I am blown away by this ukelele especially for the price. Full disclosure, I don't know how to play one yet, but I have been searching for a good quality starter instrument for my child and I was shocked since this is only $40 but has such a great sound quality, sturdy feel, and extras included to help learn how to play. It also has a very nice, shiny finish and doesn't look cheap at all...it actually looks/feels much more expensive than it was. For comparison: my toddler loves music and the grandparents got her a "toy guitar" from amazon for christmas. That one is clearly a TOY, cannot really tune it, sounds fake, has plastic strings, and was $23-25 whereas this ukelele is a real instrument, beautiful quality, durable, real strings, etc and is only $40. It is too big for a young toddler to use (and she wouldn't be able to learn it just yet anyway) but my husband and I will be trying it out and eventually holding on to it until it's appropriate to teach our child.

Its is definetely value for money with all the kits that it comes with. I hesistated ordering pink in the beginning but the paint is of very good quality, highly recommend to try out different colors. My 8 year old niece carriers it around & acts like she is a professional now. Seeing her so happy make me happy!

I really like that the bundle comes with everything you need. You get the digital tuner that is great, the bag, the picks, additional strings and a strap. The finishing and the details of the instrument are really nice and is very easy to start playing no matter if you are a beginner or advanced player.

I wanted to teach myself to play the ukele. After reading reviews I decided to give it a shot. The product is beautiful and of great quality. I am so happy I purchased it.

Choose The classic color and it looks quite cool.
This seems similar to my friend’s expensive one.
Got the tuner to easily tune the strings.
The sound seems nice and the surface is quite smooth.
My child can hardly handle the strings.
I can try to learn first and teach him.

For the price, i honestly think it is the best ukulele guitar. My 2 years old loves it, although doesn't know how to play but we teach him to pull the strings and he loves the sound. The quality is so good. It has added the beauty to the playroom . Well made
Cyrah
this came with everything!

Bought for my daughters birthday which is at the beginning of November so it hasn’t been used yet. I was super impressed with the fast delivery, as well as the quality of ukulele itself! My daughter is going to be so excited, it came with everything it said it did. The tuner works great my husband already tuned the ukulele.

Good quality for the price it has. For beginner, it's great. The sound is good. It comes very well equipped, with its case, a tuner and its corresponding battery, four picks and a strap to hang it on.
Cran01
This is the uke my daughter's teacher recommended, and as far as I can tell, it sounds great! I don't have any experience so I can't compare, but I can say I really like that it came with a carrying bag, extra strings, a neck strap, and a great little tuner.

My 13 year old had some experiences playing a uke in school, and ever since he has been asking for own of his own. He absolutely loves this one, and his band teacher was able to tune it easily for him. No complaints, sounds nice, great price, 5 stars!
ByMJ
I chose this Ukulele to start and I am satisfied
It is very suitable to learn the basics and start perfecting
the strings relax initially but it is normal, you have to tune the Ukulele several times during the first uses
Samuel
In relation to quality price is amazing, it comes with case, reposition strings, picks and tuner
Jessie
It has everything. You don’t need to buy one single extra thing to start playing. The tuner works great, and there’s free lessons everywhere. It’s also very small, which is a pro for me.
Diliara
Great for my daughter!

Nice size for travelling

It comes packed in a nice box, which you can also give as a gift. The workmanship looks absolutely high-quality and the bag is also stable. It was important to me that the body is made of wood and not plastic. It is easy to tune and play. The sound of this ukulele is very nice too. Since then I have practiced every day and play better and better and I have to say that I have absolutely no regrets about the purchase.
Sumo
I bought this as a gift for my 6-year old nephew on his birthday. He is a music lover and wants to learn to play the ukulele. One can choose from a variety of available colors. I chose my favorite color which happens to be his fav color! This is his first ukulele and he loves it, and I am happy!
Kelly
For an inexpensive ukulele like this, I am blown away! The sound is really nice and it feels comfortable to hold. I use to play a lot and quit for a couple of years. Well, I needed some music in my life again so I got this. Comes with everything you need to get started, a tuner, extra strings, carry bag, cleaning cloth, ukulele strap. everything. The picks that come with it are guitar picks but I never use them on ukuleles anyways. Even has a little chord chart on the back of a tag to get you started. Now, to a beginner, the chord pictures may be easier since it shows you the correct fingers and all. I'm used to reading tabs so it was a little weird for me but most normal people will look online anyways.

