LEKATO Electronic Drum Set, Portable Electric Drum Set for Beginner with Quiet Mesh Snare Drum Pads, 220+ Sounds, USB MIDI, 2 Switch Pedal, Electric Drum Kit with Sticks, Travel Bag

Excellent value, which is why I am reviewing at four stars, though I cannot live with the foot buttons controlling bass drum and high hat. I am replacing them soon because the bass misfires, and more, and that is why the star got knocked off. This features computer control and offers a wide range of great sounds. You can adjust sounds to a degree, yet the primary settings are more than adequate unless you need different sounds. You have an AC connection (rather than bulky and costly batteries or a battery pack), and the USB and MIDI make these compatible with other devices, such as a computer and a controller. This box contains a low-profile electronic drum set with the functions of cymbals, snare, and toms. The sound produced is excellent with the “cymbals” in logical positions in relation to the “toms”. Not perfect, but you will get the hang of it. These are well-made and will last quite a while. I bought a beater pedal for 3/4 of a hundred. I’m not sure if I will replace the high-hat pedal, but it is an excellent idea. Compared to cost-effective models, modifying this one is the best idea due to the superior function of this musical instrument. This is an exceptional product for something super-lightweight that some people think of as a student kit. I am planning to transport it to the holiday celebration this November to accompany my husband’s guitar playing. The drum throne is excellent; it is so comfy! I weigh 243 pounds. This is a heavy-duty seat, and I will gladly recommend this whole setup over all the others I have researched! Your budding drummer, like me, will enjoy experimenting with a drum set that mimics the real thing so well that there is no need to spend more than a thousand dollars for a full-featured electronic drum set if you need a tabletop one of this quality. You can fit this drum set on a heavy-duty TV tray, or you can use a drum stand and create a makeshift setup. This is an excellent DIY setup. You can view many reviews on YouTube that will give you more info. This is it, and I will return to it when it becomes old, or get something quite similar. This is highly playable, looks beautiful, and has EZ assembly. This is fun to play! This is an excellent gift. I recommend Amazon’s gift service for this set, as well as the extras I mentioned, at a total cost of $75-200 for decent quality. ------ UPDATE: We replaced the drum kick switch with a velocity-sensitive drum kick trigger with a regular drum-kick pedal. It was a few dollars over $100. All sounds fantastic! Look for the only one under $100. We adjusted the cymbals, and they are now more sensitive and true-to-life, albeit with a few limitations due to the nature of this instrument. ------ Enjoy!

Good variety of sounds. Decent selection of pre loaded tracks to play along with. Easy to set up. Very compact. Works very well. Easy to get a drumming fix without having to store a full kit. Looks like it would be good for laying down tracks if you're into hobby recording. Coach mode is meh but it should make you a better drummer if you put in the work. Id recommend this for anyone wanting to try/learn drumming but isn't sure about diving into the whole rabbit hole of drum kits and drum kit accessories. Headphones are a plus for napping babies or cranky neighbors on the other side of a thin wall. Sounds great through my el cheapo keyboard amplifier as well. Small footprint for tiny spaces. All around it's exactly what I was looking for. Feels pretty good. It's not on par with skins or intermediate to high end mesh electronic heads but for what it is, it's pretty good. It is a lot of fun and it's a great place to start for a beginner. 14" snare stand holds it well. Get you a drum throne and some better sticks and your on your way. It would be fine to set on an ottoman or a short table and a taller chair. The foot pedals are remarkably good for switches. Very responsive and they feel accurate. It's been 20 years since I played with iron Cobra double bass pedals but these are certainly functional until you have an idea of what you want to upgrade to if you or your little drummer stick with it. This would be a very portable kit WITH volume control to bring to an open mic or small venue. Might be a good addition to a small venue setup if you're a host MC looking to cater to percussionists? I got this one to get my blue moon fix for drums and I figured it would be a good place to start if I can get my little into making/learning music with me. He likes making noise. His rhythm needs some work ;) This feels durable enough that it should survive toddlerhood. I opted for this one because of the raised hi-hat and ride. I like that they are in a more natural position than other similar kits and very adjustable. The smaller drum heads should make for more accurate strikes. I cannot do rim shots on this and I don't think brushes would work very well but unless you need that this is everything you need and nothing that you don't. At least to start.

