XDrum Primero Cajon Negra including Bag (Snare Sound, Box Drum, Drum Box, Wood)

Well, I've been enjoying my new cajon for a few weeks now - it's the first one I've actually owned. (borrowed/tried a couple previously)First impressions - seemed a bit 'lightweight' but is sturdily constructed nevertheless and being light in weight is all the better for toting around. Carry bag likewise, but serves the purpose for carrying with ease and protecting from surface scratches and light knocks; obviously a padded bag would be preferable but included in the purchase price so really can't complain :)Love the vaguely Art Deco look (very 'me') and it is certainly eye-catching. It gets attention wherever I play it.Playing-wise it seems to have an incredible repertoire of sounds with great 'bass' and top end. Even the non-tapas surfaces are 'playable' too, including the top! The internal stringing gives a decent enough 'snare' effect. I have played it at open mics both acoustically and miked up and it has plenty of volume.All in all a very happy and satisfying purchase at a bargain basement price.Please note: the opinions expressed here are based on my own limited experience, however a friend (who is a professional drummer) is so impressed with it (envious) he is ordering one!!!

My wife wanted a drum kit. Not exactly practical in our house. So I got her this beautiful cajon instead. It's brilliant. It makes a noise. You can sit on it. It's a coffee table when not in use. I'm guessing we could even use it as a bird box on the side of the house. It's that good. We are really pleased with our bird box / cajon. Brilliant value. Highly recommended and so versatile

awesome instrument, I love it, kids love it, so easy to use, move and store, Wife hates how loud I can get it and as a first time user I didn't quite realise just how well it can sound and how different it can sound depending on where in the room you put it and what type of room you put it in, kitchen sounds awesome but beach is also cool, recommended to a couple of drummer friends who have rigidly stuck with the full kit, they are mega impressed too, and for how cheap you can buy one, the quality is second to none.

the book was in a foreign language and we had to buy another one on-linethe seat pad was a piece of thin foam, cut raggedly and not squareotherwise OK

Great sound, arrived earlier than expected and it looks gorgeous too. Anyone looking to get their first time cajon or is simply looking for an affordable yet good sound this is it!!! BUY IT!!

This is not as described. It's made in China and shipped from Germany. The cusihion pad is not even stuck on! Awful cheap sound. Looks like it has been put together by a 12yr old child. The manual is in German (only). Waste of time!

Great instrument, looks really nice, had a great sound and came equipped with a tool and a book to familiarise yourself with the drum. Bag was also great quality.

Product is very good, and delivery very quick, however this product comes with a German handbook which isn't very helpful to English speaking customers. I notice other reviewers mention this too. Why not include an introduction / training DVD with it?

Semplice ma benfatto

der enkel macht grosse fortschritte auf dem teil

Sonido perfecto ideal para regalar y muy muy completo.

Très bon produit pour commencer

Son vraiment très très très moyens on ne sait pas différencier les frappes pas de groove , sonnait mieux dans la vidéo, préférer un modèle un peu plus onéreux ce ne sera pas des sous perdus! Parfait pour un débutant toutes percussions confondues, certes, PAS DU TOUT pour un habitué des percussions comme moi, il sera déçu je pense en grande majorité, c'est mon cas. plaque avant trop fine. Beaucoup trop fine on a peur de passer au travers. Pour le prix c'est normal, mais c'est vraiment pour les débutants pas certains d'arriver à gérer les frappes du jeu au cajon ses subtilités sonores ou aimer cette percussion, ben avec celui ci encore moins! Pour enfants je dirai c'est tout et encore, pour un percussionniste qui connait déjà son touché tapez plus haut directement dans le budgets, manque de de profondeur et donc presque pas de différenciation claire des différentes frappes, sonne trop clair tout court brouillon, je trouve! Après sur les rocks etc, ça fait plus batterie mais de petite toute petite facture hélas, ce après plusieurs réglages différents, rien n'y fait c'est un mauvais cajon qui gâche justement la subtilité de cette percussion, je déconseille fortement. Mauvaise finition, vis fragiles etc, du vleck comme on dit chez nous