I’ve received this and Set it up. I couldn't be more excited about it. The Ukulele appears to be of very nice quality and sounded good right out of the box. I’m very impressed that it came with everything needed to get started on the Ukulele, a strap, a tuner, extra strings, etc. Even a chord guide!! I used the tuner to tune it up and it sounds great. Now I’m going to go learn some chords!
sandra
I really like the way this ukelele sounds. I don't know how they can do it, but Donner has really included everything a beginner needs in this low-priced kit.
With a beautiful and well-made uke, bag, extra strings, strap, and tuner, I pulled it from the box, turned on YouTube, and got started. Can't play a song yet, but I am really enjoying the practice.
Brenda V
Purchased for my granddaughter who is a beginning ukulele player. It had so many accessories that she loved. I think it is a good value for a beginner ukulele player.
Katherine N.
Lovely quality. I bought for my two year old son for his birthday and he and his four year old brother are over the moon with it. It will be a gift that is treasured for a long time to come.

Love it for my 15 year old learn to play now everyday

This Donner Ukulele makes a nice hiking Ukulele or a first Ukulele for a young child. It has a painted laminated wood body that is extremely light weight making it easy to hold for young kids or carrying with you as you hike through the woods, which is why I bought mine. The laminated body also means you don't have to worry about temperature and humidity shock as much, making it good for outdoor use. I wanted a low cost Ukulele for hiking as well so if it were to get broken as my last hiking Ukulele did, it would not be of a great financial loss to me. While this is not going to be the ukulele with the most resonance or sustain, it will certainly be fun for kids because of the many color choices available. Which would probably be more important to a young player anyway. The included accessories of a spare set strings, picks, Ukulele strap, carrying bag, cleaning cloth and tuner make this a pretty nice complete bundle having everything a kid would need to get started. The most impressive thing for me about this Ukulele was it didn't have any issues with sharp fret ends that I have had on other low priced Ukuleles.

I have a bunch of ukuleles ... about 60. This little soprano has quickly become a special favorite. I love the color and the gloss shine. It came perfectly set up and plays and sounds great. Nice gig bag. This ukulele really feels nice in my hands and I don't know exactly why that is. It's one sweet uke!
Mikki Rice
I LOVE my Donner ukulele! It sounds great, came with a fabulous strap and tuner, and the strings stay in tune very well! I highly recommend this product and this company!

Mi hija amo este ukelele for beginners , pense que el material sería mas (cheap) pero es bastante bueno dedinitivamente value the money , y si compran la aseguranza para este ukelele mejor cubren casi todo tipo de daños .
Kris
My 13yo loves this thing, she’s been learning guitar and since this is so much smaller, she feels more confident with strumming/chords/etc. The package included picks/strings/tuner, very pleased!
Ashleigh
This is a great beginner ukulele for those who are unsure they want to commit to learning and playing long term. It's a great way to test it out and see if it's for you. It would also be great for kids.
I used this for about three weeks and realized I really wanted to learn and be serious so upgraded to an Enya acoustic/electric. I dont regret buying this little uke as it allowed me to see if I like playing or if it was even my thing.
I will say the sound is not great. It has a distinctive tinny sound compared to a nicer uke.
If you want to find out if you like playing with a small investment this is the uke for you.
Zachary
I bought this for my daughter thinking that if she trashed it (as kids are prone to do) I wouldn’t be out a ton of money. To my surprise, this is a well made Uke! I play it more than she does! The finish is perfect with no runs or overlapping the fretboard or bridge, no burs on the frets, and the tuners keep it tuned. It took a few days for the strings to stretch and hold their tune. We play this every day and tune it about every couple of days. The sound is right up there with my Flight and Kala Ukes! I'm really impressed that this is Donner's entry level model. I'll be checking out the rest of Donner's line for a future purchase.

