I bought this primarily for my 3 year old grandson to play while I play my “good” instrument He hasn’t destroyed it yet! It has decent tone and plays pretty comfortably. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that the strings go pretty flat overnight so it needs to be retuned every time he picks it up. The tuners are smooth and positive, tho. Hopefully this will get better as time passes & the strings get broken in/stretched out. The case (bag) isn’t much, but at least it’s something, its the backpack rigging comes in handy for toting.

I love this ukulele because I can put it in the bag and just go without worrying about damaging it. The sound is fine, it sounds a lot brighter and not as full as a wooden ukulele. You will have to constantly retune it and that’s my only real gripe

Hermoso ukulele. Lo pedí para poder llevarlo a todos lados y no andar con el pendiente de llevar el de madera. El precio estuvo fenomenal, bastante más bajo que en otras tiendas. El sonido es agradable y dulce. No mantiene por tanto tiempo la afinación.

I purchased an orange Waterman and received it a week ago. Every time I pick it up I tighten one or more strings to get them in tune and play a song or two. Each day it requires less tuning. I expected a tuning and string stretching period. What I was surprised to notice was the strings were getting higher off the frets as the days went by. Sure enough the front of the box is now a little concave and the back is a little convex. The bridge is tilting forward and is being pulled by the strings and the neck is bending up so the farther down the neck you look the higher the strings are off it. It is still playable at this point and if it doesn't get worse I will keep it. But be warned, those other reviews about bowing are not a joke or a fluke. Most of the other reviewers who have given it high praise may have written their review the day the received it. (updated 9/03/18) I am returning it and have decided to try another product made by Outdoor Ukulele that costs about $100 but it is made in the USA and you can talk to them about the product if you have any concerns before you purchase.

Great uke for the money. I bought this one to leave up at Pumpelly Cave in Mount Monadnock so folks will have something to play up there!

It's adorable and I wanted to love it, but as another reviewer stated, the bridge bows and pops out the moment it gets close to being in tune. I've spent over a week stretching the strings and tuning (and I even restrung with a new set of strings just in case), but it keeps happening. This makes it unplayable, and pretty frustrating.
