Amazon.com Product Description
Equipped with everything you need to play drums right out of the box, the Ion iED01 electronic drum set is ideal for beginning or intermediate drummers. The pads range from a single snare pad and two tom-tom pads to a cymbal pad and a high-hat pad, each of which sounds crisp and powerful. The kick drum and open high-hat foot switches, meanwhile, help drummers lay down a solid rhythm. The pads and switches are coordinated by the iDM01 drum machine, which delivers 233 natural drum sounds and 50 preset rhythm patterns to keep things interesting. And thanks to the exclusive Dynamic Articulation function, the harder a drummer pounds, the more the tone changes, resulting in a truly realistic performance. Drummers will also dig the pair of headphones, which let players perfect their chops in privacy (a must for small homes or apartments), and the auxiliary output cables, which connect directly to a stereo or PA system for seriously loud drumming. The kit also comes with a single set of drumsticks and all the necessary cables, and is backed by a 90-day warranty. What's in the Box
One snare drum pad, two tom-tom pads, one cymbal pad, one high-hat pad, one kick-drum foot switch, one open high-hat foot switch, one set of drum sticks, one iDM01 drum machine, and headphones.
Product Description
The iED01 features a great selection of 233 realistic, natural drum sounds, offered both in dry form and sampled with our incomparable digital reverbs. Our exclusive Dynamic Articulation feature enables a drum sound to change its tonal content as it's played harder for truly realistic performances. The IED01 features 50 preset patterns with enough built-in rhythmic variations (with A, B and two Fill sections) for composing complete arrangements, and creating and saving your own customized patterns and songs. Plug the headphones, included in the kit, right into the headphone jack for discrete practicing. Plus, the IED01 also provides complete MIDI implementation, flexible programming and editing features and velocity-sensitive pad buttons.

I looked over the reviews from 3 years back until now. Lots of complaints could be perpetrated by the customers themselves........
1. Plastic thumbscrews fall apart....seems that they have been replaced
by metal ones.
2. Drumbsticks broke after 10 minutes.......I am 6'5'', 300 lbs with a
36" waist and a third degree black belt. I beat on these drums everday
and have been for the last month.....nothing has broke.....must be
using those sticks to pry open dads liquor cabinet.
3. Drum pads drop down after continuous play.....the bracketry is plastic
however some ingenuity could prevail here....maybe spray some spray
adhesive to make it grip better, again I have no problem.
4. Complaint about he kick drum pedal echoing...has not happened to me
but there is a .pdf document for the adjustment of the pedals..maybe
has to do with that effect.
5. Complaints of the controller failing.......Have not had the problem.
6. Cheap construction.......I would rather pay $229.00 for this than a
four drum pad machine.......work with this, you can make adjustments
for your style (severity) of play.
Things I liked:
1. Sounds awesome over any of my amplifiers. I much prefer this to a
machine produced drum sound.
2. They don't give you what you don't want...i.e. a cheap drum throne
which wouldn't support me anyway...helps to keep cost down.
3. Nice range of programmable sounds to work with.
4. Add on options available that are not that expensive.
5. Not that hard to setup.....does take some time but not that much.
6. Little kids that come and visit love it.....so do some adults!
I say if you don't want to spend way too much and actually get a name brand (this is an Alesis brand) then I think this is the way to go. Customer service answered both times I called and were at least somewhat helpful. Carries a 1 year warranty also.

Bought this for my 10 year old grandson. I was willing to pay $500 for a real Ludwig drum set but we have no room for a real set and 'settled' for this. We could not be more satisfied. It is hooked into my son's fancy home theater system and it sounds just like a real drum set. Don't think twice, buy it for you or a loved one!
