I finally broke down and bought myself a Gemeinhardt 3OB because after three months, I had a lot of trouble with certain notes (mid E, F, A, and high C). I had watched several videos that said often, beginners on cheap flutes quit, thinking that they are at fault for the lack of quality. I'm here to tell you... it's absolutely true. So - still 5 stars, still worth it for a beginner, still stand by my original review, but know that once you really start to understand how hard you're working to produce good tone, it may be time to move up into something better. Eastar's flute will have a place in my heart as the start of a great adventure, but after three months, five days a week, one hour a day... I finally had to move up and now? I've got a tone like butter... (or at least beginner butter. Ha ha ha!) Original Post: ... I'm still playing it and enjoying it. A few things I'll touch on, which don't make this flute less than five stars, but are considerations for anyone wanting to buy a flute. 1) If you are acidic, (like me and my wit - ahahahahahaha), expect this thing to begin to tarnish within two weeks (playing ~5 days a week). After nearly a month, the point where my left hand index finger holds the flute is black, the 4th finger key is black, and tarnish is showing up on my lip plate and other contact points and keys. Flutes do tarnish, and it doesn't affect the sound, but it's something to keep in mind as the price of this flute costs less than it will cost to get the tarnish removed. (And yep, I clean it after every use - inside and out.) 2) It is a very bright and brassy sound. This isn't a mellow flute, for that, you're going to have to up your price point significantly. I don't think less of it for that simply because... I got a flute for 75 bucks. 3) It's 75 bucks. Don't think you're going to get a $3000 sound out of it, or even a $300 one for that matter (though watching a professional play this flute on a YouTube video did make it sound maybe $200-ish). Make your peace now. It is fantastic for adults (like me) who are wanting to try out the flute to see if it's an instrument they'd like to continue. It seems like it'd be stellar for elementary school students (4th-5th grade) who are starting out as well. But - if it breaks, you're going to be buying a new one, as the price to repair it will be over the price to just buy another one to start out. So why five stars? Because I was ready for a $75 dollar instrument. That said, it impressed me with the workmanship. It is actually pretty solidly built, which is great. It comes with everything you're going to need to take care of it. It comes with a stand. It even comes with a pair of gloves so while you're cleaning it, you're not just getting fingerprints all over it again. It has a decent sound and, hey, did I mention it's $75 dollars? It is well worth that price. If you're on the fence, go for it. You won't be disappointed.

Too much of a coincidence** A: I agree - my daughters instrument had to be sent in within 5 months of very light use. The instrument was very well taken care of. Now I am told repairs are going to cost $250. I am back to square one and wish I wouldn’t have thrown $125 down the toilet. I should have just bit the bullet and spent the money on a better quality / known brand of flute. **Q: This would be for a first time student in 4th grade. Would this be suitable?** A: My 5th grader got to play this flute for about 5 months.. 20 minutes a day two times a week. Now we have a flute that needs about $250 repairs and I may as well have thrown away my money. I would NOT buy this product. It’s cheap and will either nickel and dime you or you’ll be back to square one needing an instrument after a few months... and have wasted $120 on this one with nothing to show for it. **Q: is this a good flutw for intermediates as well as beginners?** A: Our flute is produced for player who wants to advance from beginner to intermediate performer, it meets the requirements of beginners for tone and pitch, as well as requirements of intermediate players for timbre, especially the silver-plated EFL-2, which sounds better. **Q: Does it come closed holes in the package ment?** A: I'm not sure? But I don't think so? I bought it for my granddaughter when she started band classes in middle school ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After almost a month... *by T***L on March 18, 2019* UPDATE: Nearly three months in...

Ordered it 2 days ago and it came so early! Also the flute itself is really great, amazing tone, clean, good sound quality, and overall it’s good! Also I do recommend as a flute to buy this as last year i played on a di zhao flute for my band but moved to tuba so i didnt expect much for this flute but it met my high expectations! The playability is also really great! Can go really low and high with great tone! The size also its great for just practicing and hobby! ## Frequently Bought Together - Eastar C Flutes Open Hole 16 Keys Flute for Beginner Kids Student Flute Instrument with Fingering Chart, Cleaning Kit, Stand, Carrying Case, Gloves, Tuning Rod, Silver, EFL-2 - Essential Elements for Band – Flute Book 1 with EEi | Beginner Flute Sheet Music and Online Resources | Hal Leonard Instructional Songbook for Students and Teachers - Leinuosen 24 Pcs Silicone Flute Plugs, 8 mm Soft Flute Hole Plug Key Cover for Most Brand --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/88208726-open-hole-16-keys-flute-for-beginner-kids-student-fingering](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/88208726-open-hole-16-keys-flute-for-beginner-kids-student-fingering) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
