Disappointing sound and totally overpriced but the kids like it

My daughter (13 months) got this set for Christmas. Unfortunately, I had not looked at the other reviews and was also extremely disappointed by the poor sound - and it is perhaps very pleasing to the adult that the instruments are fairly quiet, only exception: the Chimes.

Unspeakably I find really the xylophone, as others have noted: 2 tones sound the same, the third record sounds higher than the second again and overall it is completely impossible for even to create a melody. In addition, the wood is so soft that after the first night, Macken has been played in the order it is (my daughter has struck with the rattle on the xylophone, but not have to with the mallet in my opinion as a set endure). From the beaters the ball came off.

The set as a whole is beautiful and appealing and the children (my daughter and her two cousins ​​(19 months and 3 years) found the set super and have played a long and happy with it, so I won 2 star. I would next time probably anyway for decide otherwise.
