I have been playing recorder almost forty years, in ensembles and as a soloist. I have some very nice instruments, but I have to be careful where I take them out of fear that they will be damaged by weather or, even worse, stolen. I decided to buy a Yamaha YRS-20 soprano because the price was right and many Amazon users had spoken well of it. First of all, I am very impressed by the quality of construction of the YRS-20. It has the feel of quality throughout. The joints fit quite well. There are no burrs from the molds. Everything is nice and smooth. The translucent blue, green and pink colors are very attractive and are sure to please younger players. As for the tonal quality, I'm amazed that such an inexpensive instrument can sound so good. It is bright and clear and easy to hit the high notes. Intonation is quite acceptable. I had a little trouble hitting the lowest "C" in the beginning, but that improved as the recorder warmed up. I recommend the YRS-20 to anyone who is even remotely interested in dabbling in reorder music. In fact, I liked mine so much that I bought four more to use as spares and to give to friends. Yamaha also makes more advanced plastic models that rival some wood instruments and they are also very reasonably priced. If you're looking for a lot of "bang for your buck" in recorders, Yamaha is the way to go. I'm not saying that Yamaha is the only good manufacturer of plastic recorders, but I think you'll find a consistent level of quality with Yamaha that you may not find with other companies.

I bought it for a young child whose grandfather plays a large Chinese flute beautifully. She likes the color pink, so I glad to find it in that color. I learned to play recorder in Elementary School, a long time ago. It's fairly easy, and this instrument doesn't sound shrill, even if you blow a little too hard. I wouldn't buy an instrument just because it's inexpensive, but I think that for the money, it's suitable for a beginner or for someone that wants a recorder they can easily travel with.

My daughter loves it. She did say this one was harder to see the holes on compared to the solid colored version. Overall, for the price these things are great for learning.

I have a 6 year old who fell in love with a recorder bought at the Dollar Store. It was very difficult to play and the notes were not in tune. I wanted to encourage her musical persuits, so I bought her what I thought would be a level up from a "toy" recorder. It was a pack of 3 recorders sold here on Amazon. While better quality than the Dollar Store, the notes were again not in tune and it was difficult to get a good sound from the "instruments". I returned them and decided to just stick with a name brand instrument and bought this inexpensive Yamaha. The third time is a charm.This recorder is easy to get a decent sound out of, and the notes are in tune; they matched the same notes on our piano. Skip the "no name" brands and go with Yamaha if you are looking for an instrument instead of a toy.

I bought this for fun. Watched youtube videos to learn basic songs & got it down pretty quickly! It sounds fine and it’s easy to play. It’s so loud though, might be a bit annoying to others. Looks cheap cos of the plastic pink design but it’s cute.Tip: Make sure to learn how to clean & store it properly.

I bought this for my daughter’s music class. It was very affordable. When I saw it online, it looked cheap but when we got it, I realized it was a lot higher quality than the picture makes it look. It works and sounds great! My daughter loves it!

I played one of these for several years in elementary school. I purchased this one for my daughter, and was a bit apprehensive due to it being clear but Yamaha really came through.The embochure has a nice curve to it so it fits more comfortably in the mouth, and the joints do not stick. Great quality sound, as well.My daughter loves it, much nicer than the brown merangue one I had.

Es buen artÃculo, aunque se ve un poco opaco, pero hace bien su función.

Für diesen Preis absolut empfehlenswert! Die Flöte klingt gut, ist pflegeleicht und verzeiht es auch, wenn anfangs noch zuviel Speichel hinein gelangt. Meinen Töchtern gefällt auch die Farbe sehr gut! MMn ein ideales Einstiegsinstrument!

La flauta cumple con las espectativas, es bonita y el color le ha encantado a mi hija. Sólo queda que aprenda a soplar, ya que si lo hace más fuerte de lo que debe, la flauta emite ese sonido agudo y desafinado.Un consejo para todos, en las piezas móviles "engrasar" con un poco de vaselina, veréis que se pueden quitar mejor para limpiarla y permite girar la parte inferior para ajustarla al dedo de tu hijo fácilmente.
