I'm not expert enough to speak to other situations, but if you're considering purchasing this saxophone for a young, beginning player, I highly recommend it. Two reasons: #1 I'm familiar with other instruments but know/knew next to nothing about the sax, so I asked my daughter to have her teacher give me an honest opinion. The music teacher said that for a beginning musician, this sax is more than adequate; he felt that it was probably good enough to last a musician into high school band. Again, while a serious, experienced saxophonist would probably want a better horn, the "Mendini by Cicilio" is fine for a beginner. #2. The cost as compared to renting from my local music store. Obviously this will vary from place to place but I live in Utah, where things tend to be comparatively inexpensive. That said, to rent my daughter a sax would have been $55 a month. We could return it any time, or after paying $1100 we would have owned it. But at a minimum we would have needed the rental for nine months--one school year--for a total cost of $495. That's about $300 more than it cost to purchase a sax outright. Yes, the rental was a better quality Yamaha, but see "reason #1" above for why that doesn't matter. The only benefit to renting was free repairs, but unless someone is seriously careless with the instrument that's not going to cost anywhere near $300. In other words, as counter-intuitive as it seems, it was much cheaper to buy this saxophone than it would have been to rent one for a single scholastic year. This doesn't even consider the 10 free reeds (they run about $2.50 each, retail), or the tuner/metronome (like the sax--not top quality but certainly good enough to get you started; probably a $15-20 value). The only hardware I'd suggest upgrading immediately is the neck strap: the one included is uncomfortable and has actually come unhooked a couple times just by the weight of the instrument. To sum up: this is a very decent saxophone for a very low price, much lower than anything else I could find. I am extremely satisfied with this purchase, as is my daughter, the nascent saxophonist. It still sounds like an angry goose when she plays, but her teacher assures me she's doing fine, and that she has a good instrument to learn on. Review: AMAZING SAX, be a little patient its worth it - 100/10 worth it if you are willing to be just a little patient!! I have prime and received the sax within only a few days. Upon receiving, the mechanism in the G# was broken and the sax was completely unplayable. I requested a replacement because I’ve seen reviews of this brand and it’s legit. I received the replacement (before even actually returning the original mind you, they did want backup payment in case i didnt return it in time which is understandable.) just only a few days after the first saxophone. The second one is perfect and I am so happy! I have wanted to play this instrument for so long but always saw it out of my reach. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to play saxophone but cannot afford over $1000 sax.

The neck is the greatest and most immediate problem, as notes below A in the upper register will squeak if that neck valve opens on a press of the octave key. It is clear that nobody at the store bothered to set it up, and you or someone at school will have to figure it out. I don't fault the supplier much, though, because you are going to have to get used to things going wrong. When I was a kid, we didn't send out instruments: there was a senior student in charge of tinkering. So take satisfaction in joining a time-honored tradition! The next thing that went wrong was, pieces of cork mysteriously coming unaffixed from the linkage. It seems that some connections are doubly cushioned unnecessarily, with cork AND a silicone grease fitting. The grease dissolves the contact cement that keeps the cork attached. So if you would prefer the cork, get on that right away. I missed the opportunity, but the instrument seems no worse for wear, after mopping up the mess with some alcohol and cotton swabs. One silicone cushion had to be trimmed with an X-acto knife, because it was hitting an adjacent valve, in the right-hand palm keys. Lastly, my young player tried to stand the instrument with the neck hanging over the back of a chair, and dropped the whole thing, knocking in the right-hand pinky keys and putting the adjacent linkage out of whack.The teacher was going to send it off (I guess she felt responsible for poor supervision and instruction, in this case), but I got out my tools and had it up and running the next day. Just coat posts with hot-melt glue to protect them, before cranking on them with pliers. I also found a C-clamp useful, to compress the posts toward each other, and with blocks of wood make a vise for the bail of the neck valve. Screws were all good quality, handled with my pecision slotted screwdrivers. So my child is honking away happily, and we're both proud. This horn sounds great compared to supposedly better instruments, and has a great look with the Nickel option. Value justifies the effort. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mendini By Cecilio Eb Alto Saxophone - Case, Tuner, Mouthpiece, 10 Reeds, Pocketbook - Green E Flat Musical Instruments - POCREATION Plastic Alto Saxophone Reeds, 3pcs Plastic Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece Reeds 2.5 Parts Repairs Accessory Black - adorence Saxophone Neck Strap (Metal Swivel Snap, Neck Pad, Adjustable) - Alto Saxophone Neck Strap, Tenor Sax Neck Strap- H11 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1256277-alto-saxophone-for-beginners-e-flat-alto-saxophone-for-musicians](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1256277-alto-saxophone-for-beginners-e-flat-alto-saxophone-for-musicians) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
