I've had my GECKO Kalimba for a few years now, and it remains one of my favorite instruments. This 17-key thumb piano has such a beautiful, soothing sound that instantly relaxes me. The craftsmanship is superb—each key is perfectly tuned, producing a rich and harmonious tone. The waterproof protective box has been a game-changer, keeping my kalimba safe whether I'm traveling or just moving it around the house. Playing it has become a cherished part of my routine; it's amazing how much joy and peace this little instrument brings to my day. I genuinely recommend it to anyone looking for a musical escape Read more

What a beautiful little instrument! My teenage daughter wanted this, and she is very happy with everything about it. It came with a hard case and a soft case (fabric protective bag). In the hard case is the little tuning hammer, in it's own little cozy spot in the protective foam. The inside of the case is also a velvety material, everything to protect the instrument well. Comes with a cleaning cloth as described. The sound is gorgeous, resonating nicely. The higher tones are of course not quite as resonant, but everything is tuned properly right out of the box and sound lovely. Easy to hold, small enough to take anywhere while big enough to carry the sound very well. An instruction booklet is included, care instructions, tuning, as well as song pages with QR codes for videos to learn music! I thought that was brilliant. Little stickers included for easily marking the tines with what notes they are, and numbering for easier learning. Sorry for long review, but I wanted to include as much as I could for someone like me who likes to know what they're getting. It's very soothing and relaxing, we are really pleased. This instrument is truly peaceful. Unlike those horrible xylophone toys for kids that make your ears feel like they are going to explode. If you or someone you love suffers from anxiety, this could be a great calming instrument for them! I say that from personal experience 😌 Read more

Beautiful wood, excellent kit. Includes cleaning cloth, basic instruction manual (with links to videos, some easy songs, and further resources available), 3 sticker sheets for labeling the keys if you so want, a bag for all the extra goodies, plus a very sturdy carrying case for the kalimba + tuning hammer. This set is both affordable and satisfyingly complete for a beginner. I'm having a lot of fun learning and transcribing! The wood is beautiful and the instrument is good quality, especially for its price range. As for sound quality: It has a beautiful music-box sound and reverb. There are two holes in the back that can be used for some tone range and vibrato. I did notice that some of the higher keys (B5, C6, D6, E6) become hard to hear and need to be played with either more thumb-force and at the very edge of the key to sound nice. The penultimate keys on both ends (B5 and C6) don't play very cleanly, as in: I can hear some overtones and even some adjacent keys sounding when I play them. I have tried to fix this with the tuning hammer and by shifting the keys a little, but so far, there isn't a good fix. It's not a huge issue in the end, especially for what I paid. All-in-all, an amazing purchase! I'm learning a lot about modal forms and transcribing with this instrument, so I'm advancing my music knowledge with a much more portable (and affordable) instrument than a piano. Extremely satisfied with this product. Thank you so much! Read more

The courier service was good. Product arrived a few days earlier than expected and well packaged. Product looks and sounds good. End tines work. Though expect it to sound softer than the longer tines. Overall, quite happy with my first purchase from Amazon sg. Read more