The good: It’s small, inexpensive, portable, the triggers are good and there’s no crosstalk. You can edit sensitivity and dynamic curve of the triggers and it works perfectly as a MIDI controller using Logic/garageband on an M1 Mac. It fits on a snare stand and is well-built. There is an aux input so you can jam along to music/lessons. There is a stereo headphone out and mono line out with independent volume controls. The bad: The kit and HH pedals are just terrible. Make it really hard to play. Constant mistriggers and double triggers. The module allows for an upgraded kick pedal trigger, but no continuous control hi hat. I am upgrading to a Yamaha KU100 for the kick and a PDL-HH191 for the hi hat. The module is not the most intuitive, but the manual is easy to follow to tweak settings. The built in sounds are fine. My main criteria is something small and inexpensive that does the job. This does it. Tweak the settings, replace the pedals and it’s a great little kit. I would give 5 stars if the module allowed for continuous hi hat control.

This kit is sturdy, very responsive and incredibly portable. I highly recommend this for a travel kit for any level or as a great starter kit before you decide to invest in a whole drum set. I would recommend you buy a snare stand with it - make sure it supports up to 14" diameter. I have seen some bad reviews about the kick drum switch - but I have found it to be pretty responsive - it just takes a little practice. And keep in mind, you have an output available to add your own pedal and switch if you desire. The high hat pedal works just fine. This kit is very easy to customize - each drum, pedal or cymbal can be voiced and volumed to your choice of play style. Headphone jack works well - make sure you have a long enough wire so it is not in your way while drumming. The kit sounds good with my Fender Amp. Lastly the feel of the drums and the cymbals are very nice. The snare is especially responsive. It is pretty quiet in headphone mode as to not disturb the neighbors. Great buy.

We are really happy with this drum set! It doesn't come with a stool or headphones, but I bought each for about $25. The sound quality of this drum set is excellent, we are very pleased with our purchase! Makes an excellent gift, lots of fun to play, sounds amazing for the price we paid. If my teens keep up their practice, I'll buy them an expensive drum set, but this will last a very long time, since the sound quality is very pleasing to listen to and satisfying to play!

I think this thing is a good value. You can get them from a few brands. The cymbals and snare have two zone connections. The cymbals are only using a single zone and do not have choke, however, the module supports choke. I checked this by swapping an Alesis cymbal with choke and the choked and zone worked as expected. That will probably be useful for someone. A person could make some new cymbal arms that extend back a little father and use some inexpensive used 10" cymbals with choke. The pedals are switch type so completely useless. I'm actually swapping the module for an Alesis Nitro Pro I had lying around so will be picking up better hihat pedal support. An eDRUMin would probably be interesting on this device.

The large snare got my attention, as the other portable drums have small pads. This has the size and feel of a real drum with a double layered mesh that gives you the action of regular snare. The other pads are large enough and spaced so that you feel like you’re playing a set of drums. The cymbals and high hat bars are elevated, which again mimics nicely a regular set. The sound is fantastic. The kick pedals are really good as far as portable kick pedals go. You have the option of hooking up a regular kick pedal, as well. There are a lot of features on this set, all of those you would get on full size electronic drums. I have been looking for a portable set to practice on and this fits the bill. I will probably be using this more than my regular set because of the convenience and the near replication of the regular set. Although it is advertised as good for beginners, I think all skill level drummers will appreciate the quality of this set. Highly recommend.

My whole life (well, up until 32) I was an air drummer, constantly tapping on things. Then a year ago I purchased this for myself, and it’s one of my most favorite purchases. I use it every single day, and I really feel like it has helped me grasp drumming concepts and skills. It’s very fun to play, sounds incredible, and I love how you can connect your phone so you can play along to drum less tracks on YouTube. Love the customizable features. It’s very durable, and the sensitivity of the pads feel very accurate. It’s very compact. I currently keep mine out on a snare stand because it’s so small, but the carrying case would make it very easy to store if needed. Simple setup. After I had played with this thing for 6 months, I found myself in a Guitar Center, and floated over to the drum section, curious if the skills I learned on this portable machine would translate to a full size drum set - and they did. Felt very satisfying and encouraging to know that the work I put into the portable drum set translates to full size. I want to also give a shoutout to the Lekato customer service team. I have no doubt that if you run into any issues or concerns, they will assist you in any way you can. I would put this set as one of my top 5 purchases of all time. That’s how much I love this thing.
