Fun

Only bought it because I’ve wanted one for ages and was doing a big order, but it’s a bit tacky feeling and cheap, it’s a toy but still fun

While definitely more a toy than an instrument, I can't deny it's incredibly fun to play around with and try make something semi coherent. A hit at parties and with kids. Very unique sound with different pitch and volume settings for variety. Easy to pick up and get used to quickly. Also makes a great conversation piece or desk ornament due to the unique and eye catching cute design.

Absolute classique

Should be featured in all orchestras in my opinion. Don't get why I haven't seen any. Would love to see a concert just full of these.

Really fun to use and surprising how much you can play with it.

Nice crazy weirdness

It's a toy, and it's not a toy.

It's weird, fun and you can't explain why you like it.

And it is one of a kind for sure.

Good fun

I got one to try it out.

The sound is worse than I imagined, and while this is part of the charm, it is a bit rough on the ears.

This small variant has the notes far too close together, especially on the second part of the instrument neck, so it is quite difficult to play.

I would have likely preferred fewer notes with nore space between them.

About 2.5 octaves range - a single octave would have been more playable.

The neck of the instrument has some flex and feels like it will snap as I try to use it. The strip on which you play also takes significantly more pressure to play than expected.

Discharges pretty easy.

If you forget to turn it off it will discharge in on or two days...

Disappointed...

Te border of plastic were you move the finger has small dents and the neck seems fragile.
