This drum is great.  I am always skeptical about products with lots of 5 star reviews, but it deserves it.  The sound is clear and the sticks that come with it are perfect for my 3 year old.  I also like that the drum is a bit on the heavy side, so it's hard for her to accidentally tip it over when she invariably gets up and sprints around.  My only gripe is a minor one; the design wrapped around the drum has a noticeable seam.  I wish it were tiled seamlessly.  Not enough to warrant a star off though, the product is great and I am totally happy with it.
