Nice... with a few hickups...
Researched a lot of drums before purchasing this kit. Have had this kit for almost 2 months now. Wanted to get back into playing again after a 20 year break. Not a professional drummer... just like to learn, play and have fun. Went with electric instead of acoustic because of the noise. This certainly meets that criteria. If you get an electric set... I recommend going with a good set of headphones. I went with Audio-Technica.. as this was recommended by many people I talked to. Also, I purchased a 4yr extended warranty through Asurion, offered at checkout, if you can afford it.. I would do it. Anyhow... here are just a few pros and cons I found with this set. Hope this helps...--------------------------------Pros:- Many good sounding kits to select from. Sounds really good with headphones.- Toms, cymbals, hardware all feel pretty durable.- While playing... hitting the toms, cymbals and kick isn't annoyingly loud. (doesn't bother me with headphones on;)- Able to add additional toms, cymbals or kick. Wasn't really sure how to do this at first. Took some time to figure out. I've added two (TP65) toms and will probably add an additional tom and cymbal. You can add a TOTAL of 4 toms, cymbals or kick. You can split the 3 tom inputs and there's an additional input in the kick. To do this you will need a mono cable and a L/R splitter to stereo cable, to split each tom. Once you add the new tom, there are instructions in the included book that tells you how to change the voice/sound of the tom/cymbal.- I cast my tablet to my TV and watch/play along with uToob. I have the output speaker cable on the tv going to the module. So, I can listen, watch and play. Search drumless songs on uToob.. it's a blast.This is a pro and a con... the kit is very compact, which is good for me... but, for someone tall... or accustom to playing an acoustic set, this may be an issue for them.-----------------------------------------Cons:- After only playing for about 40hrs on the set... the kick stopped working. Actually.. it didn't completely stop, I just had to really stomp on the pedal to get the kick to trigger. Changed cables.. drum kits and still continued to have the issue. Because it's still under warranty... I called Yamaha customer service. They walked me through checking a couple other things.. but nothing worked. They said they would get another kick sent out. Ok... great. However.. they didn't tell me it's on back order for over a month. Ok.. so now what. Like I said.. I'm not in a band... I don't have any gigs coming up. But, I do have an $800 kit sitting in the basement that I would like to play. Not much fun playing without a kick. So, I'm going to order another kick. That way I'll have a back up when one or the other break.. I can keep playing while I'm waiting for a replacement.- Ok.. next issue. Now the snare drum is starting to do the same thing. Again, it doesn't stop working all the time.. but it does stop working. I continue playing... probably another 10 hits.. then it works again. I think I'll wait until I have a kick to start playing again before I work on replacing the snare. I'll use one of the toms as a snare while I'm waiting for the replacement on that one.- I don't think this set would suit the advanced player looking to get into an electric set. I would probably go with another brand or up in model numbers - if you have the money.- Snare drum clamp/post that attaches to the frame does not stay in place. After a short time, I find the snare at a 45degree angle. I'll have to look into how I can keep the snare from rotating down. I'm not a hard hitter... the frame is just smooth.- The kick moves away as you play/kick the pedal. I initially put a rug under the kit to help keep the kick from moving. It does have spikes that should keep the kick from moving... but, all this does is tear up the carpet. So, what I had to do is put down rug tape under the carpet -so the carpet doesn't move-, then I put a piece of 1/2" x 6" x 3' wood between the base legs and the kick. Looks hacky, but it does the job.- The app they offer only works with apple. Plus you would need a pricey cord/adapter to use the app. Seems they would make an android app that is usb to micro. Maybe they'll have something down the road, if enough people ask for it.-------------------------------------------------------------I was going to give it 3 stars because of the issue with the kick and snare, but I figure... the pros out way the cons for this set.- 4 solid stars.So, if you're looking for a mid range value electronic drum set... this would probably work for you.That's my two cents on this set. Hope it helps.

Sounds real and sensors lasts long.
I couldn’t believe that more than 1 year later I’d be reviewing this product to say that all sensors still work. This is because I was really suspicious of the durability of electronic drums. This product has really stood my test of time.It sounds like the real thing and even has rim-shot snare sound and cymbal bell sound just where you expect them to be.The presets are fully customizable with a wide range of settings.The materials used to make each piece seem to be pitch tuned such that playing on the hardware without the electronic sound on seems to produce pitch-appropriate hardware sounds that harmonizes well.The relatively small base drum head accommodates my double base-pedal heads just fine.I used 2B drum sticks on this product for many months and didn’t break a sensors on any of its pieces. Really durable!

Drum pads not delivered!
I received the frame and module, but no actual drum pads. Very disappointed.

Still waiting on rest of kit. Bummer
Bought this as a gift, received 5/21. Currently missing the rack and sound module so we can't even set it up or use it. A second package has not been confirmed or received. Been trying to resolve but will likely return the product if I cannot get the missing items.

Yamaha DTX 522
Cool little electronic set at half the cost of some of the other top brands. Has some nice sounding presets and you can tweak each drum with general settings like sustain ,pitch or size. You get what you pay for though. The rack is hard to keep in place and parts come loose quickly. Also the drum cables are extremely cheap and thin. I already have 2 cables that will no longer make a connection and nothing is visibly wrong or damaged

Always pay a little more for longevity and quality
Bought this drum set finally after years of debating if I should spend the amount it’s worth. In all honesty it truly is what your paying for right out the box it was neatly packaged with instructions and all not a single piece missing. It comes in two separate boxes and a little time is taken to build but that’s the point when you care about something. Yamaha really is the best quality out there with Roland right behind them but if you want the full package then spend a little more to get the hi hat stand included as well. I truly love this set and Im happy to have finally bought it!
