2 out of 5 stars tuneless xylophone   August 20, 2008
When we ordered this set we were especially excited about the xylophone, which turned out to be shoddily made and completely out of tune. Don't order this set if you want to make music with it, or if you're expecting quality workmanship. On the plus side, there are a variety of noises to be made and the baby seems to like it well enough.


5 out of 5 stars Melissa and Doug deluxe band set   August 3, 2008
My grandaughter recieved this on her 4th birthday. There were so many instruments to try out that she played with it for quite a long time. These are well made instruments and lots of fun.


5 out of 5 stars Great fun for teaching music and group play   July 19, 2008
My 2-year-old loves this set. We broke it out for her when she started watching Baby Einstein's Meet the Orchestra. She likes to look for and play the instrument from this set that is being played in the video. Well made, safe, and lots of fun!


5 out of 5 stars We love this!   May 7, 2008
My 16 month old granddaughter loves music and this band set has many items that she can use by herself. She loves to walk through the house making music / noise. The only negative about this set is the nice wooden box that it comes in... it would be great for an older child but she has fallen over it a few times so we have found a different place to keep the instruments for now.


3 out of 5 stars Great...for the price   April 28, 2008

This is a good product for the price (I bought it on sale for $20), but I was disappointed by the quality after having purchased and enjoyed Melissa and Doug 60-Piece Standard Unit Blocks. About half the set is wooden sticks and clackers, which make a lot of great noise but won't hold your little one's interest for very long. The kazoo is marginal, with ours having rough, unfinished surfaces I wouldn't let near a toddler's mouth. The xylophone is pretty durable, but since it's made of wood it doesn't have any clarity of sound. The triangle and harmonica are both metal and give good, clear sounds. Overall, I think this set is fine to let a toddler bang on, but if you want quality/durability, or if you have an older child who truly enjoys music instead of just making noise, I would invest in a better product.
