl one over it.

The best I have used so far

First of all the quality of this product is at par no doubt about it. It is also very comfortable to play especially the softer side. It really helped me improve speed on my left hand which was slower.

The hard side is good as well but I prefer the softer one as it feels very close to hitting on drums.

Evans Practise pad

I was glad I purchased this double sided Evans practise pad as the automatic bounce is similar to a tight snare and great I can practise my rudiments at home without disturbing anyone.

Unbreakable

Works great. Does not feel exactly like the real deal, but good enough.

Quality wise it will las a lifetime.

Excellent

As expected from Evans. Excellet practice pad. A bit heavy, but sturdy.

Very good practice pad

It's a very good pad, very responsive and big enough to practice for some time

Very Practical

Simple device that takes up little space, is sturdy and quite durable. A useful tool for home, in room practice and when you want to avoid excessive noise. Recommended.
