I love my DD55. It can fill several needs for any drummer of any skill level. It wll lack if you need a performing/recording solution. No one should expect to pay less than $2000 for that type of gear and this is not it.

You could perform live with the DD55 but would need to augment it with real kick drum and cymbals and most likely a snare. You could experiment and learn Midi with the DD55. You can take it on the road as a better alternate to a practice pad. Perfect for impromptu jam sessions at the park or beach(although the onboard speakers are weak). For parents oppressed by the constant sound suppression from new and young drummers the DD55 can provide relief(headphones included). For the money there is NO better money spent exploring electronic drums for the first time.

I have found ways to deal with the pedals which aren't great but are more than usable. Construction of the DD55 is solid although it does appear a bit lightweight. The DD55 is not a toy but an economical solution for several issues any drummer faces at various times during their time skinnin'.

I highly recommend getting a Quik-Loc stand.

In closing I plan on buying a second DD55

I love drums and rythim so I decided to learn how to play drums. I decided to buy something not to expensive nor too big so that it would not became a problem if I got disappointed during the learning process. Well, I have this set for one month now and I'm satisfied with it and it had served it purpose which is to initiate myself in the art of drumming. However, I must warn you, it's a toy, do not be fool by it having pedals and all, the product will not give you the real feeling that more professional drum sets can give. I'm already thinking about buying a serious equipment, but it won't be until I finished my basic learning phase

Sound isn't that great through the built in speakers, but if you hook it up to more powerfull speakers or a guitar amp it sounds really good. For a more realistic feel, here are some accessories to get:

Great electronic drum set for a very reasonable price. Once you hook it up to a larger speaker it sounds like an authentic drumset.

Overall this is a good product; it has a lot of quality features and the pads don't miss. However you should plan on plugging it into an amp because the onboard speakers are bad. The pedals should be a lot more sensitive as well.
