A waste of money. This item looks nice but it just sways in the wind without the tubes hitting each other to 'chime'. Also it's much smaller than I expected.
These windchimes are alright for the musical purposes I purchased them for, but they don't sound very akin to real studio windchimes.I'm not sure whether these are meant for music use or an outdoor decoration.The company name is "Woodstock Percussion" so I assumed the former, but it really can't be told.
When you hang it by its cord, the entire chime moves in circles. The idea is for the metal rods to move, which chime, not necessarily the wood holder. This is a beautiful sounding chime. Nice circular movement, but no chime. As we live in an area where there wind is the norm; we thought this would be a nice addition outside of our kitchen window, but after watching it spin around and not chime, its a disappointment.If the string attached to the top of the wood were sturdier/thicker, it might limit the movement of the wood and let the wind move the chimes. It is not loud and sounds almost like tinkling glass.Here's the catch: need major wind to have it work. We moved it to a number of places which were open to the wind.
Received this as a gift and it is not too large.so not too loud.The chimes are very nice and have a soft sound.Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed.Perfect for that small space.
I just wish it were a little louder or something. This looks very pretty but it doesn't make a whole lot of noise, maybe it's just me and I don't notice it.
