Only bad thing is the that the pedals doesn't have velocity control in them. It has also built-in speakers and it works also with batteries! The included sounds are horrible, but hey, my kids love it too.
I have a Yamaha DD55, which has kick and hh pedals, and MIDI in/out. The included samples aren't too bad. The only two gripes I have with it is that: 1. velocity is a little touchy, and definitely isn't linear. 2. there is a bit of "bleed through" (e.g. if you hit the snare hard, you may heard a little cymbals) Other than that, works great. -TimH
