Review: It arrived quickly in good packaging and great condition - It arrived quickly in good packaging and great condition, already tuned! It sounds lovely and is fun to play around with even though I don't have any musical training. The stickers & tuning hammer are nice conveniences, bit tricky to put the stickers on but I figured it out. The sound is very soothing and yet quiet enough to play behind a closed door without bothering others, so it's a great instrument if you have roommates or want to play at night. The craftsmanship is also beautiful, I like the sun design, it's surprisingly comfortable to hold (I've got small hands), and I was also surprised how pretty & smooth the wood grain is. I'm glad I got this for my first kalimba. I definitely recommend it.
Review: If you're searching reviews for the best kalimba, this is the one!! - If you are at all curious about these things, you will love this Kalimba/thumb piano!! Very good quality with a beautifully satisfying sound. If you're a beginner, this is the one. If you're buying for a kid (excellent Christmas present), this is the one. In both circumstances, go with the 10 key. These are so well priced that you can always graduate to the 17 key later. I don't think the product description mentions, but it also comes with a booklet that has generic instructions on how to play the kalimba (you literally just flick it with your thumbs, that's it) and, this is the best part, instructions to play a few simple songs. Our favorite is "You Are My Sunshine." It's crazy soothing both to hear and to play. Buy it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So fun to play- beautiful sounds
*by P***I on February 2, 2019*

Beautiful Kalimba! It’s really great quality and I love the little sun pattern in the middle. It came already tuned, and with everything the description said it includes. My only fault with it is that the littlest prongs to the far left and far right don’t sound as clear as the others, but to me it’s not a big deal as the rest of the kalimba is perfect- also I think it’s probably common throughout this type of instrument. But overall, if you’re looking for a kalimba, I definitely recommend this one!
