Surprisingly good sound quality - 6 year old nephew liked it, 11 Nov. 2015

This product was sent to me for review and my initial impressions were of a good quality product. It's made of wood (beech and pine) and a steel sheet and on the whole its heavy and medium sized.

The design on this is modern, fun, retro and classic with fully functional wheels. Although the design on the front is a tractor, in reality it looks more like a bus or a truck.

After using this for 10 minutes, I found that the sound quality was really good all the notes are high pitch, clear and crisp. The smaller the bar, the higher the pitch, the longer the bar the deeper the pitch.

What I like about this is its fun factor, colours (rainbow colours), the notes on the bars are there to guide you along and it helps children start their musical journey!.

My 6 year old nephew liked this and was smiling / laughing as he was using it and hearing the music. He also pulled it with the cord from the front after he had finished. You also get the 2 music...

Disappointed with quality, 14 Nov. 2015

Arrived damaged with wood chipped and paint marked. Description says from 6 months but when arrived box says suitable from 3 years. Couldn't see a CE mark, box is for Chinese not Uk market. I was disappointed with the quality of construction and top and lower notes are completely out of tune. Real shame as child loved hitting it and listening to the notes. Given the other 5* reviews (who were sent free samples to review) I am disappointed and have returned it.

Great way of teaching your child sounds and musical notes, 27 Oct. 2015

Customer Video Review Length:: 1:45 Mins As you can see in the video it is well made, brightly coloured and and great way of teaching your child sounds and musical notes.The xylophone has a string attached, so the child can pull the xylophone truck along behind them.The xylophone comes with two sticks ( so you can play on it obviously) and a pamphlet with songs.I think the company could improve the included music pamphlet by including English song titles and a few more more songs.A little warning in advance though, if your child likes this toy they are likely to drive you completely bananas when they bang on it all the time. Even my 10 year old decided to show me how you can play the Stars Wars and Jurassic Park theme song on the xylophone. 'Sigh.' (There was a lot of humming involved)*I received a free copy of this product, courtesy of the company, for purposes of review.*
