Review on 17" Kids Ukulele Guitar Toy - 4 Strings, Musical Instrument For Toddler Beginner, Keep Tone & Anti-Impact W/ Picks/Strap/Tutorial (Rosewood) by Scott Carlile

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A toy - little more.

So as someone who can actually play and tune instruments, this thing is little more than a toy. It does have working tuning posts, but you can spend all day tuning the thing and as soon as you play it, it goes out of tune immediately. I was hoping this would be something my son could strum on for fun, but at least hold its tune so I could show him what playing a chord looks/sounds like - which is just not possible with this toy. It's like 90% of the way to working, if it could just hold its tune it would be great as a practical instrument and a toy. If you play just on an individual string, it actually sounds great. It's such a shame the thing doesn't hold its tuning otherwise this would be an easy 5-star product. It's fine for what it is I suppose, but has such wasted potential.

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • Small size may cause discomfort for larger hands