Granddaughter wanted blue guitar who is 4 years old. We decided on this blue ukulele for it fits her perfectly. She’s a beginner and loves the blue color. I also bought 4 more for the other grandchildren in different colors. I absolutely recommend DONNER UKE for its sound & color and it comes with tuner, extra strings, picks, etc. (a kit) Everything you need to get started.
I also purchased a beginner UKE DVD and book that explains the notes, where to place your fingers to create each note. that we will need to get started and play for a long time. There is also youtube that will show you. I’m learning to play as well and this fit is good for me too. Easy to carry around with you. Beginner Uke and not a toy. We are proud to begin on this UKE and we will be using this one for many years to come. It seems all the grandchildren love theirs and now want to get together with their cousins to practice. I bought different colors for 3 -10 years old. The 2 different browns are nice too.
Thank you for the nice Ukelele DONNER
J Cooper
Looks greats (black finish) and sounded beautiful once I put new strings on it. I could not get the 1st string tuned even close to A. It broke around E#, and I went slowly over the course of two days to even be able to give it time to stretch between knob turns. I encountered similar problems with the 4th string reaching high G. Better quality strings weren't too expensive and made a huge difference. I'm a beginner with a ukulele but have done acoustic guitar before - I found this instrument to be easy to work with andgood for beginners. Keep in mind that the strings need time to settle in before being able to keep tuned for longer periods of time. Ukulele strings are notorious for taking awhile to stay tuned. A new string will be dramatically out of tune by the time you've tuned the rest, especially for the first couple of days. I promise it's the process and not a problem with the ukulele itself.
Silviu F.
Good quality, sturdy and the sound is clear (I don't know much about musical instruments, though), I bought it for my 3 year old because she played one on holiday and really loved it. She loves this one and enjoys playing it often and we all want to take tutorials to learn how to actually play it right. :D
Happy with the purchase
Carlingo
My sister really really loves this uke it is super cute have some really helpful stuff that go with it. It is great for beginners!
Julie M. Brady
This is a very nice ukulele for beginners. I got it for my niece and I know she will love it! It comes with a cute strap, picks, and a small tuner - everything you need. Can’t beat the price to try it out and see if you like playing!
Anna
Excellent Ukulele. Bought for my daughter who is just learning. Easy to tune. Lovely colour. Great accessories. The turner that comes with it is not the best just used app on phone. Very prompt delivery
Karine
Love this! We got two for our 6 and 7 year old daughters. They are easy to play for little fingers and have a great sound!
Sarah
It’s a good starter ukulele. Bought it for my 9 year old daughter and she loves it.

This thing is pretty good. I was surprised that it held its tuning well and its sound is pretty decent. Aesthetically speaking, I opted for the black, and as a beginner ukulele it is mostly what you’d expect (looks-wise). The headstock has the name painted on and the black paint is good. My favorite thing is the tiki strap. How cool is that? The tuner threw me through a loop at first b/c I didn’t read the instructions to see you press the power button a few times to set it to “U” for Ukulele. That made it much easier to tune.
It also comes with some standard nylon strings, a cleaning cloth, and a sack. This is not a gig bag but an actual tie-string sack. I’d rather pay a few bucks more for one with a gig bag, but that’s just me, and they probably knew this was beginner for most people. I’m betting with some fluorocarbon strings it might sound even better, but it still has a pretty good sound. It sounds and plays well, the frets were not sharp/sticking out, it’s smooth, and it has decent tuning machines. I’m hoping it’s durable since it’s a gift for a kid, but overall, I’d recommend it.

This soprano ukulele is a beautiful deep purple with a glossy finish that comes with everything you need to get started as a beginner ukulele player! The chromatic tuner (that comes with the battery!) is one of the best that I have used. It has various settings for different instruments and when you set it for the ukulele it tells you which string you should be playing for that note (ie 4G). The pivoting head of the tuner is a fantastic feature! It also comes with a neck strap that clips into the sound hole, an extra set of strings, 4 picks, a drawstring gig bag, and a microfiber cloth. There are 2 tags that come on the uke, one that tells you how to properly care for it and the other is a picture chord chart to get you started with how to play basic cords. Truly a great bundle & value for the price for anyone looking to get started playing ukulele!
