Fantastic little instrument for the price. The sound quality is a bit better than I expected for $25. The strings will take a few days to break in (don't expect them to hold their tune for more than a few minutes at first), but once they do the uke hardly ever needs tuning.

I bought this Ukulele from Amazon. I also own a Lanikai LU-21P Pineapple Ukulele and a Lanikai LU-21C concert Ukulele.
But this Mahalo Soprano Ukulele is my favorite Ukulele.
The strings stay some what tuned after a few days of stretching. The sound is not great when compared to my Lanikai with Aquila strings but good enough for everyday practicing. The only string that does not sound as good is the C string being the lowest in tone. The geared tuners works well. The finishing is satisfactory. The included bag is good enough for me. This Ukulele is perfect for students for it has good intonation, playable, and cheap. I am very satisfy with this Ukulele. Best Value for my money.

I have baught this little instrument from this same spot. it is good material but the strings must be tuned every once in a while. I found it hard to enjoy music with the natural strings that had come with it so i had bought Aquila Nylgut strings and it has improved tremendously. I use the standard G C E A tunning and it sounds just fine. The only problem i have encountered is that the inside supports can break easy and it needs to be treated with care. Overall i would rate it a 5/5 considering it is the best starter ukulele.

This product shipped very fast (got it in 3 days) and it was very well packaged. It is a beautiful instrument and perfect for beginners. It does need some tuning which may be difficult if you are a beginner, but there are plenty of videos online that will help.

I bought this for my 4 year old, and he loves it. The memories are worth far more than the $30 I paid for the instrument. Recommended for anyone who has a kid.
