It's harder to tune and harder to get rosin to work on this violin than on the full sized one from Glarry (V402), and there are more options at full size.

Assembly of the bridge and initial tuning is fairly easy, but the tuning does also slip easily and needs to be retuned a bunch at first. I am hopeful that will improve with time, but we shall see. The rosin is difficult to apply, even after scoring the block of rosin, but hopefully it will build up over time on the bow and strings and enable a playable sound.
For the price of $60, you probably can't find a cheaper one that comes with a bow and case. Not having any other 1/4 size violins to compare it to, it's hard to make a comparison. But the little one enjoys just having a violin. So I'm not disappointed with the purchase. It's a very small investment for an introduction to music making.
For the price, it seems like a very good value. The case is nice and has a humidity sensor, and the set includes two bows, an extra set of strings, and more. The bridge must be installed by the user but it is not difficult to do. The tuning likes to slip a little bit right out of the box, but I imagine/hope this will probably improve with time as the strings get used to their stretched length.

Same thing with the rosin- it's a little hard to coat the strings and bow well at first, but will get easier as some rosin builds up on both. Unlike the smaller size violin, this was easier to cover it with rosin and start producing a sound on the strings.
I think the sound is not bad. It's obviously not going to be as good as a very expensive violin, but it seems perfectly adequate to learn on, and I'm satisfied with the purchase.
I bought this violin for my son. It was very easy to get set up and actually produced a great sound without too much trouble. It is a great choice for a beginner for the price.
Even the music store we took it to for a tune-up (didn't end up needing tuning at all) said it was great quality! They couldn't believe the price. Perfect for my 11-year-old.
I purchased this violin as a backup for my main instrument. While it's not a professional-grade violin, it offers excellent value for the price. The tone is warm, and it holds tuning well after initial setup. The case and bows included are also of decent quality.
I use this violin mainly for home practice. The tone is surprisingly warm for an entry-level instrument, and it holds tuning fairly well. The lightweight design makes it comfortable for long sessions.
Difficult to keep tuned. The hairs on the bow break very easily. Violin itself is good quality and the sound is good. Probably a better practice violin than a performance violin.
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this violin. The natural wood finish is beautiful, and the sound is warm and resonant. It's a great option for beginners or those returning to the instrument after some time away.
Overall, I'm happy with it. The case is strong and light. There are a decent number of accessories. I have heard others talk about changing their strings because they weren't staying in tune; after I tuned mine, they sounded very nice, they didn't really go out of tune. Now, to the Violin, the sound is quite beautiful.
Hello,The violin arrived intact without dents, cracks, or warpage.the bridge was also in good condition however a strand of the bow hair was loose and I had to cut it which wasn't a big deal. I also wish the rosin cloth was slightly bigger to avoid application mishaps.other than its great and I'll definitely continue being a customer later down the line and thank for my instrument I'm happy.
My granddaughter wanted to try a musical instrument, and violin was her choice. If she decides this is not the one she wants to learn, it's not out of pocket a lot of cash. Well worth the price.
They say you get what you pay for, but I feel I got much more than that with this bundle. This is a fantastic beginner violin or even just something to have around to fiddle around on. I have never had or played one before so I'm sure there are some critiques I am missing, but from a beginners perspective, it sounds lovely, it's a beautiful instrument, and it really does the trick. Add the case and all of the goodies in it and wow, what a bargain!
The violin sounds okay, but the wood of the tailpiece is literally just painted wood, not even ebony, why lie to customers about that, I expected a good, affordable, quality violin man.
