Review: Would recommend - Great quality.
Review: Cute, fun and functional - I thought maybe this xylophone had the high rating because of the brand, but it's not just that. The sound is clear without being too loud. The storage for the mallets as the antennae is brilliant and my girls love these. The only issue I've noticed thus far is a little bit of paint flaking from the mallets, but it's not super noticeable on the mallets themselves. Fun little surprise for my kids.
