Good for a beginner
If you are a drummer looking for your first drum kit, this one is a good option. I got this one back more than 2 years ago, and I still use it while playing in my room.
Pros:
1. It is really compact, esp. when it comes to the bass drum. Good option if you're low on space. Makes having a drum kit in a bedroom possible.
2. The lightness of the drum rings and the rack makes transportation very convenient.
3. The rack itself is pretty solid, and can potentially be used with other toms (with the right fixtures, of course) if you're someone who prefers mounting toms up on racks instead of the bass drum or on cymbal stands.
Cons:
1. The plastic fixtures on the shell where screws tighten feels fragile. I broke one of the screw folders while tightening the bass drum, and it wasn't even too tight.
2. The sound is obviously compensated for, in comparison to a regular kit, since the toms are bottomless and the bass drum is ultra-thin.
3. The setup is more constrained than a regular kit, since everything is mounted on a rack.
4. If you love sitting too high on the throne (I used to sit almost 70 cm above the ground), you might find that the snare drum a bit too low.
Conclusion:
I use it as a practice kit in my room with mesh heads and quiet cymbals, and for that purpose I find this kit reasonable. But, if you're looking for a kit for anything more than that (jamming, gigging etc.), this kit will most likely not serve the purpose.

This Kit is fine for practice or as a first drum kit.
I have this kit set up in my practice room and they are absolutely fine for rehearsing in a small space. Let's face it, they were never going to have the depth in sound that a regular kit would but they are not bad either. The kick drum is probably the weakest part of the kit but the snare sounds great especially when the skins are replaced for better quality ones. Personally I think the blue plastic makes it look a but like a toy but I sprayed the blue parts black and fixed that. The hardware is great quality too for the price. It's got me out of a few situations where either the stage is too small for a regular kit and it folds up easily for easy transportation. Based on appearance it might look a but flimsy but it's steady and strong.
