There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The earlier version lives at grandma's house now (where my clever sibling retires loud toys), so I was able to compare the newer model with the older.
Basically, the new model is lighter and the pieces don't fit together tightly (or as well) as the older model.
This can lead to some frustration from the little ones, but if they are really into the concept (and really into music), they will make it work.
Leading the way (literally) can help. We play marching band, and my little one switches out pieces as needed, to mimic different instruments. Even one or two pieces will do for her. At 2 and half, she is slowly learning which pieces to put together to make a particular sound, and has even figured out which pieces hold together the best.
It's true that this is not a perfectly manufactured toy with pieces fitting together with Lego precision, but for the concept and open play possibilities, this toy is a great value for the $, and we would happily purchase this again for our own or as a gift for others.
PS Teach your child how to make sounds by singing or making sounds through the tubes, so if the mouthpiece were to mysteriously disappear for a day or two (parents need a break sometimes), it wont be a big deal. :)

Wir haben ihm diese "Trompete" in Einzelteilen in den Adventskalender gepackt, was gut ankam.
Er hat Spaß, sie immer wieder anders zusammen zu stecken...so ist sie mal eine Querflöte, mal eine Trompete, mal ein Saxophon...
Der Klang ist natürlich nicht mit einem echten Instrument vergleichbar, für diese Plastikversion aber absolut ok.
Wir würden sie wieder kaufen.
