Functions beautifully with a nice, pleasing, crisp "tick tock tick tock" with a perfect duration. The sound it makes is not a little click, it is around as loud and lasts about as long as a typewriter key (if you are old enough to know that sound) so the sound it makes is very satisfying.If you listen closely you can hear a VERY slight difference between the "tick" and the "tock." I don't know if that's deliberate or just a side effect of the construction, but I like it.The pace is adjustable by sliding the weight up or down the pendulum's neck. If you are careless like me you might accidentally slide it up right off the bar, but it can go back on with a little work.I don't have another metronome to measure it's accuracy, but you set "beats per minute" by sliding the weight up and down and aligning it with the scale printed on the tool's face.The metronome eventually "winds down" after maybe 15 minutes and you have to wind it up again using a little key that comes with the unit and stores right in the unit's face so you won't lose it.The volume, tone, etc are not adjustable.I like the look of the metronome. It's slightly more modern looking than the old wooden kind, while still retaining the class and timelessness of a "real" metronome.The unit has a nice cover that snaps onto the front when the unit is not in use. It looks good and keeps dust off the face and moving parts.If I could change anything about this metronome I would build in a feature for the cover to snap into place on the back of it or something for when the unit is in use so the unit doesn't accidentally get separated from the cover. It's like taking the lens cap off a camera: too easy to "set it down somewhere" and lose it.All in all I am very pleased with this metronome.

First of all this is a Metronome not a Metronome and Tuner and does not need batteries it's a wind up. It's loud enough to practice only if you're not playing you guitar amp too loud, for acoustic guitar and piano it would be ideal. It is easy to adjust the tempo and it's very portable. If you want a Metronome that's functional without all the stuff that digital Metronomes offer than you have your tempo keeper. It's very simple to use and worth the money.

If you want a compact old-school metronome that is fairly easy to set, then the WITTNER Tuner model 834 is worth considering. Be aware that you're paying a premium for the brand name though. My main complaint is that it doesn't feel durable and seems a little flimsy actually. The winding key stores conveniently on the front face of the unit. Thus far it has worked well so I hope it keeps going and I am careful not to overwind. If you're serious music student, you may want to invest more in a more durable wood case metronome model that can last you a lifetime. If you don't mind digital, then there are apps for you phone that will save you the money and are even more versatile.~ Kort

I had bought a metronome previously and hated the sound of it! I was apprehensive to buy another one, but I did because the price was good and I liked the size was cute and small. I am really pleased with it the sound is so nice and it’s easy to use. I cannot attest to the accuracy of it but it works just fine for my kids piano playing.

Awe. Such a cutie lil thing.It's well made. The sound is loud enough to hear well with minimal effort. Instructions are very general but the instrument is fairy intuitive. C;mon if you're learning music you gotta be smart enough for this. Unless your Mom is forcing you.I checked quickly the timing with a random online tool. It seems accurate. Another plus.A specialised music store in town sells and recommends this brand/model for beginners. So I am happy with it.Recommended.

El tamaño es ideal, no es grande ni en exceso pequeño, fácil de usar, se oye perfecto en una habitación mediana. Me gusta la calidad y el acabado tipo piano.

Very expensive for such a simple device, but works great and looks better then advertised.Color is deep burgundy, not red.

It's a metronome. It does one thing and it does it well. What has surprised me most about it has been how intrigued my younger students are with this mechanical metronome versus the electronic ones. They find its whole prehistoric retro mechanical wind up vibe to be fascinating and engage with it much more positively than they do with electronic metronomes. They view it as some sort of neolithic relic to be marvelled at, and consequently they pay attention to it more intently than phone or tablet app versions. Who knew that a simple wind up metronome - the constant companion of my music school days - is now suddenly cool? I'm all for anything that gets students to more intently listen to their own playing and this does that surprisingly effectively. It is a permanent fixture in my teaching studio and I use it for nearly every lesson at some point.
