Overall this is a pretty good deal. At this price point, it's either the mars shell pack or this and I would highly recommend this if you are a beginner or intermediate drummer looking for that package with everything you need. However, as much as I may praise this drum set in this review there are MULTIPLE faults which could have been easily avoided. The tom mount is not as stable as it may seem. Don't get me wrong this tom mount design is probably the best in the business outclassing DW and Pearl by fucking miles! But depending on how hard you hit sometimes the tom mount can sink back into the bass drum ever so slightly. Beginner drummers might not find this an issue but once you find a setup that you are comfortable with you just don't want to let it go and with this sometimes it can be hard ESPECIALLY if you are a metal drummer. This is not an easy DIY fix but you can get alternative tom mounts and in fact, if it is the speed you are looking for or you are used to a "rock setup" then I would recommend getting a tom stand. This is like your typical "rock setup" except you basically have an extra rack tom. Usually, good ones go for around 9000-12000 rupees. I would not recommend spending anything above that. If you do buy this drum set I can tell you straight up that Evans heads seem to sound the best. The soniclear edge provides enough sustain an attack that if you put on a 2 ply head then add moongel you will still get enough resonance to make it seem ambient and realistic rather than altered or triggered using a trigger and a VST plugin. The cymbal stands are sufficient however I would recommend replacing them after a few years or immediatley depending on how heavy your cymbals are (they work well with a set of Sabian XSR's). The bass drum pedal is probably the best one that comes with the drum set and is comparable to Pearl's P930 single pedal. Except this one is smoother. Otherwise it stays in tune rather well and is quite durable and the finish is good.
