Just incredible...
At first, I was really skeptical when I ordered it. I mean, it is an empty cardboard box that you should be able to sit on without getting injured, and it should produce nice sounds too...it doesn't sound so promising, right? Well, it's all true.
It really sounds like a musical instrument, and most importantly, it is very durable. I weight 96kg and it can hold me without any problems at all. I have a friend who is a bit bigger than me(120+ kg) and he was playing it for about two months almost every day...it is still as good as new.
For this price, you can just get it for playing around, or you could even use it as a reallly weird looking chair hahah. Definitely a good buy... :D

Love this.
I was stunned with how sturdy this cajon is. When you hear cardboard you assume flimsy and lightweight but this is solid as a rock. I'm not exactly a featherweight and I don't have any reservations at all about sitting on this.
The sound quality is excellent and totally usable in a practice/live setting and the best thing is you can fold it up and store it away when not in use.

Yes, sound from cardboard!
I mean.. yes, cardboard giving sound. If you expect sound as a wooden cajon buy a wooden. Set that aside, I really encourage if you looking to have something for jamming and chilling - specially with kids around.
My kids loved it and I still can use for jamming with friends at home.
Amazingly easy to assemble and turn it back to original package if you need to carry around.
Yes, it can handle heavy weight people over it - even people with more than 110 kg.
Delivery quality, product quality for a low price. Go for it.

Amazing for the price! Perfect for trying out cajon with minimal risk.
It's easy to set up, holds a surprising amount of weight, and delivers a pleasing variety of tones. There's even a pre-installed snare for those really percussive tones.
I deducted a couple of points for sound, because it sounds the way you'd _expect_ a sub-€20 cajon made of cardboard to sound.
If you're thinking of trying cajon, or just want to have one on hand without investing in something professional-grade, it's great! The only reason I wouldn't recommend it as a cheap way to entertain children, is that you really want another house to put them in while they play - it's *loud*!
As a bonus, our cats are perpetually intrigued by this box with a hole that they can't quite climb into. Well, they are when nobody's playing it, anyway...

Simply ingenious!
I'm a pro musician, and this inexpensive cardboard instrument serves me far beyond it's main purpose as a light, easy transportable cajon. I use it as a bass drum with a cajon bass drum pedal and miked from the back the sound is incredible. I even use it sometimes for professional recordings of unplugged gigs. A real, punchy, kick sound on the acoustic guitar volume level. Not to mention it's lightness and transportability.. Way to go, Thomann!

A bit of genius!
So handy when we are short of space and need a drum! Our little boy has appeared on stage with us playing it and it sounds pretty good! I'm sure purists would struggle with it but if you consider you can just fold it up and store it easily, it makes a lot of sense!

Great to get a feel of cajon
I am not a cajon player but this cajon really gives me a feel on how it is to play a cajon. The snare sound is good, the high sound (on the edge) not so much.
Pro: cheap and sturdy
Cons: the high sound is not the best, but it is cardboard what do you expect?

Well, it's a cajon!
This cardboard cajon sounds just fine, not really like the real deal but the point is, it is easily carried and can be taken around the world without fear of deteriorating it. Perfect for campfires sessions!
