Love this pad
This pad is great. It’s not very quiet, but the point of a good pad is to feel like your playing on an actual snare drum. If you want quiet then you should get one of those pads with like 10 inches of rubber on the top. And I think it feels pretty realistic. It’s easy to tune with the included tuner. Great rebound. Love the color. Very durable and sturdy. I was scared at first it would be to small but nope. Perfect. I would definitely be buying the next size up too. I honestly love this pad. And it isn’t too expensive. Most high end pad is 50 at least. But this works just fine. Gets the job done. If your looking for a cheap pad this is the one. Also I know this doesn’t mean anything but it’s so pretty. The plastic head is a little reflective. And the black and red cors are vibrant and solid. It has been a year and it’s still like new. Not really any scratches. Not holes. Hasn’t lost its tune. Y’all, this pad is awesome.

Itâs Great
It works just like all the 5-star reviewers said it would. It is small, but I read thatâs good for target practice for where my daughter is hitting the head with the tips of the sticks. Itâs not meant to be sound-absorbing, and it isnât. It has a good amount of sound to hear if you are playing the song correctly, and a much better feel than the random objects she was previously playing off of. But itâs not as loud as a drum. It even screws on to her xylophone stand if we take the xylophone off. Itâs also so portable and was a good price.

This is perfect for my needs and I love it!
I’m no professional at drumming but this is perfect for my needs. Life got busy for me and I stopped playing drums, plus moved into an apartment and couldn’t bring my drums with me 🙁 . This practice pad is perfect to help me relearn the drums again, starting with simple practice. I like Remo, I feel like it is reliable. This practice pad is built sturdy. I don’t use it on a stand, just the table and it works great. It doesn’t move or slip around at all. I love the sound of it- but I’m the type of drummer that just loves to be loud and hear what I am doing. I also love the gritty feel of the surface. The bounce is perfect! Not too bouncy, not too not bouncy either. Sure Remo is not top of the line for drum products, but this is built well, even heavier than I thought it would be. Very happy with this purchase!Note: The video I uploaded is just a simple one meant to simply show the practice pad’s natural bounce and sound. I hope that it can aid you in making the decision to buy it or not 🙂

Good deal
My son joined band this year and this is the exact pad the school was renting fir the year, for twice the price. I figured I would look into buying it and I am glad I did for this price, considering he will now own it instead of having to give it back.Since neither of us know much about practice pads, I can’t compare it to others. I can, however, say that it is nice to have quiet drum practice sessions! The pad seriously keeps the noise level at a very tolerable level.The pad seems very sturdy, like it could hold up to a lot of abuse. I would imagine that is the reason that the school uses this brand, so it can hold up to the abuse a bunch of 5th and 6th graders put it through. I still would like to find a case/bag of some sort for it. My son carries his back and forth in a cinch sack.I would definitely buy this again if I needed to.

Great pad. Can be loud.
So the best thing about this pad besides it just being a great, bouncy drum pad w/replacable head is that you can screw it on top of most cymbal stands so you don’t have to buy a new stand for it. You can also just prop it up on your lap or a table or chair and play. The coated head provided can also support some brush word (although I’d recommend the larger pad if you are going to do alot of that. Most importantly for me it has that it has rims so you can practice rimshots or use the rim to substitute for another drum or cymbal/hi-hat. This will create noise – not as a great as real drums – but if you live in an older apartment it may bother neighbors. I have another pad (from a different company, I’m sure Amazon sells them as well) for late night playing that is softer but doesn’t have rims or a coated head for brushes.

A little louder than the muffled practice pads
We bought two practice pads for our grandkids. One was virtually silent. This one had a little more bounce and sounded more like hitting a cardboard box. Very happy with purchase. Kids can make noise during the day, and when Mom and Dad develop a headache, there’s a second quiet pad to keep the 5 and 7 year olds busy.

When struck in the centre of the pad is sounds like something is loose inside, the sound is terrible. And in general it’s loud and the sound is not pleasant. Also it cannot be tuned as it’s appearance may suggest, when tried to tension the screws the whole plastic body warps but no change to the sound or head tension present.It’s a big disappointment for such a big drum brand.
