I was serious about wanting to learn drums but on a tight budget and I also wanted the ability to be able to record the midi into recording software for songwriting. I use this kit in my bedroom studio and it surprisingly doesn't take up that much space and half folds away nicely. Overall I am really happy with this product and would recommend to people who are on the fence about spending more if they are just starting out or drum for fun but still want some qualities to the feel and playability. I was going to go for one of the cheaper MPS models but I'm really glad I spent the extra money on this version for the mesh heads. They really do make the playing more realistic and overall it's a great kit and funto play.

Pros:
The quality feels really good.
It took me around an hour to build, the instructions are basic but are easy enough to follow.
Easy adjustable once setup to suit your playing needs.
The module sounds are good for the price, there are some really fun sounds and I've enjoyed drumming along to the in-built songs.
The latency via USB-MIDI is negligible if any at all.
Works perfect for recording midi drums into recording software.
The module is simple to use and works well. It is easy to adjust the midi notes and drum sounds of each drum, with user savable presets.
The frame has notches in its clamps which help it fix in place and when built it is very sturdy.
Sensitivity is good. (not high grade professional but good)
Feel and playability is great.
I have beat the hell out of it for 2 weeks and all still works as if it was out of the box.
The kick drum pad picks up both of my double beaters perfectly!

Cons:
You can't trigger the rim shot at the same time as the snare sound. I didn't know the rim shot was even included so its more an added bonus that isn't quite perfect.
Instructions for building are very basic.

I have already decided that I want to expand this kit with more pads and I'm going to order them shortly. I am really glad I did not go for a cheaper model and spent a little more as I think I would have been disappointed with just normal pads and not mesh ones. I would rate this kit as a cheap mid-range electronic drum kit. Great for people who want to start playing but don't know how much to spend to get a good feeling drum kit for a cheaper price. You get a lot of features and good quality from this brand at this price point.
