    • Affordable music therapy
Color: Wood Size: 17 Keys
Easy to play and lots of fun. I mostly just bang around instead of playing actual songs. I find the sounds to be soothing and calming. Finally my thumbs have a higher purpose, to make beautiful music.

    • The Best Kalimba deal on Amazon.com
Color: Wood Size: 17 Keys
Great for a beatmaker: So I ordered this Kalimba after I saw a SP-404 mk2 beatmaker use one in the process of creating a song. I thought it was pretty cool, so I decided to get one. This one comes with a lot for the price. As others mentioned in their reviews, you get a bag for it, a cleaning cloth, a tuning hammer, finger guards, and some stickers to help you differentiate the keys. It's a great deal for this full setup and I'm very happy with my purchase. I downloaded the tuner app for android and I can confirm that the unit comes in perfect tune out of the box. If you ever need to re-tune it, you have the hammer to do so. The wood on the unit feels very high quality, and it sounds great. I prefer to use it with the finger guards, because I feel like I get a better sound out of it that way. The sounds sound clearer to me using the guards. You don't have to do that though if you don't want, and can just use your bare fingers. All in all, this Kalimba feels well put together and for the price you can't go wrong for all you're getting with it. I highly recommend you grab this unit if you're even remotely interested in playing a Kalimba. At $23, you can't beat it. I'd give it 10 stars if I could! ... show more

    • Everyone needs a Kalimba !
Color: Wood Size: 17 Keys
This instrument is so fun ! It comes with a little song book with easy beginner tunes like happy birthday and instructions. Price was reasonable. The quality is fabulous ! The wood is polished and smooth. It comes a with a tuning hammer, some fingers guards and a little travel bag. The sound this Kalimba makes is so soothing. It’s fun to just sit on the couch while you’re watching tv and pluck away. ... show more

    • Beautiful instrument, kids love it, and the noise is pleasing, even when they're learning.

Review Image by KM KM
This is a wonderful & affordable instrument. My grandson (9) wanted to learn to play music, so I got this for myself, so he wouldn't be tempted to take it home & drive his parents nuts with the noise. No worries, this plays a lovely sound (almost like a Harp), & depending on how hard you strum it, it can be very quiet, too, while learning. He fell in LOVE with it, & asked repeatedly for one for his birthday. I actually liked it a lot, too, so I did get him one for his birthday, later this month. I know he's gonna love it, & this is the kind of thing that can grow with him. If he learns to actually play it, he can keep using it for life, vs one of those awful flute things they give kids, that drive every dog in the neighborhood insane, as well as the people. It comes very well packaged, had a hammer included to tune it, & some stickers to help you tell what note each key is supposed to be. The keys are embossed with their notes, but it's very hard to see, unless you hold it just so in the light. I put the stickers on mine, until I get the hang of it. It also includes 2 thumb guards for you to start. It's played with thumbs only, so you'll want to use those, at least until you can grow out your thumbnails. I'm nearly there growing mine out, and it's a lot easier to play with natural nails, instead of silicone guards or thumb picks. The keys are tightly packed, easy to accidentally bump the next key while you play a note, but once my nails grow out a bit more, I expect that to get a lot better. Tuning was pretty easy, as there are online sites that listen to you play the note, & tell you when you have it right. The site I found showed you if the note was high or low, so you just use the hammer to tap it up or down til you get the right pitch. Very gently tap it up if the note is too low, & visa versa. Keep checking with the online tuner, as you can actually end up with a different note, if you tap too much. The box it came with is perfect, so I decorated both boxes. Pictures shown, because these Kalimbas are lovely, but fragile if dropped. Keeping the box, & making it pretty, ensures it will be put away, each time, not left knocking around the bedroom. Both mine were in perfect condition upon arrival, & easily tuned. I love them. ... show more

    • Good except highest and lowest notes
Color: Wood Size: 17 Keys
Why did you pick this product vs others?: Addicting and pleasant sounding - liked the song book - docking a star because they are not high and low notes don’t really work.
