  • Perfect flute for beginner-intermediate students!
Size: Closed Hole Color: Black
I am an advanced (but not professional) flute player with over 25 years of experience. For reference purposes, I own a $2500 dollar Pearl open hole/b-foot flute, and a $600 Yamaha student flute. I honestly bought this Mendini simply for the cool black color. Reviews are mixed, but it was cheap and had a return policy which eliminated any concerns about wasting money on a piece of junk. I had low expectations for quality playability, but I am more than pleasantly surprised! The pros: This Mendini has a beautiful, clear, and consistent tone across it's entire range. The high register is crisp, clean, and effortlessly responsive, which is unusual in cheaper flutes. It has offset G keys (easier to reach with left ring finger), and a split E mechanism (makes high E - a notoriously difficult note in the flute world - easier to play and control). These are features that usually drive up the price of student and professional models by a few hundred dollars. The key pads are decent quality with no leaks, no airy sound, and no stickiness. I daresay the Mendini surpasses the performance of my Yamaha, and comes decently close to my Pearl. This flute is perfect for a beginner through intermediate/early advanced player, and will carry a student through middle and high school bands, orchestras, marching band, ensembles, and chambers. It would also be great for a casual hobbyist or adult learner. The case is durable and functional, and the flute fits snugly with no wiggling (but it's tacky as heck...see cons below). The accessories are a nice addition, and would cost about $40+ to buy separately if they weren't included. The colors are a cool option. I LOVE the black body with silver keys. It looks unique, but still respectable. The cons: The black body color is a plastic-like coating which might peel right off if scratched or damaged (think shrink-wrap). The lip plate is nickel, which will probably cause a bruise-like stain under my lower lip after repetitive use and exposure to sweat/moisture - don't worry, this cleans off easily with an alcohol or baby wipe, and can be prevented by applying a layer of clear nail polish or tape to the lip plate. The case that is included has a massive and tacky logo embroidered on the front, and the zip pouch is too tight to hold the cleaning rod, cloths, and stand that is included. These cons are purely aesthetic, have easy fixes, and don't impact the sound quality of the instrument. I stand by my 5 star rating. For less than $100, this flute far exceeded my expectations. It's perfect if you have a kid interested in playing, but don't want to invest a lot of money in case they lose interest, and it's cheaper than rental programs. I would also recommend this flute for marching band players because it's cheap enough to not worry about damage from weather, being set down in the grass/dirt, and from drops or collisions. It would be great to have as a reliable back-up flute to keep on hand in case your main instrument is in the shop for repairs. Ever drop your flute 2 days before the recital, and have to watch as your rival plays the solo you practiced all semester?!?!...Never again! In my opinion, the nay-sayers that gave negative reviews fall into one of 3 categories: Elitist flute snobs expecting the quality of a $14,000 Nagahara or custom Powell for 75 bucks, poor players, or someone who received a genuinely defective instrument. "It doesn't play in tune" is not a defect, its a skill issue - adjust the headjoint and correct your lip position like all flautists have to do! LOL. ... show more

  • Surprisingly good for the price
Size: Closed Hole Color: Pink
Sounds good! It comes properly intonated, comes with everything you need to begin playing flute and care for it, and it's basically ready to play right out of the box. The only issue I've had is with the foot joint being difficult to connect and remove from the body. But every time I put it together and take apart it gets easier to do so. ... show more

  • Exactly what my child wanted
Size: Closed Hole Color: Nickel Plated
My child wanted to play the flute this year in school. I am so glad we did not have to rent it. The price and the product were awesome. Not to mention fast and easy delivery.

  • Great deal!
Size: Closed Hole Color: Sky Blue
I am an adult new to the flute. It has been fun to learn with this blue beauty. My only complaint is that the instruction book is tiny! I think it’s a good instrument to learn on.

  • As a home hobby player I'm okay with the purchase
Size: Closed Hole Color: Sky Blue
I'm basically a home hobby woodwind player. I've played name brand instruments back in school and have owned a few. I've also bought a number of bargain basement type woodwind instruments on Amazon and other sites, probably too many in retrospect. A few of the bargain instruments have been fair enough. A few have been unsatisfactory for a new student in my opinion. I bought this Mendini sky blue flute maybe 5 years ago now on Amazon and I have enjoyed playing it. I should say because I have a number of instruments I haven't played it all that much - maybe nearing the equivalent of one semester of elementary school band, if that. The tone quality is fair enough and it plays fairly well in tune for me. Over time even at my less than advanced level of playing I can notice overall better quality from the name brand instruments, but this Mendini flute could seem fairly close early on.. As playing time has added up on the Mendini I notice more weight/pressure from the fingers is required on the keys below G to get a fairly satisfactory sound. That could be a deal breaker. I can't recall how soon after purchase I noticed that issue, but I'd guess less time than the equivalent of a full semester of school band. I suppose an adjustment might help but I'm not going to take this flute to the shop. If I decide it's no longer in any kind of practical playing condition, at that point it's basically scrap metal or maybe something to practice repairs on. I'd say a used name brand in good repair would be a better option than a new bargain brand if budget allows. Overall I'm okay with the one time purchase. I'd say one of these flutes, if received in the same playable condition as the one I received was, would work for beginning band for a while. If the student could navigate/tolerate the adjustment issues I mentioned perhaps the flute could work for a couple of semesters or more. Bottom line I can't strongly recommend this flute for a student, certainly not long term. And even for just a hobby player at the current price it's perhaps a maybe. I'm giving it 4 stars because it has been a fun item for me and is still working out for my hobby playing. I will say shop around even on Amazon because the prices seem to vary quite a bit from even week to week. At any rate good luck and happy music making! ... show more
