    • The painted finish looks great and the sound quality is impressive for the price
    • Great quality..stings come out of tune pretty
    • It seems to be very sturdy and of good quality.
    • The first thing we did was go out and buy some new strings, because the original strings are awful (sound quality is horrible if you don't replace the original "plastic" strings).
    • Cheap quality, but it's a toy and my 3 year old likes it.
    • I just wanted something to learn on, the sound quality isn't super important for me at this point
    • Bad quality body, some left over of paint on the body which makes it rough when you touch it in some places

    • It is easy to learn to play and the sound quality is great.
    • Though it is a great ukulele, I will have to purchase better quality strings
    • Decently built, very good quality for the price, however the strings do get out of tune very quickly.
    • However, it seems the be a decent build quality and stays in tune pretty well.
    • My 3yo daughter has since been BEGGING me for a pink one, and with the durability of these, and the quality of sound, you really can't beat the price for a beginners instrument.
    • The quality has been good for most of the instruments, but a few have some scuffs or discolorations on the body.
    • It is good quality and light weight.
    • It isn't the best quality and the black paint on the fretboard wears off, but overall if you just want to play around and sing songs, it's great!***first
    • It is very good quality and, because my older child plays and could tune it, it sounds nice, too.

    • The sound quality was not too bad
    • Decent quality for the price.
    • Quality worth the price payed
    • It comes in this little pouch, which isn't of the greatest quality because it's sort of saggy and really thin, but it works nonetheless
    • Once the strings are replaced the sound quality is great though.
    • A string upgrade to Aquila strings helped significantly, but even then, the Okina still had a far worse sound quality at this price level

    • Good quality, and will probably last a long time if taken care of right
    • I'd have to agree with some of the other reviews regarding the string quality, always seem like they need to be tightened everytime you pick it up, but I think it's a good purchase for a starter and to learn on.
