Millenium MPS-850 E-Drum Set 1-star Reviews

Wasted $$$

If you're a complete beginner to drumming- this is probably okay. But if you're an experienced drummer looking for a practice kit to do any amount of substantial drumming on- this is not it. The sound module is awful, the hi-hat stand works half the time, the mesh pads are okay but above all the build quality is HORRENDOUS. The rim around the snare drum is already torn apart from doing rimshots, the snare can barely stay in place without constantly having to re-tighten it, the ENTIRE frame is constantly being loosened and having to be re-adjusted and re-tightened- I can't even RESELL this because of how bad the kit has gotten from this cheapo hardware. Just absolutely frustrated. Half a thousand dollars down the drain.

Dead out of the box

Wrong power supply for USA.

Substitute p/s will not power it up.

Cust support is not helpful.

Impossible to just box it up and send it back. It's packaged like a puzzle with 13 boxes. Complete waste of money at this point. bad 1st impression of this company.

Unfortunate Experience

Unfortunately, I didn't have a very good experience with this drum kit and have had to return it.

I was in high hopes with this kit after seeing video demos on YouTube, as well as demos on this site as well, however didn't have any of that once it arrived.

The kit itself once setup looks great, and feels great mesh-wise, however, I was sent the wrong part for the snare drum which was a sign straight away, and the hi-hat, despite setting it up correctly multiple times, also was not working at all.

The sound, even on max volume I could barely hear it through any headphones. I had to chuck it through my 4x12 Marshall Amp to be able to actually hear it, would not work with anything else.

For whatever reason on random kits as well, it would keep playing different sounds on the kick drum, including on the "Metal" kit, it would keep adding on this cheery-go-lucky sound effect as well, which just made it sound awful for what would be a "Metal" kit.

The only kit I actually liked was the Marimba one... it's the only one that actually sounded good in my opinion, and that's saying something for what should be a drum kit.

So to conclude, I might've just had a dodgy kit, but in my opinion it was definitely not worth the wait and excitement, and definitely not worth the £529.
