 I like themNov 25, 2006
By Paul Cote
I picked these up today and for the price they are a steal. I have blues harps and marine bands and Oskar and I like these because they are easy to play and bend notes easily plus since they are plastic, you don't get the metallic taste in your mouth and I am sure they won't rust! I am not a professional musician, but have played harmonica for many years and find it very easy to bend the notes on these harps.

Great for Beginners!Jan 21, 2006
By J. Nielsen
I really recomend this set for any beginners.
Good playiblity, and they have a very nice warm tone.
Plus you get a nice case to use as you upgrade to better harmonicas.
I am a beginner and like these better than the Hohner Big River.
The Big River has a higher tone and is harder to play for a beginner.
You can't go wrong buying this set at such a good price.

Shock me ! Wow what a deal !Jul 08, 2007

Let me start by saying all I wanted to do with this is use the case for my more pricer harps thinking the harps that came with this set were just toys. These harps are not the best but for $20 dollars it is one H*LL of a deal ! Not toys at all. IMO very good first harps to learn on with nice tone. I'm keeping mine for back up and fishing trips. Trust me, there is nothing better for casual playing or first time users. $20 dollars for 7 harps and a case. WOW. Get one and try it out for yourself and see what I am talking about. Hope this review helped some one out.

Perfect, if you're buying it for the right reasonsAug 07, 2009
By D. Roe
"aspiring author"
This is either a great product or a terrible rip-off. Why you buy the set will determine which side of the fence you fall on.
Right Reasons to buy this Set:
1. You want a case for 2-7 harmonicas. A case that's reasonably attractive, secure, and not enormous (about the size of a very thick hardcover book). Try to buy just a similar case and you'll pay anywhere from $17-$40--so $20 isn't bad. If this is your reason, then the harmonicas are nothing more than props, like the cardboard TVs at furniture stores.
2. You need a case (see above) and you're a little curious what harmonicas in different keys sound like. You're not really going to play them, but you want a loose idea of the difference between them. This means you'll keep the case and throw out the harmonicas within a few minutes of trying them.
Wrong Reasons to buy this Set:
1. You or someone you love wants a harmonica(s) to play. NOPE. These are something less than children's toys. The plastic covers aren't airtight against the comb so you have blow three times as hard to get any tone. The covers are a really cheap plastic and your mouth will not slide against it. And the plastic has an awful chemical smell/taste. Discounting the case, these are less than $3/harmonica--including the case it's probably more like $1.25--and you get what you pay for. Instead, find someplace local (a music store, or Cracker Barrel) and buy a Hohner Blues Band for about $5. Or go to a music store and buy a beginner's harmonica for between $10-$20. Whoever wants to learn to play will get much further with these choices.

 You get what you paid for.May 18, 2006
By John Gallegos
This set is a high quality plastic kid harmonica set . If your a beginner this set will help you understand how different keys work bettor with different songs. At least 2 harmonicas are not going to work. Forget doing any bending. The case is nice and I will be putting some nice harps in it.
