As a former drummer, when my wife told me she bought a "roll up" drum pad for our son... I was skeptical. After it came... I was surprised.
It has a high-hat pedal and a kick drum pedal – wasn't expecting that. It's got a few different drum kit sound banks – wasn't expecting that. It's got a rather loud speaker (and support for headphones) – wasn't expecting that. It has MIDI support if you want to hook it up to a computer to control a software drum kit – wasn't expecting that. It also came with sticks and headphones, which was a nice bonus.
Surprisingly, this unit can keep up with some complex drum patterns. It's a ton of fun. Practically speaking, it's an awesome introduction to drumming for kids or adults. Since it has both a high hat and kick pedal, you can actually learn all your coordination and basic drum patterns and then, after you're showing promise, "upgrade" to a real set when you're ready.
One feature I appreciated is the button on the unit called "special." It swaps the high hat and snare drum locations to make it easier to drum if you're used to a more traditional drum setup where you'd play the high hat with your right arm.
A couple things to just be aware of... First off, it's not a "professional" drum kit. That should be obvious, but it's worth stating. In other words, it doesn't vary the sound depending on where you hit the pad, or play louder or softer depending on the impact velocity. Also, the drum sounds sound good for what it is, but don't expect to be able to record these and have it sound like a real kit. But again, I highly doubt that's why you're buying this.
All in all, for children or for adults exploring drumming for the first time, it's very worth the money. I've had as much fun playing with it as my son. I can almost assure you you'll have a blast.
