Handpan Drum 22inch in D Kurd Minor with handpan stand, handpan case, durable mallets and dust-free cloth (Gold 11 notes, 432HZ)

Was hesitant based on some of the reviews, I decided to go with the 440hz model as I wanted the best sound.It’s well made, really loud with just my hands, great tone, in tune, and you can’t beat the price.

My handpan was delivered very well packed and the tone is pretty good. However it is sold as a "Purple Performer" and the photos show a very nice light purple handpan, but what was delivered was very dark blue, almost black without any hint of purple.With so many options for sale on Amazon the point of ordering this one was to get a purple hand-pan - if I wanted an indeterminate almost black version of blue I could have bought a different one.Not impressed at all

I have been wanting a handpan for a few years and I recently thought to check & see if any were on here for sale and Yes! I can't afford the $2k ones right now but I'm teaching myself so maybe one day I can buy this one has a BEAUTIFUL and deep tone (I love the D minor anyway lol) and all the other notes are very harmonious!!! Me and my kids all love to play with it and make the most awesome sounds with it!! Sounds travels far too!! Neighbors can hear too when we use the rubber mallets lol it's too sharp for me but I use my hands and I'm so happy with my purchase!!! Love the purple/blue colors that changes colors in the light depending on which way you look at it it might look blue almost black then go up closer and it's more purple! 💜 Thanks so much!!!!! We love it!!!!!

The instrument that was shipped to me came thickly coated in some type of machine oil. Reeked to high heavens. So first thing I did was clean it thoroughly with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. Removed the oil and smell completely. Then I messed around with it. Pretty easy to produce notes, which were not in tune on the tuner (very flat), but they were all tuned okay relative to the other notes on this pan. So unless you're playing with others, you'll be okay. The notes have a tinny, metallic sound. Not rich and full. So why 3 stars instead of 1? This is the most percussive handpan I've every played. Pop the ding and it sounds just like a bass drum. Strike with your fingernails and it almost sounds like a guitar. It gives a nice slap with palms, fingers and fingernails, and it has a cool sound when struck with your knuckles. I won't be leading meditations with this drum, but I'm keeping it because it's so much fun to experiment with different rhythms and beats. I'm happy with the purchase.

My old handpan was stolen. After a few days of research i settled on giving this handpan a try due to positive reviews although i was very skeptical. It turns out, this handpan is better for various reasons.1. Sound quality equal if not better.2. This one is 432hz, which i wanted originally but would have had to pay extra(special order) from my original maker.3. The slaps are wayy better on this handpan vs. my old one. Idk why but possibly this is heavier in comparison although they are both nitrided steel. My old handpan you would have hit the open space exactly right to get a good slap (for beat production).4. Price. This should have been #1 reason. Gladfresit was less than 1/3 the price of my old handpan.5. This handpan has 9 notes vs. my old had 8 notes.6. This purchase came with mallets, bag and a stand vs my old purchase only came with bag.Additional information. The purple is a dark purple fyi. Maybe some are lighter but mine was darker. Im ok with that. Its the sound that truly matters. Also the ding has a bit of a slap as well which can be dampened by using the tip of your finger.Overall i will buy another handpan from this maker. Tuning is on point, resonance on point. Couldn't be happier especially after my last handpan was stolen. Thanks Gladfresit!!!

First of all, it was a good thing that I was home when the delivery driver arrived, because he said he needed a "code" from me in order to make delivery. First time I've ever heard of such a thing. It took a little bit of digging, but I managed to find it, and I was able to receive my delivery. But, this is not well explained online before or after I made the purchase. But, what if I couldn't find it? What if my internet had been down? What if I wasn't home? Would it have been returned to sender or what? I asked the driver these questions, and he just shrugged. Secondly, this drum is by no means loud enough to be called a "hand pan", or to play it with your hands. It doesn't resonate nearly as well as it should. Therefore, it must be played with the mallets, which were included. The problem with that is that literally every single tutorial video I've watched on people playing this instrument all use their hands, and it sounds great. So, IDK how useful this is going to be? I guess it's like the old saying goes, "You get what you pay for!"

The seller contacted me the evening prior to scheduled delivery to say, since handmade, may look different than picture. Arrived a day early (day seller sent email) as a great surprise , and was not “purple “ as pic and description said, but was an incredibly beautiful teal with purple swirls (subtle) throughout! Sound is awesome and very comparable to more expensive options !!! I love the A432 Kurdish D minor! Hard to find and tuning accurate! Many thanks as love the color even more than what was shown. Sound far exceeds expectations! Thanks again 🙏

The drum was perfect. However it did not come with the stand,mallets,wiping cloth. This was sold as a set and given as a gift. Lot of money to spend to be dissatisfied.
