Great deal for the price, has a thin tone but gets the job done.
-
It turns out I have been having an uphill battle with the Costco clarinet as I need to press both the low E and F pretty hard at the same time to get the E to sound well or a B in the 2nd register.
-
When adding everything required we would have spent a great deal more so we decided to search Amazon and found this one.
-
Seemed like a great deal in the beginning, however a few months in, some of the screws were loose and something else bent
-
It looks like it is well made, sounds great and the bag and accessories that come with it certainly sweeten the deal.

The reeds are flimsy and cheap, but the clarinet and everything else that comes with it are a good buy

We bought it for my Grand Daughter and figured at this price how could we go wrong.

My daughter loves this the color is her favorite and everyone at her school in her band class wants one this color too

my daughter loved the clarinet and the color blew her away, why spend 175-200 a yr to rent these for school kids when you can buy then for 102.00.

Reviews around price (3.83 of 5)

These clarinets aren't worth their cheap price of around $100.
-
My kid really liked it, got a better one for a cheaper price
-
Good price and good quality for a Clarinet that is not made of wood but hard plastic
-
It's was easy to pick out for my granddaughter and the price was right
-
This is the contribution of those cheap-but-not-bad instruments: they provide the bridge for those who don't want or can't afford expensive price to buy an instrument to learn
