This is probably the cheapest way to get a decent 3.5 octave xylophone. It sounds quite nice, don't use the included mallets. If you're not going to perform, this is all you need. I even practiced 4 mallet solos on this. If it gets better at this price point, (it doesn't) it's not by much. I have even dropped it down the stairs in the case (by accident) and it damaged the stairs more than the instrument. Just buy some medium-soft/soft mallets.

I bought the xylophone for my son just starting percussion lessons. I called customer service with questions about the product. The person I spoke with was patient, kind, and knowledgeable. The instrument was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition.

I ordered this as a student rental, but it's also really suitable for professionals who need a portable xylophone. As other reviews mentioned, the lack of resonators change the sound a bit, but the portability more than makes up for it - and let's be honest, most audiences wouldn't know the difference. One issue worth knowing (and why I gave it 4 out of 5): my instrument came with a free pair of brass mallets, which are completely inappropriate to the instrument and will damage the rosewood, which is an expensive and somewhat rare wood. It bugs me that a mallet that would damage the instrument was included. So if you are new to mallet percussion, DO NOT USE THE INCLUDED MALLETS - they will sound horrible and damage a great instrument. Look into purchasing mallets by reputable companies (Innovative, Encore, Vic Firth, etc.) that are made for the xylophone.

I decided to give this xylophone a try in spite of the not so great picture. I needed a full sized xylophone that is portable and didn't have a lot of $$ to spend on it. It is full sized and the rosewood bars do look much better than they do in the photo. The sound is mixed. For some reason they lined the lower box with a felt-like material which really effects the resonance of the bars, especially in the lower octave and a half. While the top part of the xylophone sounds good for a xylo-in-a-box, the lower octave and a half sounds toy-like. I'm going to try to remove the felt to see if it improves the tone quality of the lower notes. I may also try to remove the frame from the box (it's attached) and see how that improves the sound. For the money, it is a decent instrument for a high school, college, or as a frequently moved instrument. It also gives the auditioning percussionist a full sized instrument to practice on at a reasonable price.(Not a choice you often get with a xylo-in-a-box). For a professional who needs a high quality sound, you'd be better off shelling out the extra $$ for a regular xylo. It's a good base product, and with some tweaking of the box and suspension system they could make it an even better product. I'll update after I futz with it a bit.

Excellent low-cost option xylophone

I bought this xylophone with a focus on portability. Based on it's physical dimensions, this instrument is a good size for carrying by hand and in a smaller car. That's not to say it doesn't have some weight. For it's size, it is quite solid and has a professional heft about it that shows up in the frame and bar mounts. The case lid is as solid as the body. The negatives about the instrument is the almost total lack of resonance, which is okay for the upper octaves but is missed somewhat in the lower octave. The bars are completely uniform in width and have a fairly good tone. The instrument's intonation is very good. The Wang portable xylophone is the only xylophone on the market that I saw (before making this purchase), particularly at this price point, that meets my requirements for portability and quality.
