I hate metronomes…
Tick, tick, tick. They just keep on ticking. This one even comes with a little bell that allows you to mark the beginning of measures as well. It is sturdy, for as far as metronomes can be sturdy, but it doesn’t look as chic as some others.
I don’t like practicing with a metronome and this metronome perfectly embodies everything I hate about metronomes, therefore it must be a great metronome.

Good, but – only lasts approx 20 minutes before needing re-wound!
Absolutely this thing does the job; it's reliable and clear, the casing is light plastic so I would be careful not to let it fall (it might smash!) but it has everything you need from a metronome… except that after less than 20 minutes it runs out and you need to rewind the clockwork.
If you only need to use the metronome in shorter bursts, no problem, but if you plan on keeping time for 30+ minutes of Hanon exercises you will need something with more juice in the tank.

I am going on ratings from customers
I gave this thomann metronome a four star rating.
And trust it works well.
As it is a present for another, therefore i did not use it.

Great piece of kit!
I'm learning classical guitar and I wanted to occasionally use a metronome to gradually increase the speed of trickier bits of music. This does the job excellently and is much more pleasant to play along to than a drum beat. It has a function where you can use a bell to change to different time signature and the pendulum obviously plays the beats within the bar. Only slight point against it is the it was really tricky to open the base of the unit to take the protective foam out.

Needed ajustment
The bell didn't ring the beat. It wasn't a big problem, it just needed a little tweaking of the hammer so it made contact with the bell.

A decent basic
The build quality is nothing special and the sound is a tad annoying and loud, but for what it's worth it's an alright metronome. Nice to use when you just want to play some acoustic guitar with no computers etc.

Precise metronome
I found this metronome quite precise. It's a little bit louder to my taste but that can be easily solved putting it over a padded surface. For transportation you need to open the metronome and fit some padding. Every time I do that I got a little bit scared because you need to press the case until you ear the bottom "pop". I already knew that the case was made in plastic, nevertheless, I now regret not buying a wood one, because, altought the plastic seems to be of good quality, it's too shiny for my taste. I think that the bpm could be printed/marked way better than they are. Overall is a good metronome for what you payed. I recommend.

Physical touch for traditional player
Just for tradition sake. Good quality. Today software also available. But if you are traditional player, mechnical style, this is good enough to keep you in sync.

If you need particular features for acceptable price then this is that!
Overall materials are poor and cheap but this item do it's job well. Can't say how it will be in long term but I like price and it's features. Recommend to buy it for beginners who can enjoy good metronome. Physical metronomes are better then electronic for just seat and practice.

tick tock
bought this last year as i was sick of the digital ticks. they get boring after a while so wanted to go old school. THis fits the bill nicely has 4 different measures and the slider is easy enough to move around.
the only this is, I wish the base was bit heavier , as to keep it a little firmer on the surface. other than, sits quite nicely on my desk.
