Moozica 17 Keys Kalimba, Professional Symetrial Kalimba Thumb Piano, Professional Kalimba with High-gloss Finishing Musical Instrument Gift (Acacia Koa-K17K)

I paid the extra and opted for this 'professional' version over the other which cost around £25, since the finish alone looked so much better and I like the contour at either side. I think I made the right choice! Receiving this didn't disappoint. It's a beautiful wood and finish with a sturdy, pleasing build. The tines (the metal bits) aren't as flexible as I imagined and are also of a good, sturdy build and well secured at the bridge. The sound is magical - either played with the nails for a 'sharp' sound, or by the flesh of the thumbs for a more dampened sound. The unit seems to have been shipped perfectly tuned. Already I'm learning 'Can't help falling in love' and thoroughly enjoying it. The unit can be held in the hands or placed on a table for greater resonance. It's ideal to just pick up and play whenever I have a break in work and what's more it's relaxing to boot!The unit comes in a protective case which is of the highest quality - very thick and robust with a pleasing countured design. The inside has padded cutouts to hold the Kalimba perfectly in place. It is advised that the Kalimba is kept in the case, but I have mine on display in my living room and equally this allows me to just pick up and play whenever I wish. Also included is a cloth carry bag, a cleaning cloth, a chain (to hang?) stickers and a hammer to hit the tines up and down to tune.I'm delighted with this purchase and I'm excited in exploring this new, enchanting instrument. I'm hoping to have my song learned by the end of the month. Watch this space for a video!

This kalimba has a beautiful tone, not too expensive and is proving very easy to learn. Even when I don't play anything in particular the notes sound peaceful and mesmerising, making it a perfect activity for mindfulness. Comes with a well-stocked accessory kit and a very nice quality case. The top G was buzzing slightly on arrival but I managed to fix it with the advice in the information booklet very easily. Reading the booklet, I can see that a lot of care and consideration went into this piece. Thank you!

I really agonised over my choice of kalimba, since there are so many on amazon.This one is a fair bit more expensive than most of them but I chose to splash out a bit more and choose this one for a few reasons:- Smooth grooves for hands, to increase comfort while holding- High quality waterproof and durable bag for storage, instead of the weak velvet case that most options have- Thumb picks, not included with many cheaper options- Engraved notes, not just ugly and cheap stickers that other options have- Good value fast shipping options to me in the NetherlandsFor all of those reasons above I am very happy with my choice, and in addition to that it also sounds a much richer fuller tone than other cheap kalimbas I have played with, it is clearly a better build quality than others on amazon. No regrets at all about buying this great quality kalimba

This is beautiful looking and seems good quality which is what I was looking for and why I was happy to pay more for this kalimba. But I’m a bit disappointed that at least 3 of the keys are flat so I have to work out how to tune it before I can use it.

Love the product. The product came in perfect conditions with all the listed parts, nothing missing. The 17K Kalimba itself is elegant looking, detailed design, the wood material and colour seems to long-lasting, looks and feels of high quality compared to other similar products. It comes with a robust and easy to carry case unit, which is padded from the inside. The Kalimba perfectly fits the case which provides a steady and storage. It also comes with a cloth bag, stickers, finger protectors and a tuner. I like that it comes with a booklet giving information to the user, such as beginners introduction, tips, some songs to instantly start testing and using the product and maintainance instructions. Overall this product is highly recommendable, comes with a variety of tools to tune, clean, manitain, carry and play properly, included are some suggestions to improve learning capabilities. It is easy to use and hold due to the curves present on both sides and the sound quality is impressive. I am satisfied with the purchase, worth the price.

If you are looking at this kalimba but are unsure wether to buy it or not ... BUY IT!!!!Okay so I was curious about the kalimba and decided to pick up a cheap kalimba off wish. When it arrived I played it for a week and decided the kalimba was something I was prepared to learn and play.After deciding to look around for a decent kalimba I found this one I bought it and waited patiently for it to arrive.Since it came through the door yesterday morning I've not been able to put it down. It came nearly perfectly tuned (the e was ever so slightly flat 3 quick taps and it was perfect) and the sound is so beautiful. It feels nice to hold and the sound that resonates as you 'pluck' the times is mesmerising. I've been playing song after song on it all day and I'm in the process of learning Hedgewig's theme atm. The carry case that it comes with is nice too a nice place to hold the hammer and another place to hold some paperwork (not much but still that's nice) for those that write a few songs down or to put the book that it came with in. Honestly I cant recommend it enough.

Beautiful quality instrument. Lovely resonance except for the highest notes, but apparently this is normal for Kalimbas with a resonance chamber and can be rectified by re tuning to a lower tone, which I will do at some point. Very good, sturdy hard case with it. Very happy I got this. Highly recommend.
