Nice for specific things
I like chinas 01.10.2019
Very affordable, great trashy and aggressive china sound, but tend to break easily. There isn't much consistency from one cymbal to the next, you can buy two of these and get very different sounding cymbals. Not suitable for stacking due to the bell shape and size, unless you have a hi-hat stand to mount it on.

For the price, good cymbals, but be prepared to buy these more often than more expensive ones. At least for me that's been the case, I've had probably around 15 Wuhan/Zultan/Thomann chinas (they're pretty much the same) in sizes from 14" to 18" and they've all broken within a year or so.

thoman china cymbal 40cm

My opinion is very controversial but you will see.
About the cymbal ? we have to put down some finish expectation , this is a traditional or popular market Wuhan (China) material , it means that if you care to much about finish please don't buy it because you'll need to correct some finish and do some esthetic job.
BUT!!! if you want a real CHINA sound and not something beautiful who only imitate the real sound !! this cymbal is for you.

Great value!
Anonymous 10.08.2015
Not the best china in the world of course, but the price made me expect a whole lot less. I've only used it for practice so far and that works just fine.
I guess the true test will be actually recording it. And how long it will last.
I figured the price was so low if it was bad, I wouldn't be out much.
Pleasantly surprised though.

Anyway, if your on a budget, this might be it.

Amazing sound for an affordable prize

Granted I don't play live so I can't really share the durability of this cymbal but in studio, this sounds amazing it's so easy to get a good sound in a mix. I'm actually going to get one more of this to experiment with.

Good China for a reasonable price
Pepijn 25.11.2017
This china cymbal is a good choice if you don't know if a china will fit your style. It's cheap and has a nice sound. The quality is very good and you won't break it very easy.

To sum it all up: If you want to try out a china but don't want to spend a lot of money buy this cymbal.

sounds incredible but lasts nothing
Alessandro Spenga 04.11.2024
i went to a big studio for a drum session and the engineer was amazed by the sound of this cymbal. unfortunately the build quality is terrible and it will break easily.
i would recommend the zultan rock beat china instead. has great sound and will last much longer.

Good quality for it's price. Maybe is not the best china cymbal in market in this price category but for home usage or practising it's okey. Used it for couple a month then it just bam.. dead!

The sound is great. At the second concert cracked

The sound is great. At the second concert cracked
China took for rock concerts. At the second concert gave a crack in the ring. I neatly cut it, but at the third end the crack went further along the ring. I think it will not save anything. I'm so sad. The sound of this China really liked me

Nice one
Indrek 16.02.2015
Almost another cymbal that is suprised me. But not so good than Millenium. Cymbal is not soft and flexible and sometimes i knock my wrist when hitting cymbal. Maybe i am beginner. Sound is fast when hitting hard but leaves long silent humming noise. But that cymbal is strong and i think it last long. Cheap china that works fine.
