Excellent value for money
I have been playing Harmonica since the 1970s and have owned a number of different brands over the years. Unable to resist the price, I purchased a few of these Harley Benton harmonicas, in various keys.
Pros: The harmonica comes in a small, plain, plastic case (That’s no longer a given with more expensive harmonicas) and is wrapped in paper.
It seems to be well made, relatively airtight and in (Checked on a tuning app) tune.
I was also able to get semi-tone bends on all of the correct holes, which is nice since, often, it is nearly impossible to do so on cheaper harmonicas.
The sound is OK (for the price it is fantastic!) It may not be as good as harmonicas costing 10 times as much but it is certainly not 10 times worse. Unlike some other cheap harmonicas, this does not sound like a “cheap squeaker”.
Cons: It would have been nice to have gotten a cleaning cloth with the harmonica, but I suppose for the price one really cannot complain.
In conclusion: The Harley Benton harmonica, like many other Harley-Benton instruments from Thomann, is good value for money. If you just want a harmonica to begin learning on, harmonicas in various keys to accompany other instruments, a good low cost harmonica to practice your bending techniques or simply something to practice with, to “save” your more expensive harmonicas, then the Harley Benton is definitely worth a try.

Hi friends! I previously bought, not knowing that it was just the usual harmonics in the store that I needed, but I managed to blow them with great difficulty and the sounds were not very good.
Today, when the harmonica "Harley Benton Blues Harmonica in C-Major" came to me, I immediately began to put out drawings similar to my pentatonic guitar. This is an amazing thing for ridiculous money, I think I will buy other harmonics with other notes from Harley Benton. The sound of fire !!!!!!

The quality of this tool of mine is excellent!
I use this tool in my home studio to record my music and I also just play for fun.
I am very pleased with my harmonica!
The package arrived very quickly and everything is in good quality!
It sounds very comfortable in the hand and my blues strumming became more often thanks to this!
Thank!

I'm not a professional Harmonica player, but I can fairly say that this piece has a very nice sound and so easy to play.

Great product for a great price!
There are for sure some points on the Harmonica (like sound) that could be better, but considering the price, it is a great product with good sound. It's perfect as a pocket instrument and to pass time as well as when you're starting with music. I would of course recommend it.

A perfect place to begin if you're a newbie or even intermediate.
I've had a lot of fun with it since it arrived.
It sounds good & feels sturdy enough to take a beating.
And for the price I am astounded + it even comes with a little plastic carrying case. It's a great instrument to have fun with so I feel safe recommending it to anyone who would like to begin playing.
Thumbs up Harley Benton you did well with this one.

Really good entry-level harmonica
I bought this harmonica as a complete novice, gathering from the internet that C-note is a good point for beginners. From my (rather subjective) application, casing and sounds are really good for the price point.
I also had to pause learning for almost a whole year, and restarted very recently. The quality has not gone down one bit. Really pleased with this, which prompted me to write the review.
Worth every cent!
