GIANTEX Glockenspiel Bell Kit for Percussion, 30 Note Xylophone for Student

My son started percussion this year in 4th grade and this is perfect for him. It's an excellent value over renting. The stand adjusts to his height and holds the bells nice and tight. The bells themselves have a nice crisp sound and the drum pad is a nice bonus. Our only minor complaint is that the included mallets were pretty flimsy and broke quickly.

Good quality easy use sounds great fun to play with

Been perfect for my 10 yr old boy. He uses it daily for band. All was easy to put together. The mallots were a tad flimsy but definitely do the job.

This is a good beginner bell kit for kids. Sadly, the mallets break easily. One week of class and we had to go buy new mallets. (Could just be my son was excited to hit something) During second term of school the bag rips from the bells and stand rubbing on the fabric. We had to replace the bag. It’s been a good kit so far. Sounds better than the rentals. During band bell concerts you can really hear your child’s bells. It has a good round tone to them.

We got this set for my kid who was going into her first year in band. Good price, no issues, and was delivered quickly. The only thing is the music stand is a little tricky to set up, but the playability of the instruments themselves is perfect.

Great price for all that the set comes with. This is a quality product that gets lots of us. It was affordable and more economical than renting the instrument.

Works very well. Everything was in was there. Easy to set up. Fun to play and durability was good. The size was perfect.

We bought this Glockenspiel at the recommendation of my daughter’s band teacher. She has band practice twice in a 6 day cycle. At home she doesn’t assemble the instrument, but rather lays the bells on the floor (without the floor stand). The hex nut has stripped and fallen off. This part is essential as it is what connects the bells to the stand. There is only one hex nut holding the two parts together, which is pretty flimsy and bound to break at some point. My husband is an engineer and has tried fixing it but it all just falls apart again. If there was a better form of connection, we’d have no issue. Kids (and adults) need to be so careful how you screw the stand into the heavy top as the nut will surely strip. We cannot afford to buy a whole new set so I’m unsure what we will do next. I highly advise looking for better, more stable, set of bells.The photos taken are as my husband is trying to work on it -again- but they show you how the whole set is dependent on the thread of 1 nut. Aside from a few tiny screws (that go with the metal plate) not shown in the photos, this is all there is to the set.I’d love to receive a solution from the seller.

I like everything about it.

Kid just started percussion? This is everything you need except the book that your teacher wants all in one package. Gets used daily is the proper instrument so it is the correct volume (you knew what you were getting into when your kid said drums). Even has the notes on the glockenspiel for beginners. Very happy with this purchase.

Ah ha! I figured out the music stand. There are four prongs on the lower part of the stand. The two short prongs are turned down to fit into the slots in the actual glockenspiel. The width of the stand must be adjusted so the prongs fit perpendicular. The two longer bent angular prongs are turned up to hold the music book. The picture lies, it has all the prongs facing down so it can't hold a book. The glock itself has a very nice sound. The mallets are not good quality. Buy better ones.

Cheap product. The support broke after 3 times of use . The seller can’t provide replacement parts.

Good glockenspiel and perfect addition to my drum set for playing certain Rush songs. Looks good, sounds good, notes are plainly marked. Mallets are a little flimsy.
