I am a novice and new to percussion instruments and don't know my way around brand names but this cymbal set looks to be of great quality and the price was affordable for now just to get started, I wish it came with a ride cymbal but I will just get one later. The cymbals look to be made with precision and great craftmanship, the sound great and I'm very pleased with my purchase.

I was a bit skeptical at first when I saw the price but that's what I get for being a skeptic because this cymbal set is fantastic!!! The cymbals sound amazing, they are strong but not too thick so I get the crisp bright sound that I personally like in cymbals, the set comes with a free pair of sticks and 3 free online lessons, I mean.....what more do you want and for only $99.00!!! I've never played Meinl brand cymbals before and like most people, I'm on a budget and anyone who is as passionate about music as I am, knows that it's a very expensive passion to have, especially being a drummer, so for me to receive everything that comes in the package, for only $99.00 and to have the sound that they have, is unbeatable! I looked at some cymbal box sets from other companies and nobody even comes close to Meinl's price and nobody else had as much product in one package deal either. I'm ready to start buying some more Meinl cymbals to complete my drum kit!Meinl Cymbals HCS1314+10S HCS Pack Cymbal Box Set with 13-Inch Hi Hats, 14-Inch Crash, Plus FREE 10-Inch Splash Cymbal, FREE Sticks, and FREE Lessons (VIDEO)

Better than expected. Bought one of these sets for my Daughter's new drum set as add ons. I liked them so much that I ordered a second set for my son's new drum set as well. Came sooner than expected. Very fast shipping. Range of sound is good for their new sets. Im new to the drums but the videos I watched all said that adding symbols should be the first upgrade to any drum set. The Ludwig Set I ordered only came with a 10" Ride/Crash and a 8" Hihat set. I think these will be an excellent addition to these sets. The Free set of sticks are nice quality sticks. Came with a free 10" Splash symbal and a coupon for a free Ching Ring. I'm satisified with my purchase.

Good bang for your buck- even comes with stickers. We use these cymbals for when we have to share our kit with another band or for days we don't break out the good cymbals. It's good to have backups and it's good enough to mess around with at rehearsal. We would not use these for recording or a live scenario.

40 year player, 10 year hiatus, wife wanted a set, we both win. Hi hats are really clean and short, better than average, good bite . Crash is a standard rock crash with good harmonics and depth. The "free" 10" splash is crisp and fits well tonally with the others. This collection is really incredible for the price. I needed a set of cymbals for a practice set/jam set. When I saw these for under a hundred bucks, I thought I would try them because the reviews were great. There is a reason for this. These cymbals sound great. They are matched, so they sound well together. I can't stress how good these sound. These do not feel cheap like some others I have seen. Nice and solid with deep grooves and a bright finish. If your reading this, then you will eventually come back and buy these. You're welcome.

I bought a really beat up kit so my friend and I could start learning drums. After a while we got tired of the worn out hi-hats sounding like garbage cans clashing together so I tried looking online for affordable options. I ended up coming across this set that had a lot more than what I was looking for but for a price I really didn't wanna pass up considering that it wasn't just the hi-hats that were beat up. I got this as a temporary solution until we could afford "better" equipment. When we set these up and started playing with them the quality in sound was huge. Of course considering that the old cymbals were beat up there'd be a difference for sure but i didn't expect the quality for these to be so crisp and nice. For a beginner it feels like a lot of variety to work with when using and setting these up to our preference. No regrets in this purchase and i can't recommend it enough for beginners who are trying to piece things together on their own.

Purchased these to upgrade my sons basic cymbals that came with drumset. What a difference unbelievable. For such a great price it is unreal how crisp and clear the sound it delivers. Purchased a 20" Meinl HCS Ride as well from local store and all together complement eachother perfectly. I am very happy with purchase and thank Meinl for making something so great and affordable for the new drummers in the world.

Rigth on time for christmas. Fast delivery. The box was in excelent condition. The cymbals have a great sound and quality. My 4 years lil drummer love it and was what he expect and more. Thanks Sant Amazon!

These are really good. Not just for the money, but they are really good! Back to the money: best Cymbal for the money--PERIOD. As good as Zildjians or Sabians? No. But 85% as good and 1/10th the cost. If you're a pro and making a lot of money drumming, get the big names. But if you're a weekend warrior or playing for fun, you'd be a fool not to get these. I know it shouldn't matter, but these things LOOK great too! Marvelous finish.

Totally new drummer here and I bought these as an upgrade to the crappy cymbals that came with my Mendini drums. As I said, brand new at drumming but holy cow what a difference these make. I'm certain more expensive cymbals will sound even better, but for the price, I'm beyond pleased with them. They sound much more crisp and warm. If you're unsure, like I was, just buy them. You won't be disappointed.
