SLINT 12” Double-Sided Practice Pad – 2-Surface Drumming Trainer for Snare Practice, Quiet Home Use, Kids & Beginners

A very good starter kit for kids even adults. Very sturdy and the pad is made of good materials. Noise level is very low. Very easy to setup.

Full-size practice pad. Two usable sides, good rebound and feel. Nice fitted case and sticks included, great price.

Bought this for my daughter as she began learning the drums. She uses it for practicing rhythms since eshe doesn't have a full drum kit yet. It's great to have for beginners and also fairly portable. The stand is sturdy and holds up well. Once adjusted it does stay in place. We've moved it (adjusted) quite a few times around the house and the stand stayed in place. The sticks are pretty good quality (so far as we all know) and she's very happy with it. Drum instructor told us it was good quality also so, there's that. Slightly heavy for a 6 year old, but she handles it well. Cases are good quality and no broken zippers as of yet. The stick case is great and is nice to have the backups ready to go. I might prefer some separation within the case (like slots for each set of sticks) but that is my OCD and overall, works great. Good value and sturdy.

Pros: -Orange rubber feels great for marching percussion playing and has a good amount of rebound. -Orange rubber is relatively quiet. -Actual sound difference in "rimshots". -Pad feels sturdy and well made. -Stand is easy to adjust and is sturdy. -Bags are all well made and fit the items. Cons: -Black side doesn't feel like a playing surface. -Slint logo is a different material and isn't good to play on -Stand rubber pieces rub off on wood. -Stand is only tall enough for sitting and playing. -Stand parts are stubborn for adjusting. -Sticks are poorly made. Overall: The Pad: The pad itself is actually quite a nice pad and could easy be used for anyone looking to practice. The orange rubber side has a nice rebound to it the pad feels well built and sturdy. I wouldn't consider this pad double sided, as the black side really just feels you stuck cloth over a table, especially with heavier sticks. The stand: The stand feels decent, and is nicely included for the price. The tilt adjustment is a little finicky and has set notches rather than one smooth movement. The parts seem to be somewhat stubborn for moving up and down and such making adjustment kind of a pain. The stand also does not raise very high and could only be used if sitting on a stool or chair. The bags: The bags feel generally well made and a nice addition. Each item fits fine into the bags, and the zippers seem sturdy and will last for a long time. The sticks: The sticks definitely feel like they're just thrown in. They're decent sticks but I wouldn't recommend them for a main pair of sticks.

I bought this and several other 10 sided Chinese made drum pads for my middle and high school band room. They don’t all feel exactly the same, but for $20 you can’t get a better deal. I have been playing for 35 years and while I wouldn’t use this as my primary pad, it’s perfect for student use and as a throw around backup.

Very sturdy. Easy to condense

I've been playing for close to 40 years and straight away I really like this pad, a lot. First off is it's not an Evans RealFeel clone. The orange side which I expected to be the same mesh you find on electronic drums, was actually very similar in feel and texture to a budget friendly basketball, but 1/4" thick. 5/5 for everything about that side. The rebound is slightly less than the too much (IMO) that you get from the mesh side of a RealFeel. It's an extremely realistic feel to a snare drum. The sound is also very articulate for practicing accents and getting both hands to sound the same. A+ everything about that side. The other side, which I had expected to be gum rubber, was to my surprise A thin memory foam feeling surface that had significantly less rebound. Great for building chops and is feels not unlike a floor tom. There's also the same amount of articulation and definition as the other side. If I could make one change it would be to make this side just a hair thicker to dial the rebound back another 5%; but that takes it from an A- to an A+ Beyond being an excellent value, I've paid a lot more for pads I liked a whole lot less and I'll probably buy a second just in case. The large difference between the realistic feel of the 2 sides makes this an immediate favorite of mine and I cannot overstay how important that attribute is.

When I first got a hold of the SLINT Practice Pad Set. I was pretty amazed at all the extras it came with. First off, everything was packed nicely, and everything was in a separate bag making it easy to organize. The pad itself is very durable. I dropped it intentionally to see how well it would stand up to falls, and it did very well. The rubber did not separate from the base, and there were no evident indentations or dents. As far as how it responds, its very responsive to a variety of sticks from Marching Snare Sticks to Drumset Sticks to Practice Aluminum Weighted Sticks. The pad held together very well and took a beating quite nicely. Pun intended. The stand it is provided with does the job of holding the pad well, although I would not recommend putting a snare drum on it. The height is a bit lacking, as I wanted it to be about 6 inches higher as I'm a pretty tall person even when seated. The sticks it comes with are a bit smaller than normal 5A sticks, but that's to be expected. They're light and definitely meant for beginners. It also came with some dampeners for acoustic drums, which was a nice touch! Can always use those on gigs when playing on house kits! As far as the overall value, it really can't be beat. The cost of buying everything separately would cost way more than this. This is the best deal you can get if you are looking for a practice pad for a beginning percussionist or drummer.

No 4 inch snare drum , as advertised,just 13 inch practice pad and stand plus sticks.

Got this for my son to practice because we didn't want to invest in a drum set until we knew he'd stick with it—and it’s been a win-win. The pad has two sides (a softer side and a firmer one), so he can switch up the feel depending on what he's working on. It’s got a good bounce and feels close enough to a real snare for practice. The included sticks are decent quality and the storage bag is handy for keeping everything together. If you're new to drumming or want something portable and quiet for warmups or drills, this is a solid choice.

Fantastic bit of kit. Light weight, easy to use, really functional & durable. Perfect for taking out and about / practising without making loads of noise. Sticks are good quality with a balanced feel.

İyi bir simülatör, yeni başlayan davulcular için mükemmel!

Conforme à mes attentes. Me permet de le transporter quand je vadrouille à gauche et à droite pour me chauffer les doigts et poignets.
